AI & data layer
The infrastructure behind everything Cliff does.
A retrieval and reasoning stack built for the depth and structure of manufacturing knowledge, from dense spec tables to superseded revisions.
The before
General-purpose AI wasn't built for your unique workflows.
Answers without sources.
Produces a confident response with no link back to a document. You can't verify it.
One general model for every task.
A model built for broad use, applied to precise engineering content it was never tuned for.
Answer fidelity on technical content: Inconsistent
Cliff's data layer
Multi-modal ingestion.
Citations enforced.
Cliff grounds every claim in a retrieved source. No source, no answer.
Always current.
New specs, revisions, and bulletins flow in continuously, so answers reflect the latest, not a stale snapshot.
Answer fidelity on technical content: Production-grade

Inside the stack
Every layer of Cliff is tuned for the content manufacturers actually produce, and the answers their teams need.
01
PDFs, scans, CAD metadata, spec tables, exploded views. All extracted with structure preserved, not flattened to text.
02
Vector indexes for semantic recall, structured indexes for tables and SKUs, lexical for exact-match part numbers.
03
Frontier models running grounded prompts with retrieved context, forced to cite the passages they used.
What this enables
The hard questions, answered with confidence.
Built right
An AI layer you can stake your business on.
The infrastructure behind expert answers.
Built to be trusted with your business. Let's show you how.
