Capability
Evidence Grounding
Evidence Grounding checks AI claims against authoritative sources and the supplied context, distinguishing supported statements from unsupported ones. It anchors generation in verifiable evidence so answers can be trusted and traced.
Tie every claim to a verifiable source or flag it as unsupported.
Generative systems routinely assert facts with no traceable basis. Evidence Grounding addresses this directly by matching each claim in an output to the source material meant to support it, whether that is retrieved documents, a knowledge base or the context provided at request time. Supported claims are linked to their evidence; unsupported ones are flagged.
The capability separates what a model was given from what it invented. By verifying grounding rather than assuming it, the Proofence trust orchestration layer catches fabricated citations, misattributed figures and confident claims that quietly exceed the underlying source, turning a vague sense of reliability into a concrete, checkable property.
Grounding results are structured so downstream steps can act on them. Trust scoring can weight a well-sourced answer above an unsupported one, policy orchestration can block ungrounded claims in sensitive contexts, and human reviewers receive the exact passages behind each statement instead of having to hunt for them.
For regulated and high-stakes work, this traceability is essential. Evidence Grounding makes it possible to show not only what an AI concluded but why, tying each decision back to sources a person can independently inspect and stand behind.
What it delivers
Claim-to-source linking
Each supported statement is connected to the specific evidence behind it, ready for inspection or citation.
Unsupported detection
Claims that exceed or contradict the provided sources are flagged rather than passed through unchallenged.
Structured results
Grounding output feeds scoring, policy and human review so evidence shapes the final decision.
Traceable answers
Every grounded decision can be traced to sources a reviewer can independently open and verify.
Bring verifiable trust to every AI decision.
