How we ran the research
10 unbranded questions a real parent would ask: which international schools to choose in Thailand, IB, British and American curricula, cost, reviews, and a small specialist provider vs a large institution. One of the 10 questions is Bangkok-specific; the other 9 ask about Thailand as a whole.
Each question ran once in the Glasa product through ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot and Google AI Mode, market set to Thailand, on 1 October 2026 (09:42–10:51 UTC).
45 of 50 answers were collected. School mentions were extracted from the answer texts by Glasa's research script and merged by name; counts are answers mentioning a school, not occurrences. Accreditors, curricula, directories and places were removed with exclusion lists.
Sources are the URLs each engine cited in its answer, grouped by domain.
One run on one day. AI answers change between runs, accounts and locations, so treat the counts as a snapshot, not a ranking of school quality. Being named by AI says nothing about a school's accreditation or results. Mentions were identified by Glasa's research script from the answer texts; small differences in spelling or abbreviation can shift a count by one or two.
