AI Hallucination & Factual Accuracy Playbook
Evaluates AI-generated conversations for factual correctness and unsupported claims. Cross-references outputs against approved knowledge sources to detect hallucinations and accuracy issues.

Without this playbook
Most teams handle ai hallucination & factual accuracy through scattered call reviews, manager opinion, and isolated examples. Without a shared operational definition, the signals stay inconsistent and difficult to act on across volume.
With this playbook
A shared, repeatable lens for ai hallucination & factual accuracy - with structured outputs you can route into coaching, reporting, and workflow automation. Every conversation produces evidence, not just opinions.
Built for
AI product managers, ML engineers, and trust & safety teams
When teams use it
- Model evaluation and release gates
- Governance review and policy enforcement
- Safety and accuracy monitoring
The operational stack
3 kits behind this playbook
AI hallucination is not a single failure mode - it ranges from confidently wrong facts to subtly unsupported claims. This stack separates the problem into three layers: verification against approved knowledge sources to catch outright factual errors, unsupported claim detection to flag assertions that lack grounding even if they sound plausible, and a confidence score that measures how well-supported the overall output is. This lets teams distinguish between a hallucinated fact and a poorly grounded inference, which require different fixes.
Accuracy Verification Kit

Knowledge base
Supporting materials
The kits in this playbook work best when backed by reference materials that ground the evaluation. Upload these into your workspace knowledge base to improve accuracy and relevance.

Structured output
What you get back
Every conversation processed through this stack produces a structured JSON object. Each brick contributes a typed field - booleans, scores, categories, or string lists - that you can route, aggregate, and report on.
