An AI search tool is not a source check

The source presents an AI search tool for work with public records. Its useful role is to point a reporter to documents they can retrieve and check. A polished answer from the tool is not a verified conclusion. Read the underlying record before publishing a claim.

What the source reports

The linked source describes a search tool for investigative work with public records. The practical test is whether its answer leads back to a document a reporter can retrieve. Ask it for document links or citations, then read the records yourself. Search can help find a lead. It cannot make the claim ready to print on its own. This brief does not claim the tool has verified any person, event, or allegation in the files.
