Hey @maverick did you add this in requests? ---
**Author:** ![maverick](https://yyz2.discourse-cdn.com/flex004/user_avatar/community.pickaxe.co/maverick/32/143_2.png) [@maverick](https://community.pickaxe.co/u/maverick)\ **Post date:** [August 4, 2025, 12:46am UTC](https://community.pickaxe.co/t/chat-autonaming/5200/22 "2025-08-04T00:46:03Z")
There’s already two requests on this, and I thought better to not include another. > [@Chat history: Search, name, organize](https://community.pickaxe.co/t/chat-history-search-name-organize/3703): > > It would be great and extremely helpful if you could - like in ChatGPT - in your chat history: rename the “titles” search the history sort past chats into folders I look forward to feedback from other users on this. Thank you! > [@Give users ability to name their chats](https://community.pickaxe.co/t/give-users-ability-to-name-their-chats/700): > > Something I would like to see is the capability for users to be able to rename their chats so it wouldn’t just start with the first word or sentence they used, but instead they could rename it to something that they can remember later on. Plus, the auto summary feature was the one that kinda broke the earlier workaround (I asked the user to start the chat with a Name and Date so it gets captured as the chat name), so I figured I shouldn’t call it a feature request. ---

Hi @maverick, apologies for the delay - this is a very good idea for a feature! I will pass that along to our engineers for potential implementation in the near term 🙂 ---

Hi @lindsay_support , this issue was acknowledged since April (4 months ago). > [@Studio: History suddenly starting with "the user" and can we rename?](https://community.pickaxe.co/t/studio-history-suddenly-starting-with-the-user-and-can-we-rename/5271/3): > > I’ll fix this. I believe the issue is once we released the AI summary system for conversations in the backend, we started piping the first 40 characters of that summary into the end-users nav bar as conversation titles. Please help because we are really running out of excuses to tell our clients. If the fix cannot be rollout, perhaps just revert to the previous version where the first input is used as the name of the chat? Currently, with the auto summaries, the users had to click on multiple chats to find the one they were looking for. Please help. ---

Hi @maverick, I completely understand the frustration. We have added a number of team members since then, and it looks as though this request was lost in the shuffle - our apologies. But last week after responding here, I spoke with our CEO about it and added this task to our engineer’s to-do list, so we really are working on getting it done in the near term! If you don’t see a fix in the next month, please shoot us a note at [info@pickaxeproject.com](mailto:info@pickaxeproject.com) or write back here. ---

Hi @maverick, thanks for your patience - this feature has officially been added! If you double click on the chat as it’s named in the side bar, you can change the name to whatever you want 🎉 ![Screen Shot 2025-08-12 at 12.16.03 PM](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex004/uploads/pickaxeproject/original/2X/a/a0c77c6580357d9ac277c777bffda1aeef2ca8d2.png) ---

Great news! Thank you! Also is it possible to give us access to edit chat naming prompt (I believe you have it under the hood?). Because my chat naming cannot be overriden by any promts in any window, I experimented a lot. ---

@conrad can you elaborate on what you mean here, and also the use case for this proposed feature? ---

Wow! Finally! Thank you so much! After months of chasing, now we can update our clients. Appreciate your help! For the function to delete chat(s), I used this temporary fix. ([🧠 Delete chat memory (temporary solution)](https://community.pickaxe.co/t/delete-chat-memory-temporary-solution/5529)) Will the renaming feature break the delete chat feature? ---

What a cool temporary fix - Bruno is the best! I’m not sure how this change will impact it; if @stephenasuncion has the time, he can weigh in, and if not I would recommend testing it out! On an exciting note, we are also working on allowing end users to delete chats as a built-in feature, so hopefully the temporary fix should not be necessary too much longer 🙂 [Previous page](https://community.pickaxe.co/t/chat-autonaming/5200.md?page=1)
