MODEL MEMORY
Parametric visibility
What a model recalls about a brand without searching. This shows whether the brand is already part of the model’s internal picture of a category.
Ask about model memoryThe Ask API
Ask a question here, or call GET /ask from an AI agent or application. Send a free-form question as q; optionally add a local page path identifying where the question came from. The API returns JSON with an answer.
THE ENDPOINT
https://geosurge.org/askPass a URL-encoded q parameter with your question, and optionally page with a local path. A successful response returns JSON with an answer string.
curl --fail-with-body --silent --show-error --connect-timeout 5 --max-time 75 -G 'https://geosurge.org/ask' \
--data-urlencode 'q=What does geoSurge measure?' \
--data-urlencode 'page=/'-G sends GET; --data-urlencode safely adds both values. Connection setup is capped at 5 seconds and the full request at 75 seconds. --silent hides progress, --show-error reports failures, and --fail-with-body keeps HTTP error details visible.
Public reference geoSurge field note 001
What a model says about a brand depends on what it remembers and what it finds. Explore geoSurge here, then use the Ask API for specific questions.
About geoSurge
geoSurge helps brands and agencies measure, understand and improve how they are represented in AI systems such as ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini. It tracks the questions buyers ask, where a brand appears, which competitors appear beside it, and which sources a model cites.
Its product separates two signals: what a model can recall from training, and what it retrieves from the live web. Reading those signals together helps teams decide whether to improve their content, their representation in model memory, or both.
Ask a follow-up questionThe framework
AI systems can respond from what they already know or consult current webpages. geoSurge measures these routes separately because each points to a different kind of work.
