Zenode
Concepts

Grounded answers

Grounding means claims you see are tied to retrievable sources (spec tables, PDFs, structured part records), not an undifferentiated language model prior.

Zenode is built for hardware decisions: a wrong voltage rating or package assumption is expensive. Grounding is how we keep outputs tied to evidence you can inspect.

What counts as a source

  • Structured catalog fields — Parametric values, categories, MPN/MFG identities
  • Datasheets and technical PDFs — Retrieved passages and tables the agent or UI can cite
  • Pricing and availability feeds — Shown where integrated (subject to your plan and data freshness)

What you should expect

  • Answers that reference or quote specific documents are stronger than generic prose—follow the links or citations when present.
  • When the catalog does not contain a part or document, Zenode should say so rather than inventing specs.

If something looks off, re-run with a narrower question or an @-mentioned part so retrieval is constrained to the right context.
