## Citations are the point [#citations-are-the-point]

Every answer carries the sources it was built from. This is deliberate: a RAG
answer you cannot trace is a liability, not a feature. The citations let a human
jump to the exact document a claim came from and confirm it, which is exactly
what regulated and high-stakes work needs.

Answers are generated by AI. Citations are what make them verifiable, not just
plausible.
