+## Parser type inference
+
+To access the underlying type returned by a parser, you can use the
+`inferParserType` type helper:
+
+```ts
+import { parseAsInteger, type inferParserType } from 'nuqs' // or 'nuqs/server'
+
+const intNullable = parseAsInteger
+const intNonNull = parseAsInteger.withDefault(0)
+
+inferParserType<typeof intNullable> // number | null
+inferParserType<typeof intNonNull> // number
+```
+
+For an object describing parsers (that you'd pass to `createSearchParamsCache`
+or to `useQueryStates`, `inferParserType` will
+return the type of the object with the parsers replaced by their inferred types:
+
+```ts
+import { parseAsBoolean, parseAsInteger, type inferParserType } from 'nuqs' // or 'nuqs/server'
+
+const parsers = {
+  a: parseAsInteger,
+  b: parseAsBoolean.withDefault(false)
+}
+
+inferParserType<typeof parsers>
+// { a: number | null, b: boolean }
+```
+
