Ask a question, get an answer assembled from the files, with a link to every source.

You can use this right now. It runs in your browser, on this site’s own data.

The demo workspace already holds hundreds of sample documents. This searches them, quotes the passages that answer the question, and links each one. When nothing in the corpus covers the question, it says so instead of guessing.

Ask the brain, with citations

Every answer points back to the document it came from

This searches the sample company brain published on this site, a few hundred documents from the fictional Apex Instruments workspace. It is a keyword search with a citation trail, built here and running on this page. No model runs when you press Ask.

Questions this corpus answers well

    THE MECHANISM / SHOW THE SHAPE, NOT THE SOURCE

    How it works.

    Guardrails and gates
    1. 01Ask

      You type a question, or pick one of the presets.

    2. 02Retrieve

      Every passage is scored against your words. Headings and titles count for a little more.

    3. 03Assemble

      The answer is stitched from the best-matching sentences, verbatim. Nothing is written for you.

    4. 04Cite

      Each sentence carries a numbered marker pointing at the passage and the document it came from.

    5. 05Refuse

      Below a score threshold it reports that the corpus does not cover the question.

    WHAT IT READS

    • The demo workspace documents
    • A passage index built at publish time
    • The question you type

    THE RULES IT HOLDS ITSELF TO

    • Every answer sentence traces to a passage
    • Every citation link resolves to a real document
    • An off-corpus question produces a refusal, not a weak guess
    • Search completes in well under a second
    Retrieval over this site’s own sample corpus. No model runs on the page, and no client system is connected.

    This is a new capability, built for this portfolio. It is not part of a client engagement, and nothing here is connected to a company’s internal system. The sample company, Apex Instruments, does not exist.
