You can use my ‘ChatGPT Search Query Extractor’ bookmarklet to easily view search queries in any ChatGPT conversation that grounds its response using a web search (with Bing search engine). The extracted questions are opened in a new tab and are presented in a clean, organized format, and includes a copy to clipboard functionality.
It’s perfect for SEOs, researchers, content creators, and anyone who wants to reuse or analyse the search strategies ChatGPT employed.
