What is Query Fan Out?

Query Fan Out extracts the related queries that ChatGPT generates internally when answering your tracked prompts. These include web search queries, tool calls, and source lookups—the actual queries the AI used to research and formulate its response.

How are the related queries discovered?

We capture them directly from the ChatGPT API response. The API returns structured data including web_search_results, search_results, tools, and sources—each containing the related queries AI used. This is real data, not predictions.

Is Query Fan Out a one-time analysis?

Fan out queries are extracted every time your prompts are executed. As you track more prompts and executions accumulate, you build a comprehensive picture of how AI models explore topics in your space.

How is this different from Prompt Research?

Yes. You can review all extracted fan out queries and choose which ones to add to your prompt tracking. This helps you systematically expand coverage based on what AI models actually consider relevant.
