Confidence Signals

When presenting information from Glean, communicate the reliability, freshness, and authority of your sources clearly.

When This Applies

Use these patterns when:

• Presenting search results that may be outdated
• Information comes from sources with different authority levels
• Results are incomplete or may have gaps
• The user should verify before acting
• Multiple sources have conflicting information
• You're making inferences beyond what sources explicitly state

Part 1: Vetting & Filtering (Before Presenting)

Be skeptical. Not everything Glean returns should be presented. Better to return 3 high-quality results than 10 unvetted mentions.
