Check If AI Citations Are Real
Made-up citations survive because nobody re-fetches them; a receipt for each lookup call shows what your agent actually opened.
Add Zambo to your AIWhy fake citations slip through
Ask the AI to list the exact URLs it opened, then open those pages yourself. A call receipt can show which lookup request was recorded; it does not prove that a source supports the sentence or that the source is authoritative.
For important decisions, check the source date, author and original document. Keep citations next to the statements they support.
The re-fetch habit
Check the record's format and commitment separately from the result itself. Use the verifier for the saved data, then inspect the underlying source and work.
How lookup receipts catch them
Each recorded call can be opened as its own receipt. The receipt lets a reader inspect the captured tool name, status, time and output commitment that are available on that record. Failed and rejected calls should remain visible as their actual status.
Use the receipt checker to compare the saved receipt data. That comparison checks the record, not the truth of a claim inside it.
Set it up once
Open the app picker, choose the client you use and follow the current connection steps there. The server URL is https://zambo.dev/mcp. Copying it does not connect the account by itself; confirm that your AI app shows the server as connected.
Ask the AI to use Zambo for one small task. If the app does not support remote MCP connections, use another supported client or try Zambo Chat.
