Citations

When AI generates content in LOQI, it includes citations — numbered references that link back to specific passages in your source documents. Citations make AI output verifiable and trustworthy.

How citations work

  1. The AI generates content with numbered markers like [1], [2], [3]
  2. Each number corresponds to a specific passage in a source document
  3. Hover over a citation to see a preview of the source text
  4. Click to open the document at the referenced page

Citation tooltips

When you hover over a citation number, a tooltip shows:

  • Quote — The exact passage being cited
  • Document name — Which document it's from
  • Page / Section — Where in the document to find it
  • Document type badge — Policy, Evidence, Regulation, or Reference
  • Open link — Click to view the full document at the cited location

Verifying citations

To verify an AI claim:

  1. Find the citation number next to the claim
  2. Hover to see the source quote
  3. Click to open the document and read the full context
  4. Confirm the citation supports the claim
Always verify key claims

For critical findings and recommendations, click through to the source document and read the surrounding context. The cited quote may be accurate but taken out of context.

Citation types

Citations are color-coded by document type:

Missing citations

If AI-generated text makes a claim without a citation, treat it with extra scrutiny. The AI should cite sources for factual claims — uncited claims may be based on general knowledge rather than your specific documents.
