Citations are what make veridive trustworthy — and they're the feature people fall in love with. Every factual claim in an answer carries a citation, and for video and audio that citation points to the exact second the source says it.
How to read a citation
A citation chip like 2 · 22:17 means: source #2, at 22 minutes 17 seconds. Click it to open the source video at that timestamp so you can watch the moment in context and confirm the claim in your own words.
- Video & audio show a timestamp — the exact second.
- Articles, web pages and documents show a numbered reference without a timestamp.
- The same source can be cited several times across one answer when it supports more than one point.
Why you can trust them
veridive builds answers from the actual transcript of each source and copies the timestamp directly from the passage it used — it is never guessed or estimated. The answer paraphrases what was said in your own-reading language rather than dumping a raw quote, but the citation always traces back to the original words.
What citations don't do
A citation shows you where a claim comes from — it doesn't certify the speaker is correct. veridive's job is to faithfully find and attribute what was said; judging whether a source is right is still yours to make. That's exactly why one-click verification matters.
