The question we ask

FAQ

Straight answers.

Do you guarantee ChatGPT will name me?

No, and nobody honestly can. We control the listing, not the answer. We make sure the AI can find your event, and we show you exactly what it says, word for word, before and after.

Why is it one-off?

Because a listing is a one-off job. You pay once, $49 or $149, and there is nothing to cancel.

What is whatsnext.buzz?

North San Diego County’s local events guide, run by the same team. Each event gets its own page that AI assistants can read.

How fast does it work?

Live on What’s Next within 1 hour, after a person at What’s Next approves it. Published and search engines notified within minutes. Usually in Bing and Copilot within a day or two, and in ChatGPT and Google within days to two weeks. We keep checking and show you every answer. We re-check at 5 minutes, 1 hour, 24 hours, 72 hours and 7 days after it goes live.

What do I need to send?

Event name, date, start time, venue, a street address with its number, and your city. Or just a photo of your flyer: we read it and you check it.

Which AI tools do you check?

ChatGPT and Gemini, through their official APIs with live web search. The apps can word things differently from the API, and answers change from one ask to the next, which is why ChatGPT is asked three times.

What does $149 add?

Everything in the $49 plan, plus directory listings and AI search optimisation of your own website.

Can I get a refund?
