About Query Reveal
Query Reveal is a Chrome extension that shows you the actual search queries ChatGPT uses when it browses the web to answer your question. Those queries are normally hidden — Query Reveal pulls them out of ChatGPT’s conversation data and displays them in a side panel next to your chat.
✨ Features
- Live capture — queries appear as ChatGPT streams its answer
- Works on historical chats — open an old chat and see the queries it used
- Clear empty states — tells you when a chat had no web search at all
- One-click copy for every query
- Side panel UI — stays out of the way of your conversation
- No data leaves your browser — everything is parsed locally
- No tracking, no analytics, no remote servers
🎯 Who it’s for
- SEO strategists — see how AI rewrites user intent into search terms
- AEO practitioners — optimize for Answer Engine results
- GEO specialists — align content with Generative Engine search behavior
- Researchers — study how LLMs decompose questions into queries
🔍 How it works
When ChatGPT searches the web to answer your question, it generates one or more search_model_queries internally. Query Reveal watches network responses on chatgpt.com, extracts those queries, and shows them in the side panel. All processing happens in your browser.
