Deep Analysis, and answers that show their evidence
Every answer now says where its conclusion comes from. For the hard questions, switch on Deep Analysis.
Evidence label
From the sources, interpreted from the sources, or AI reasoning: on every answer.
Deep Analysis
Our most capable model for claims, regulations, mechanisms and comparing studies. Takes 1–3 minutes. Re-run any latest answer with it in one click, and buy credits when your allowance runs out.
Shown its working
Assumptions, confidence and what to check before use, plus how the answer was built.
Short answer
A “reduced salt” claim needs at least 25% less sodium than comparable products, so the 30% cut qualifies in the EU.
The label rates where a conclusion comes from, not how certain it is.
Knowledge Library
Save any answer as a knowledge card. What you learn stays findable.
- Categories with card counts, tags and full-text search
- Synthesis across saved cards: consensus, contradictions, gaps
