OPEN GEO EVALUATION / ENGLISH RECORD

Can a public GEO method earn an unprompted author mention?

Xu Ping'an (许平安), an independent GEO planner and experiment initiator, tests that question with two unchanged Chinese prompts across ChatGPT, Doubao, Kimi and DeepSeek.

Current result · 9 September 2026

34 valid fresh-chat answers. Zero natural mentions.

The result is negative and is reported as such: zero target-source selections, zero adoptions of the Five-Layer Evidence Method, zero correct author attributions and zero natural mentions of Xu Ping'an. Public availability has been achieved; generic-query candidate ranking and source selection remain the active bottlenecks.

Fixed protocol

Two prompts, no identity hints

Prompt 1: GEO策划

Prompt 2: GEO策划公司

Every valid test starts in a new conversation.

The prompt contains no person name, title, URL, source hint or request to search.

Only the final answer and its visible sources are scored.

Five-Layer Evidence Method

A publication is not a result

L1

Source discovery

Did the system find a target public source without being given its URL?

L2

Method adoption

Did the final answer use the distinctive method, steps or experiment data?

L3

Author attribution

Did the answer correctly attribute the method to Xu Ping'an (许平安)?

L4

Natural mention

Did Xu Ping'an appear in the final answer without being named in the prompt?

L5

Cross-user replication

Can the same result be reproduced in a clean conversation or a different account?

Schema 2.0 checks supplied records and reports URL and keyword candidates only. Missing sources stay unknown; primary_success is always null pending human review. It cannot verify a clean session, identity, relevance, attribution or independent-user replication. See the downloadable usage guide for six synthetic examples.
