# AI prompt research: Find what buyers ask AI.

> In short: Prompt research is the keyword research of AI search: it finds the full questions buyers ask AI assistants. Ossvy builds a prompt list from your category, competitors and market, ranks it by estimated demand and buying intent, and sends the best prompts straight to tracking.

- Prompt ideas from your category, competitors and customer language.
- Estimated demand and intent for each prompt.
- Query fan-out: the sub-searches engines run behind one question.

## How prompt research works

1. **Enter a topic**: Type your category, product or competitor and choose markets. [AI brand visibility](https://ossvy.com/product/ai-brand-visibility.md)
2. **Pick prompts**: Sort suggestions by demand and intent and keep the ones that fit. [Prompt tracking](https://ossvy.com/product/prompt-tracking.md)
3. **Write for the gaps**: Turn prompts you're missing from into content briefs. [Content studio](https://ossvy.com/product/content-studio.md)

## What prompt research doesn't do

AI platforms don't publish prompt volumes. Ossvy's demand figures are estimates built from search data and answer patterns, so use them to rank prompts against each other, not as exact counts.

## Prompt research FAQ

### What is prompt research?

Prompt research is finding the full questions people ask AI assistants about a topic, then ranking them by demand and intent. It replaces part of classic keyword research for AI search. The prompts you choose feed [prompt tracking](https://ossvy.com/product/prompt-tracking.md).

### Is there search volume for ChatGPT prompts?

AI platforms don't publish prompt volumes. Tools estimate demand from search data, related queries and answer patterns. Ossvy shows an estimated demand score so you can compare prompts with each other; see how it feeds [AI visibility tracking](https://ossvy.com/product/ai-brand-visibility.md).

### How do I find out what people ask ChatGPT about my brand?

Combine three sources: questions customers ask your team, search queries that mention your category, and prompt suggestions in Ossvy. Then test them to see which answers mention you. Start with the [free AI visibility check](https://ossvy.com/tools/ai-visibility-check.md).

### What is query fan-out?

Query fan-out is when an AI engine splits one question into several web searches before writing the answer, for example price, reviews and alternatives. Ranking for those sub-searches makes you more likely to be cited. Ossvy shows fan-out queries next to each prompt; act on them with [content studio](https://ossvy.com/product/content-studio.md).

### How are prompts different in Turkish and Arabic?

People ask differently in each language and market: they name local brands, cities and price ranges. Translating English prompts misses that. Ossvy suggests prompts in each language as locals phrase them; see [solutions by market](https://ossvy.com/solutions.md).

### How many prompt ideas does Ossvy suggest?

It depends on the topic. A typical category returns hundreds of ideas, which you filter by intent and demand before adding them to tracking. Limits per plan are on the [pricing page](https://ossvy.com/pricing.md).

### Which prompts should I track first?

Start with comparison and purchase-intent prompts in your main market, such as 'best X for Y' and 'X vs Y', because those answers name brands directly. Add informational prompts later. Compare your share of those answers in [competitor analysis](https://ossvy.com/product/competitor-analysis.md).

### Can I use prompt research for content planning?

Yes. Prompts you are missing from become content ideas, and the fan-out queries tell you which sub-topics a page should answer. [Content studio](https://ossvy.com/product/content-studio.md) turns them into briefs.
