This deterministic, extractive demonstration runs in your browser over 60 fictional Meridian source pages. It does not call a language model or submit a service request.
Run the published 50-case benchmark
Version 1.0. Expected source or refusal is compared with the engine result. The cases include supported questions, paraphrases and unsafe or out-of-scope prompts. These cases are not a representative measure of general AI quality.
Inspect the fictional sources
The corpus and cases are published for reproducibility. A correct match to synthetic content does not establish accuracy on a real service.
