Turn source documents into a checkable research brief

A founder or analyst needs a short brief based on documents they chose, with the source and uncertainty kept visible.

What this is

Document extraction summarizes supplied public sources. A receipt records the extraction call, not whether every statement in the source is true.

The workflow

  1. 01

    Extract each public document URL that is relevant to the question, one call per distinct source.

    Zambo tool: pdf_extract

    Extracted text, word count, and summary for each supplied source.

    Repeat only when: Once per distinct source URL; do not repeat identical sources.

  2. 02

    Check each material claim against the source material that addresses it.

    Zambo tool: zambo_check

    Evidence scope, freshness, conflicts, and a recommended next action.

    Repeat only when: Once per distinct material claim when the source set supports it.

  3. 03

    Save only a concise fact the owner explicitly approves.

    Zambo tool: memory_remember

    Use only when: Only if the owner asks to save a specific fact and approves its wording.

    A private memory confirmation and code.

  4. 04

    Close the research session after the source review.

    Zambo tool: workflow_close

    A page linking the recorded research calls.

Copy this prompt into your AI

First add Zambo to a supported MCP client. The prompt asks for missing inputs and pauses before consequential actions.

Create a source-based research brief. Ask for the exact question and the public URLs I want reviewed. For each distinct source, use pdf_extract once; use zambo_check for each material claim the sources can address. Do not repeat identical sources or add filler calls. Report actual usage; a broad review may naturally use more than 20 calls, but there is no fixed total or guarantee one pass will finish it. Distinguish source statements from verified facts, include missing evidence, and do not invent citations. Save memory only after I approve the exact wording. Do not submit or publish the brief.

Use only the listed Zambo tools and their current live schemas. Ask for any missing input instead of guessing. Stop and ask before any side effect, public sharing, spending, or outside action. Keep all calls for this workflow in one job session when possible. After each call, report the actual result and receipt. If a call fails, do not claim it succeeded; explain how to resume from the last confirmed step.

This is an illustrative recipe, not a measured run. It has not been executed in a connected AI client. Check each returned result; tool limits and schemas can change.

What you get

Each listed tool returns its own observed result. workflow_close can group Zambo receipts recorded in the same job session.

A receipt lets someone check the saved call record. It does not establish that an answer was correct, a participant personally did the work, or an outside action happened unless separate evidence supports that.

What it costs

  • Free access: 20 metered calls per UTC day, shared across tools, plus one free wrap-up handover each day.
  • Day Pass: $0.99 for 24 hours, one payment.
  • Zambo Pass: $29 for 30 days, one payment.
  • Lifetime: $250 one payment while Zambo operates. It includes current Level 2 features, not future features or third-party provider costs.
  • No subscription or automatic renewal. A pass does not pay for third-party AI plans or external services.

Some tools have their own free limits or exemptions; check the live tool contract. Use only the calls the job needs. A large set of distinct sources, tasks, or checks can naturally exceed the shared free allowance. These examples have not been measured, so no call total is promised. Never add filler calls to trigger an upgrade.

Questions buyers ask

What does this cost?

Free access: 20 metered calls per UTC day, shared across tools, plus one free wrap-up handover each day. Day Pass: $0.99 for 24 hours, one payment. Zambo Pass: $29 for 30 days, one payment. Lifetime: $250 one payment while Zambo operates. It includes current Level 2 features, not future features or third-party provider costs. No subscription or automatic renewal. A pass does not pay for third-party AI plans or external services. A long run may need more than one day; call use varies. See current pricing.

Does my client pay to check the workflow?

No. Opening and checking a public receipt is free at /verify/.

What does a receipt prove?

It lets someone check the saved call record. It does not prove the answer was correct or an outside event happened.

Which AI apps work with this?

Use an MCP client shown on /add/. This starter prompt is client-neutral and has not been run in a connected AI app.

Do I need to code?

No. Add Zambo to a supported MCP client and paste the starter prompt. This workflow may still need the inputs listed above.

What happens when free calls run out?

The shared free allowance is 20 metered calls per UTC day, plus one free wrap-up handover each day. You can stop and continue later, or choose a one-time pass; no pass guarantees a complex run will finish in its access window.

Is this a subscription?

No. Each listed pass is a one-time payment with a stated access period; there is no automatic renewal.

Can I get a refund?

See the refund policy.
