## A Guide for Families, Advocates, and Researchers

Georgia Prisoners' Speak publishes the data behind our investigations — and we've made it easy for anyone to search and analyze that data using free AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, or Google Gemini. You don't need any computer skills, coding knowledge, or statistical training. If you can copy and paste a link and type a question, you can do this.

## How It Works

GPS maintains a single page that tells AI tools everything they need to know about our data — where to find it, what it covers, and how to access the details. It's called the **AI Content Index**:

**https://gps.press/ai-index/**

Here's all you have to do:

**1.** Open any free AI chatbot — [ChatGPT](https://chatgpt.com), [Claude](https://claude.ai), [Google Gemini](https://gemini.google.com), or [Microsoft Copilot](https://copilot.microsoft.com) all work.

**2.** Paste this into the chat:

> Read https://gps.press/ai-index/ and then answer my question: [your question here]

**That's it.** The AI reads the index, finds the right data, and answers your question in plain English. You don't need to know which dataset to use or where anything is stored — the AI figures that out for you.

After your first question, you can keep asking follow-ups without pasting the link again. The AI remembers the conversation.

## What Can You Ask About?

GPS maintains a large and growing collection of data covering Georgia's prison system. Through the AI Index, an AI tool can access all of it, including:

- **Facility data** — population, capacity, overcrowding, and security levels for every GDC prison
- **Deaths in custody** — 1,777 individual records since 2020, including names, facilities, dates, and causes
- **Parole and sentencing** — 34 years of data across 304 offense categories showing how parole rates and time served have changed
- **Population statistics** — demographics, health status, security classifications, and trends
- **Drug admissions** — demographics of people admitted for marijuana, cocaine, and methamphetamine offenses
- **Commissary pricing** — 518 products with wholesale costs, retail prices, and markup percentages
- **The GPS Research Library** — 71 deep-study collections with 5,577 verified data points on topics from healthcare to sentencing to prison labor ([details below](#h-the-gps-research-library))
- **The GDC Policy Library** — 561 Standard Operating Procedures and 195 Board of Corrections Rules — over 1.3 million words of official policy
- **GPS investigations and reporting** — featured articles, news coverage, FAQ resources

## Example Questions to Try

Copy and paste any of these into an AI chatbot. They work as written — just replace the parts in brackets with your own details.

### For Families

- "Read https://gps.press/ai-index/ and tell me about conditions at [facility name]. Is it overcrowded? Have there been any deaths there recently?"
- "Read https://gps.press/ai-index/ and tell me how long people typically serve for [offense] in Georgia. What are the chances of getting parole?"
- "Read https://gps.press/ai-index/ and explain the parole process in Georgia. What should our family know?"
- "Read https://gps.press/ai-index/ and find the GDC policy on medical emergencies. What are they required to do when someone needs urgent care?"
- "Read https://gps.press/ai-index/ and tell me what GDC policy says about mail. Can they read my loved one's legal mail?"

### For Advocates and Journalists

- "Read https://gps.press/ai-index/ and summarize death trends across Georgia prisons. Which facilities have the most deaths?"
- "Read https://gps.press/ai-index/ and find the most overcrowded Georgia prisons. How does population compare to capacity?"
- "Read https://gps.press/ai-index/ and search the Research Library for data on the staffing crisis in Georgia prisons. What vacancy rates have been documented?"
- "Read https://gps.press/ai-index/ and compare what GDC's use-of-force policy says versus what GPS has documented about how force is actually used. Where do policy and reality diverge?"

### For Researchers and Attorneys

- "Read https://gps.press/ai-index/ and compare parole rates in 1993 versus 2025. How has average time served changed?"
- "Read https://gps.press/ai-index/ and calculate the average commissary markup across all product categories. Which items have the highest markups?"
- "Read https://gps.press/ai-index/ and find every GDC policy related to grievance procedures. What steps must a person follow, and what timelines apply?"
- "Read https://gps.press/ai-index/ and identify all legal cases cited in the Eighth Amendment research collection. What constitutional standards have courts established for prison conditions?"
- "Read https://gps.press/ai-index/ and compare what GDC policy requires for medical care with what the Research Library documents about actual healthcare outcomes."

