Get a behind-the-scenes look at how ChatGPT collects up-to-date information to generate answers. Our new fan-out queries feature in the LLM Scraper endpoint of AI Optimization API reveals the real search queries AI models use to explore your topic.
What’s new
The new fan_out_queries array in the LLM Scraper endpoint responses contains search queries derived from the main keyword that ChatGPT uses to retrieve additional information from search results.
Example:
"fan_out_queries": [ "Albert Einstein biography", "Albert Einstein early life", "Albert Einstein scientific contributions" ]
How it works
When you make a request to the ChatGPT LLM Scraper endpoint, the response will now include a fan_out_queries field, complementing the existing arrays of search_results (all web search outputs the model retrieved when looking up information) and sources (which the model actually cited in its final answer).
Why it matters
Data from the fan_out_queries field helps you to:
 Identify new terms to target and optimize for in organic search.
 Optimize your visibility in ChatGPT responses.
 Discover related keywords the AI model actively explores.
