01 / Overview

A retrieval assistant concept for maintenance teams working across manuals, warranty documents, and prior repair tickets. Responses keep source passages and document references visible so technicians can verify guidance before acting.

02 / Challenge

Technicians often search large manuals and disconnected repair records while diagnosing equipment. A useful assistant needs to surface the right passage, identify which document it came from, and clearly distinguish a supported answer from a gap in the available sources.

  • /Relevant instructions are buried in long PDFs.
  • /Past repair knowledge is difficult to find at the point of service.
  • /Uncited AI answers are hard to trust during maintenance work.

03 / Proposed capabilities

  • 01Index manuals, warranty documents, and repair tickets by equipment
  • 02Answer questions with passage-level citations and source links
  • 03Show document version and page context beside each answer
  • 04Flag questions that the indexed sources cannot answer
  • 05Save verified findings to an equipment service history
