What a citation contains
Every claim in an answer is footnoted to a specific page and paragraph in the source document. The citation includes:
- Page number — exact PDF page
- Paragraph index — which paragraph on that page
- Section heading — for context
- Verified status — green checkmark if our grounding model verified the citation
Clicking a citation
Click any footnote ¹ in the chat to scroll the PDF viewer to the cited paragraph. The paragraph is highlighted with our iridescent border so you can see exactly what was referenced.
What 'verified' means
A green ✓ next to a citation means our grounding model independently confirmed that the cited paragraph actually contains the claim. Citations without ✓ are confident but not double-checked — usually because the claim is straightforward (e.g., a date or a name).
When we say 'I don't know'
If a question can't be grounded in the document, we tell you. This is called calibrated refusal — we'd rather pass than make something up. Our refusal rate is ~4%; 96% of refusals are correct (the document genuinely doesn't contain the answer).
