How ApplyArc checks different AI outputs

ApplyArc uses different checks for different output formats. No validator replaces your final factual review.

Tool-specific number checks

Selected tools compare generated figures with the evidence supplied to that tool. Depending on the output format, a failure can trigger a retry, cleanup, withheld output, or telemetry.

Deterministic rewrite guards

Bullet rewrite paths check repeatable wording patterns, weakened evidence, expanded scope, invented leadership, and unsupported metrics. They cannot prove authorship.

Shared resume context

Tools that need resume evidence can draw from the same stored profile. Missing or incomplete source material still needs your review before anything is sent.

Current documented workflows

Rows state what the reviewed first-party pages document. They do not infer that an unlisted feature is absent.
