An example of how every result reaches you. AI drafts and checks; a person decides.
vocabotics builds software and AI for UK businesses, and every result comes with the proof to check it.
We say what was done and where to check it. We say what isn’t proven.

Three more ways to work with us, alongside the products.
Proof, with where it goes wrong.
Each proof note says what was done, how to check it, and where it fails.
Reading purchase orders and checking every line
A sketch on made-up data: it reads purchase orders, pulls out each line and checks the price.
Where it goes wrong: Both ward requisition forms failed completely: a layout my build orders did not include, so all 7 of their lines were missed.
Read the proof noteSorting service-desk emails, with a person approving anything that matters
A sketch on made-up data: it sorts service-desk emails and holds safety issues and disputes for a person.
Where it goes wrong: The first held-out set missed the case that mattered most, a safety issue that should always go to a person.

A UK client
We are building a larger system for a UK client who has asked not to be named yet. Their updates label every claim as measured, proposed or unconfirmed, so they can check each one before they rely on it.
