ChatGPT Search Inspector

Inspect ChatGPT queries, query operators, source URLs, domains and tool activity in a local SEO research dashboard.

Explore the search research exposed in your saved ChatGPT conversations, without opening DevTools. ChatGPT Search Inspector is a read-only research dashboard for SEO practitioners, content researchers and anyone who wants to examine the queries and sources behind a web-assisted reply. Six focused tabs: • Overview: research totals, a local domain-presence check, repeated query terms and returned URL coverage. • Search terms: exact exposed query strings, filtering, copying and available turn grouping. • Parameters: site restrictions, quoted phrases, exclusions and other query-text operators. Derived observations are clearly separated from native provider arguments. • Sources: source URLs, titles, attribution, reported publication dates, snippets where supplied and search/view reference labels. • Domains: exact-hostname grouping and source drill-down. Counts are not search rankings or citation share. • Activity: recorded tool envelopes, model/effort labels and available timing metadata—not a complete backend trace. Copy results, download a complete JSON report, or export individual categories as CSV. Filters and rendered pagination do not silently remove rows from exports. How it works: 1. Sign in to ChatGPT normally and open a saved conversation that used web search. 2. Wait for its reply to finish, then click this extension's toolbar icon. 3. Explore the returned metadata. Refresh after another reply finishes. Privacy and access: The extension temporarily reads the selected ChatGPT conversation using your existing session. Authentication and workspace context are handled only inside the tab's isolated reader. A bounded conversation response is processed locally; only allowlisted query/source metadata and tool envelopes are retained in popup memory. No inspected data is uploaded to the developer, and there is no developer analytics or advertising. Results clear when the popup closes or the selected chat changes. User-created downloads and clipboard contents remain under your control. Review queries, URLs and snippets before sharing them. Permissions are limited to activeTab and scripting. There is no permanent access to all websites, background monitoring, automatic source-site browsing, or separate extension login/API key. Important limits: Only metadata ChatGPT exposes can be shown. Private interfaces can change, older turns may be outside the saved response, and availability varies by account/model. A search result is not necessarily a visited or cited page; a view reference does not prove a successful fetch or full page read. Native provider arguments, source HTTP status and final citation mapping are not invented when unavailable. The extension does not modify ChatGPT or guarantee SEO/ranking outcomes.
