Answers should lead back to evidence.
A useful citation takes you to the page, moment, line, or web source behind an answer. Here is how we build and test that path.
Citation pipeline checks
98.88% across five checks.
- Source conversion
- 100.0%
- Streaming marker resolution
- 100.0%
- Location metadata fidelity
- 100.0%
- Pre-filter citation grounding
- 94.4% (citation recall 100.0%, precision 83.3%)
- Post-filter citation cleanup
- 100.0% (zero false positives in deliberately injected test cases)
How we did it
- Preserve source locations when converting PDFs, recordings, notes, and web pages.
- Resolve citation markers as answers stream, including markers split across chunks.
- Embed each cited claim and source snippet in one batch, score their similarity, and measure recall and precision.
- Inject wrong citations, run cleanup, and count those that remain.
(100 + 100 + 100 + 94.4 + 100) ÷ 5 = 98.88%. The results come from YouWo test cases, including business source material. Zero false positives applies to the injected cases after filtering.
The grounding check draws on ALCE citation precision and recall. This is a YouWo citation benchmark, not an official ALCE score or a retrieval-accuracy result. The case set and per-example outputs have not been published.
