Plugin Library

Your data belongs to you. Plugin Library lets you download your library at any time, whether to keep a copy or to use it elsewhere.

Your data, your choice

We believe in data portability. You can export your data whenever you want, on any plan — free included — at no charge.

What's Included in the Export

Your data export includes:

Plugin list - The plugins in your library with their names, brands, categories and types
Notes and ratings - Any notes and ratings you've added to plugins
Your tags - The tags you've put on plugins
Favorites and wishlist - Which plugins you've starred and which are on your wishlist
Ownership details - Version, license type, purchase date and price, and authorized machines, where you've filled them in
Date added - When each plugin went into your library
Your account - The email address and display name on your account, and the date you signed up

It does not include your settings — things like your default view, how you group your library, your DAW and role, and your notification choices stay out of the file.

The file is your whole library

However many plugins you own, every one of them is in the file — there is no page limit and nothing is left out. The totalPlugins count near the top tells you how many the file holds, so you can check it against the number of plugins in your library.

Export Format

The export is a JSON file. There is no format picker — JSON is the only format the app produces today. If you want your library in a spreadsheet, you'll need to convert the JSON yourself.

How to Export

Open Settings

Click Settings at the bottom of the left sidebar. On a narrow screen, open the sidebar with the menu button first.

Scroll to Data Management

Settings is a single page of sections. Scroll down to Data Management.

Download your data

Next to Export Library, click Export JSON. The file is prepared and downloaded to your computer.

Regular backups

We recommend exporting your data periodically as a backup. We don't keep backups of individual accounts: our database provider keeps only a rolling six-hour history of the whole database for disaster recovery, and we have no way to restore a single account from it. Your own copy is the one you can count on.

Understanding the Export File

The file has three parts: when it was made, the account it belongs to, and your library. Every plugin you own is an entry in library.plugins:

{
  "exportedAt": "2026-08-29T18:04:11.000Z",
  "user": {
    "email": "you@example.com",
    "displayName": "Dave",
    "accountCreated": "2026-01-02T03:04:05.000Z"
  },
  "library": {
    "totalPlugins": 312,
    "plugins": [
      {
        "pluginName": "Pro-Q 3",
        "brandName": "FabFilter",
        "category": "EQ",
        "type": "effect",
        "version": "3.24",
        "licenseType": "perpetual",
        "purchaseDate": "2024-07-20",
        "purchasePrice": "149.00",
        "authorizedMachines": ["Studio iMac"],
        "isFavorite": true,
        "isWishlist": false,
        "personalNotes": "My go-to surgical EQ",
        "personalRating": 5,
        "personalTags": ["mixing", "favorite"],
        "addedAt": "2024-07-20T18:04:11.000Z"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Fields you have not filled in come through as null — a plugin with no notes, no rating and no tags still gets an entry, with those fields empty.

Using Your Exported Data

Personal backup

Keep the export file somewhere safe as a backup of your plugin organization work.
