How do Trust Cards work?
Last updated on January 12, 2026
Trust Cards help you quickly assess how a LeapSpace response is supported by the underlying research. They are designed to make it easier to review evidence, understand context, and decide whether a source is appropriate for your use.
When you select a reference in a LeapSpace response, a Trust Card opens with:
- Full bibliographic details (title, authors, journal, year)
- A “link to statement” explanation describing how the cited source supports the specific claim in the response
- A direct link to the source on the publisher’s platform, where available
This allows you to move easily from an AI‑generated statement to the original research.
Trust Cards are included for all supported input types, including abstracts and full text. They:
- Show where information comes from
- Clarify how closely a statement aligns with the cited source
- Help distinguish between well‑supported findings and broader interpretations
This makes it easier to evaluate reliability without having to manually compare multiple documents.
Trust Cards are particularly useful when you want to:
- Verify claims before sharing or building on them
- Identify which papers are worth reading in full
- Compare how different sources support a topic
- Investigate areas where evidence is limited, mixed, or evolving
They reduce the time typically spent tracing statements back to their sources.
Trust Cards do not replace critical reading or source evaluation. They are designed to support, not substitute, your own assessment of the research.
LeapSpace responses are not intended to be cited. Always consult and cite the original source documents accessed through the Trust Cards.
Trust Cards are part of LeapSpace’s broader approach to responsible and transparent AI use. Additional evaluation features may be introduced over time to further support evidence assessment and research integrity.
