Citations are the product, a year in
The line from our grounded-AI pledge at month one to how the product is now judged by reviewers. Citations were a feature. Now they're what customers are buying.
Shipped: grounded-summary export with inline sources
The export path customers have asked for since month one. Executive summary exports now carry the inline citations as hyperlinks in the DOCX and PDF outputs, with an appendix that lists every evidence source in order.
Draft attribution in exports: PDF, DOCX, HTML
Inline citations have to survive the export. How the rendering preserves citation anchors across the three export formats, where each format makes it hard, and the specific decisions we made to keep the attribution auditable.
Citation UI: three designs we tried, two we kept
How we render inline citations next to grounded-AI output. Three UX experiments — footnote chips, side-pane evidence cards, and inline hover popovers — and what we learned about which ones reviewers actually use.
The citation density target per section
Why executive summaries get two citations per paragraph and technical sections get five. The rationale for citation density as a section-level target, and what happens to drafts that fall below it.
Streaming drafts over SSE, with citations inline
How we stream draft output to the browser while keeping citation integrity intact. The architecture, the failure modes, and the part we got wrong twice.
Shipped: the inline verify button in drafts
Hover any drafted sentence in the proposal builder and a verify button surfaces the source block, the entailment trace, and the timestamp of the last KB update. Shipped this week.
How the citation rendering stack works
From a retrieval hit to a verify button next to a sentence, in four components. The plumbing behind every cited claim PursuitAgent ships, and why we render the source inline instead of in a footnote.
Grounded Retrieval 101, Part 3: the citation rendering stack
From a verified retrieval hit to an inline citation a reviewer can hover and trust. Four components: citation marker, hover card, source viewer, and audit log.
