From question to citable material

The answer is not the end point, it is the entrance. The workflow below is the same whether the question concerns a provision, a ruling or a duty under the AI Act.

Four steps

  • 1. Ask in plain language, or paste a reference: act number, case number or article.
  • 2. Read the rows. Each carries a reference, a layer and a short summary from the register.
  • 3. Open the node. There you find the full text, the source and the layer's read date.
  • 4. Keep the address. It is fixed and works in a document, an email or a case system.

When the answer is not enough

  • Narrow to a layer: name the legal area or the jurisdiction in the same sentence.
  • Switch from plain language to a reference, or the other way — the search bridge understands both.
  • If the row is not in the register the assistant says so, rather than guessing.

In a team

  • Share the node, not the screenshot: the address holds when the text is updated.
  • The read date in the node shows which state of the rules a colleague actually read.
  • Questions that recur in a team often already exist as an answer node with its own address.

FAQ

Can I ask in a language other than the page's?
Yes. The assistant searches the register in any of the four languages and answers in the language of the page.
Does it work offline?
Part of the index is downloaded to the device, so a simple lookup works even where coverage is poor.
How do I know I have everything?
Not from the answer alone. Open the layer and read the register — an answer is an entrance, not a guarantee of completeness.
