Sound familiar?

Where drafts fall down is the foundations.

Not the drafting — the checking and the reasoning underneath it.

01 · Sources

It quoted something that wasn't there

Confident summaries and invented citations. You found one — how many did you not find?

02 · Scale

Manual re-reading doesn't scale

Ten documents, one deadline, one you. The check that worked on one matter breaks on three.

03 · Clients

They can tell it's AI

Unlabelled inference and confident phrasing undermine the analysis — even when it is sound.

04 · Confidentiality

Client data can't leave the firm

Privileged material cannot be pasted into a public model. The check has to run inside your own account.

  • Two verified memos · an authority table · the six-question check

  • Handle researching with ai with confidence

Questions

The honest answers.

Do I need any technical background?

No. Everything is plain English and every term is explained. If you can use a word processor and a chatbot, you can do this.

Which AI tools does this work with?

ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Copilot, or any tool that follows instructions. The method is the same across all of them.

How long does the course take?

116 min, across 7 short modules. You can stop and resume at any point.

What do I actually get?

Narrated video, the slides, the companion skill, and a verified research memo — all included with the course and with membership.

Is it kept current?

Yes. Last updated 2026-10-14, and the companion skill is refreshed as models and rules change.
