SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Verifies quotes and claims in manuscripts against source documents to ensure accuracy and consistency across interviews and cited works.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Source-to-quote verification: Validate that each direct quote or paraphrased claim is grounded in its referenced source.
  • Phase-based workflow: From intake and extraction through source mapping, fast verification, and final reporting.
  • Quality assurance for manuscripts: Reduces citation errors before submission or publication.

Quick Start

Invoke the verifier with your manuscript and provide paths to transcripts and literature sources. The skill will extract verifiable items, map each item to its source document, perform fast exact/near searches, and escalate to deep reading when needed, finally producing a verification report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify quotes against source documents in an academic manuscript?

To verify quotes against source documents, you provide your manuscript alongside paths to interview transcripts and literature sources. The tool extracts verifiable items, maps them to sources, and performs exact or near searches to confirm accuracy before generating a final report.

Can I check if paraphrased claims and direct quotes match their cited literature?

Yes, you can check if paraphrased claims and direct quotes match their cited literature. The system validates that each item is grounded in its referenced source using fast exact matching, fuzzy matching, and optional deep reading for accuracy.

What is the best way to validate interview transcripts against a manuscript before publication?

The best way to validate interview transcripts against a manuscript is using a phase-based workflow. This process handles intake, extraction, source mapping, and fast verification, escalating to deep reading when needed to ensure citation accuracy before submission.

Does the quote verification process require fast search tools and fuzzy matching?

Yes, the quote verification process requires fast search tools for exact quotes and fuzzy matching. It also optionally uses a haiku agent for deep reading to confirm accuracy when standard matching is insufficient.

How does deep reading with a haiku agent confirm quote accuracy?

Deep reading with a haiku agent confirms quote accuracy by escalating verification when fast exact or near searches fail. It performs a thorough analysis of the source document to ensure the quote or claim is fully grounded in its context.

When do I need source-to-quote verification for a qualitative study?

You need source-to-quote verification for a qualitative study when preparing a manuscript with interview transcripts and literature citations. It reduces citation errors and ensures consistency by validating direct quotes and paraphrased claims against their sources.
