Displays the web-search queries and cited sources AI chat assistants generate during your own conversations, in a local side panel. See the web-search queries and cited sources ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity generate during your own conversations, in a local side panel. ## Detailed Description LLM Search Inspector is a side panel for anyone who works on GEO, AEO, or SEO, or who simply wants visibility into how today's AI chat assistants search the web on their behalf. When you ask ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Perplexity a question that triggers a web search, those assistants generate their own search queries and pull in cited sources behind the scenes — information you normally never see. LLM Search Inspector surfaces what your browser already received during your own conversation, laying out the generated queries and the sources cited in response, right next to the chat you're having. For GEO/AEO practitioners and marketers tracking LLM visibility, this turns an opaque process into a readable log: which queries an assistant chose to run, and which pages it decided were worth citing. For anyone else, it's a window into how these tools actually work under the hood. LLM Search Inspector is a read-only local viewer. It runs entirely inside your browser, keeps a local history of what it displays, and never sends anything anywhere. Key Features: • Live side panel showing generated search queries as they appear in your conversation • Displays cited sources alongside each query • Works across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini (Gemini support is currently in beta) • Local history you can browse, with a one-click option to clear it • Setting to skip storing your own prompt text, keeping only queries and sources • Debug mode for troubleshooting when a provider changes its response format • Zero network requests made by the extension itself — nothing is transmitted anywhere How It Works: 1. Install the extension and open the side panel from the toolbar icon 2. Go to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Perplexity and ask a question that would trigger a web search 3. As the assistant responds, the side panel fills in with the search queries it generated and the sources it cited 4. Review, revisit, or clear your local history at any time from the panel Perfect For: • GEO and AEO practitioners tracking how brands and pages get surfaced in AI answers • SEO professionals extending their visibility work into AI-driven search • Marketers and businesses monitoring their presence in LLM-generated citations • Anyone curious about what's happening behind an AI assistant's "searching the web" step Privacy & Security: • The extension makes zero network requests of its own — no servers, no analytics, no remote code • Captured queries, sources, and (optionally) prompt text are stored only locally via chrome.storage.local • You can clear all stored data anytime from the side panel • A setting lets you skip storing your own prompt text entirely • Uninstalling the extension removes all locally stored data • Extension settings sync between your own signed-in browsers using Chrome's own chrome.storage.sync mechanism — the same one Chrome provides to any extension
