Reading Source References

When the AI answers a question, it cites its sources. These citations are called Source References.

​
Trusting the AI’s Responses

Oystack is designed to reduce ‘hallucinations’ (when AI makes things up). Every factual statement based on your uploaded documents includes a citation number, e.g., [1].
  1. Click the Citation: Clicking [1] will instantly open the PDF Viewer Panel on the right side of your screen.
  2. Reviewing the Evidence: The Viewer Panel will load the exact page the AI derived its answer from and highlight the relevant text.
  3. Verify: You can read the surrounding paragraphs to verify the AI’s interpretation.
Using Source References allows you to trust the AI’s output without leaving your conversation window to manually search a 100-page document.
