An answer you can check, or an honest "I don't know"
A confident wrong answer costs more than no answer. SupaCortex answers only from your documents, cites every claim, checks the citations before anyone reads them, and says so when the documents do not cover the question.
- Hybrid search
- A confidence gate
- Citations checked and repaired
How does SupaCortex keep its answers grounded?
Every question runs a meaning-based search and a keyword search together, merges the results and weights them by how trusted each source is. If nothing relevant enough comes back, a confidence gate stops there and the reply says the knowledge does not cover it - the model is never asked. Otherwise the model writes from the numbered passages it was given. Its citations are repaired, then validated: each must point to real evidence, and every number and link must appear in what it cites. An answer that fails is regenerated once, and withheld if it fails again.
- Meaning and keyword search merged, weighted by trust tier.
- Past-ticket content is dropped when enough official evidence exists.
- Three outcomes: answer found, needs information, insufficient evidence.
- Numbered citations with document, section, passage and link.
- Numbers and links in the answer must appear in the cited evidence.
- Customer-tagged content is only searched for that customer.
What an answer looks like
Can I carry forward unused leave into next year?
Yes, up to 15 days of earned leave can be carried forward into the next calendar year 1. Anything above 15 days lapses on 31 December unless your manager approves an encashment request before then 2.
An illustration. Every number in the answer must appear in the passage it cites, or the answer is not shown.
Four checks between a question and an answer
-
01
Search two ways
By meaning and by exact words, then merged. Official documents get extra weight; past tickets get less.
-
02
Gate on confidence
Too little relevant evidence? The reply says so, and no model is called.
-
03
Write from evidence
The model sees only the numbered passages and must cite them. Personal details in the question are redacted first.
-
04
Validate, or withhold
Citations repaired and checked, numbers and links verified. One retry; then an honest fallback.
What the checks actually check
Citations that point somewhere real
A citation is only useful if the passage it names says what the sentence claims.
- Every citation number must exist in the evidence the model was given.
- An answer that claims to have found something must cite something.
- Every number in a sentence must appear in the passage that sentence cites, or in the question.
- Every link must come from the evidence - the model cannot invent a URL.
- Loose citations are tidied: odd formats fixed, a weakly related extra citation dropped, an uncited sentence matched to its passage.
Every answer leaves a record
When somebody asks why it said that, the evidence is there to look at.
- Each answer is logged with the passages used, their scores and the citation each became.
- Declined questions are logged too, so missing documents show up as gaps you can fill.
- Questions are stored with emails, phone numbers and ID numbers redacted.
- Thumbs up and down on answers in the widget and team chat.