## The GPS Research Library

The GPS Research Library is a structured, citable knowledge base built from official government reports, academic research, court filings, investigative journalism, and GPS's own investigations. Unlike raw data dumps, every piece of information in the library is individually verified, tagged, sourced, and categorized — making it useful for rigorous analysis, not just browsing.

The library currently contains **71 published collections** with **5,577 verified data points**, **1,508 named entities** (organizations, people, facilities, legislation, and legal cases), **1,571 cited sources**, and **342 structured datasets**. It grows regularly as GPS publishes new research.

### What a Collection Contains

Each research collection is a deep study of a single topic. Inside every collection you'll find:

- **Data points** — verified facts, statistics, findings, legal rulings, policy details, quotes, trends, and identified data gaps — each individually sourced and tagged
- **Named entities** — specific organizations, people, facilities, government programs, legislation, and legal cases referenced in the research
- **Cited sources** — official reports, academic papers, court documents, legislation, journalism, and GPS original research — each with type, reliability assessment, and publication date
- **Structured datasets** — tables of data extracted from the research (budgets, staffing numbers, mortality rates, survey results) in a format AI tools can analyze directly

### Research Collections by Topic

### How to Access the Research Library

There are three ways to use the Research Library:

- **Through the AI Index** — just paste `https://gps.press/ai-index/` into any AI chatbot and ask about a research topic. The AI will find and read the relevant collections automatically.
- **Browse it yourself** — visit [gps.press/research-library/](https://gps.press/research-library/) to read collections, explore data points, see sources, and find related GPS articles.
- **Machine-readable access** — for researchers and developers who want to feed the raw data directly into AI tools, the full library is available at [gps.press/research-data/](https://gps.press/research-data/).

## Even Easier: GPS Lighthouse AI

If you'd rather not copy and paste any links at all, GPS offers its own AI assistant that's already connected to everything:

**[GPS Lighthouse AI](https://gps.press/ask-ai/)**

Just go to the page and ask your question. Lighthouse is pre-loaded with all GPS data, investigations, the Research Library, and the entire GDC Policy Library. No links, no setup — just ask.

## Tips for Getting the Best Results

**Be specific.** Instead of "tell me about Georgia prisons," try "how many people died at Macon State Prison last year?" Specific questions get better answers.

**Ask follow-up questions.** After your first question, keep going — "now break that down by facility" or "compare that to last year." The AI remembers the conversation.

**Ask for citations.** You can ask the AI to show where in the data it found its answer. This is especially useful for research and advocacy.

**Try a different AI tool if needed.** Different chatbots may give slightly different answers. If one doesn't give you what you need, try another.

**Verify important claims.** AI tools are powerful but not perfect. For data you plan to cite in legal filings, journalism, or policy work, verify against the original GPS data or contact GPS directly.

## The Full Data Library

For those who want to explore GPS data directly or bookmark specific datasets, here is every machine-readable page GPS maintains. You can paste any of these URLs into an AI chatbot to go straight to a specific dataset — but for most people, starting with the [AI Content Index](https://gps.press/ai-index/) is the easiest approach.

## About Georgia Prisoners' Speak (GPS)

Georgia Prisoners' Speak (GPS) is a nonprofit investigative newsroom built in partnership with incarcerated reporters, families, advocates, and data analysts. Operating independently from the Georgia Department of Corrections, GPS documents the truth the state refuses to acknowledge: extreme violence, fatal medical neglect, gang-controlled dorms, collapsed staffing, fraudulent reporting practices, and unconstitutional conditions across Georgia's prisons.

Through confidential reporting channels, secure communication, evidence verification, public-records requests, legislative research, and professional investigative standards, GPS provides the transparency the system lacks. Our mission is to expose abuses, protect incarcerated people, support families, and push Georgia toward meaningful reform based on human rights, evidence, and public accountability.

Every article is part of a larger fight — to end the silence, reveal the truth, and demand justice.
