Query Fan-Out AnalyzerEnter a prompt and this tool extracts and analyzes the search queries (query fan-out) that ChatGPT actually ran internally. See exactly which searches the AI executed to gather information, based on real execution data rather than generated guesses.
When you ask ChatGPT a question, it does not simply search for your exact query. Instead, it "fans out" your question into multiple related searches to gather comprehensive information. This tool extracts the internal search queries that ChatGPT actually used, so you see only the search terms the AI genuinely referenced.
Type the question or prompt you want to analyze. Complex queries with multiple aspects work best.
ChatGPT processes your prompt and runs multiple search queries while generating its answer. This tool extracts those queries from the actual execution log.
See every individual search query that was used to gather information for the answer.
Knowing what the AI actually searched, rather than how it reasoned, is the single most important insight for LLMO and AI search optimization. By basing your strategy on the queries ChatGPT actually executed, you can design content that gets cited and recommended by AI.
A single prompt triggers roughly 3 to 8 different searches. Your content needs to be discoverable across all of these variations.
Discover the exact phrases AI uses to find information, and feed these queries into your content strategy.
See which sources are cited for each fan-out query, and identify opportunities where competitors are mentioned but you are not.
Identify sub-topics within a main query that you are not yet covering. Each fan-out query represents a potential content opportunity.

Query fan-out is the process where an AI internally generates multiple search queries from a single prompt and gathers information in parallel. For example, for the question "What are the best project management tools?", the AI automatically generates and runs several queries such as "project management tools comparison" or "Notion vs Asana".
Yes. ChatGPT and Gemini use different internal search logic, so the same prompt can produce fan-out queries that differ in both content and count. Comparing results from both tools reveals how each AI gathers information.
Understanding fan-out queries lets you create content optimized for the queries AI actually references. By covering not only traditional SEO keywords but also the search queries AI generates internally, you can increase your visibility in AI search.
