Cited answers from your archive

Ask a question about past projects. The answer cites the document and page, and the page opens with the passage highlighted. If the archive has no answer, it says Nothing on file.

What it does

You type a question in plain words. Corpus searches only the documents you are allowed to see and answers with document-and-page citations. A citation opens the source page with the passage highlighted.

Who uses it

Project engineers and project managers who need a fact from an old job: a spec limit, a test standard, a unit price. Principals use it to check a claim before it goes in a proposal.

Step by step in the demo

A Corpus answer citing 2020-EV288-STR-Spec page 7, with the cited page open and the passage highlighted
A Corpus answer citing 2020-EV288-STR-Spec page 7, with the cited page open and the passage highlighted. Fictional sample firm.

Open demo.salemwise.com/?path=archive in a browser on a laptop. The steps below are the ones we took on 2026-10-10, viewing as Priya Ramesh, PE (Principal).

  1. Open the demo archive. Under Viewing as at the top, click Priya, PE · Principal.
  2. Click a project in the left list, such as Evergreen Containment Basin, to see its files and page counts.
  3. Type a question in the box at the bottom, or click the example: What watertightness testing standard and leakage limit apply to the containment concrete structures?
  4. Read the answer. In our run it named ACI 350.1 and a leakage limit of 0.05 percent of the test volume in the final 24-hour test, both cited to 2020-EV288-STR-Spec, page 7.
  5. Click the citation under Sources. The page opens on the right with the passage highlighted, with the public source it came from.
  6. Ask about something the archive does not hold, such as an elevator count on Tumwater Canyon Walls. The answer is Nothing on file, with no sources.

Demo data is fictional: the firm, Cedar Run Civil + Water, its people, and every record marked Fictional sample are made up. The rest of the archive is real public engineering documents, filed under the fictional firm's project names, and the RFQs are real public RFQs.

What a person still checks

  • Open each citation and read the page. The answer can be wrong.
  • Corpus asks for a citation on each claim, but the software does not check that every sentence is supported.
  • Nothing on file means the documents you can see do not support an answer. It does not mean the fact is false.
