chatgpt-answer

What ChatGPT answers a logged-out visitor for one question, as one row: the answer as Markdown and as plain text, the sources it cited and the pages its web search read. For brand monitoring and AI-search visibility: does ChatGPT name you, and which pages does it cite. prompt is the question; web_search lets ChatGPT search the web first (default on); country asks from that country. About 30 s to 2 minutes.
