How Suggested Follow-Up Questions Are Generated

The tappable suggestions you see under a report and after each follow-up answer are not random — here is how they are chosen.

By Headlinne Editorial Team · Updated on

Drawn from genuine gaps in the research

Suggestions are generated by looking at what the current research covers well and what it only touches on — the gaps and open threads become candidate follow-up questions rather than generic prompts.

Refreshed after every answer

Once you ask a follow-up, the suggestions update again based on the newly expanded research and conversation — so the list evolves alongside your session instead of staying fixed to the original report.

A shortcut, not a requirement

Tapping a suggestion sends that exact question into the chat automatically — useful when you are not sure what to ask next, but never a replacement for typing your own question whenever you have one.

Kept short and specific

Suggestions are written as compact, concrete questions rather than open-ended prompts, so tapping one gives you a focused answer rather than another broad summary.

Generated from your report, not a template

Headlinne builds these from the specific gaps in the research you just ran, so two people asking about different subjects get genuinely different suggestions. The aim is to name the thing you would have wondered about next — which is usually a sharper question than the one you would have typed from scratch.

Key takeaways

  • Headlinne suggests the questions the report left open, which is usually a better next step than whatever you would have typed.
  • Suggested questions come from genuine gaps in the current research, not a generic template.
  • The list refreshes after every follow-up answer, evolving with your conversation.
  • Suggestions are shortcuts you can tap — you can always type your own question instead.

Frequently asked questions

Are the suggested questions the same for everyone?

No. Headlinne generates them from the specific gaps in the report you just ran, so they reflect what that particular research left unresolved.

Why do suggestions change after I ask a question?

Because they are generated from the current state of your research, which grows every time a follow-up adds new information — so the "what to explore next" list stays relevant to where your conversation actually is.
