AI answers with sources — or an honest “not found.”

01 · The problem

Where the wrong answer comes from.

The failure isn't that nobody knew — it's that the person who replied answered from memory while the real answer sat in a doc nobody had open. Pick how it happens and watch it play out. Search doesn't fix this: it hands back a list of links and leaves the reading, and the guessing, to whoever asked.

02 · What you need

The answer and its source, together.

She answers the question in the thread where it was asked, grounded in the docs you connect, and attaches the source and the exact location — so you can open it and read the line yourself. She cites only what she actually read.

§7not “it's in the handbook” — the line, quoted says sowhen a doc can't answer it, rather than filling the silence

03 · How it runs

Grounded in what you connected, and nothing else.

Set where the asking happens and which sources she may read. Every step rewrites itself to match — and where she cannot ground an answer, she says so rather than reaching for something she did not read.

04 · What it's worth

Is this a Glean alternative? Partly.

Straight answer, because you searched for one. Glean is an enterprise search index — it crawls every system and ranks documents. Ayven doesn't do that and won't pretend to. What she does is narrower and sits closer to the work.
