Research

Research informed by the failures we find.

We audit our own generated corpora at scale, publish what breaks, and turn each finding into a rule that runs on every record we ship.

Right Direction, Wrong Dose

Read the report

An audit of prescribed protein in 1.38 million AI-generated diet plans. Models lower protein for kidney disease, as they should, but not nearly enough: 81.4% of plans for stage 3–5 non-dialysis CKD exceed a lenient 0.8 g/kg ceiling.

81.4%of stage 3–5 non-dialysis CKD plans above 0.8 g/kg (95% CI 80.3–82.4, n = 5,285)

Clinical Credulity

Read the report

Given biologically impossible patient records, such as Turner syndrome in a male or co-coded type 1 and type 2 diabetes, models wrote fluent clinical plans and flagged none of them unless explicitly told to check.

0 / 128impossible records flagged without an explicit instruction (95% CI 0–2.9%)

Written in the Chart, Served on the Plate

Read the report

Food allergy is the one nutrition endpoint where correctness is binary. In 5.26% of plans for patients with a documented allergy, the model served the allergen, usually after listing it under “Avoid” in the same plan.

5.26%of allergy plans served the allergen (35,729 / 679,173, 95% CI 5.21–5.31)

Technical note2026Verification at scale

Assessment Gate certification

Read the report

We ran a 45-rule deterministic contract over every record in our corpora: 9.59 million synthetic patients and 1.27 million generated plan records. Fewer than half of the plans came back with zero findings.

Working summaryPreference and comparison data

Model comparisons across nutrition tasks

Side-by-side comparison of candidate plans for the same synthetic patient, used to derive rubric-based preference labels and to study systematic differences between models.

All reports audit synthetic patients and model-generated plans. None has been peer reviewed yet, and each states its own limitations. Full manuscripts and analysis code are available to research partners on request.

Research areas

Five questions we keep returning to.

  1. 1

    Clinical constraint reliability

    How do language models handle several interacting medical and dietary requirements?

    When two or three constraints apply at once, models often satisfy the most salient one and quietly violate the others. We measure where that happens and represent constraints so violations are detectable.

  2. 2

    Numerical reasoning in nutrition

    Do models give directionally right but quantitatively wrong recommendations?

    A recommendation can point the right way and still be wrong by a clinically meaningful margin. We look at weight-indexed doses, range adherence, and the gap between plausible and correct numbers.

  3. 3

    Verification at scale

    What can deterministic rules catch that model judges miss, and what can't they?

    Volume is cheap. We build versioned rule contracts that run on every record in microseconds, publish what they flag, and are explicit about what passing does not mean.

  4. 4

    Preference and comparison data

    How can candidate comparisons expose model behaviour and give post-training signal?

    Comparing candidates on explicit criteria reveals systematic tendencies that single-response scoring hides, and produces data post-training workflows can use.

  5. 5

    Multilingual and cultural coverage

    How do language and local dietary practice change the usefulness of a plan?

    Advice that ignores food availability, naming, or cultural practice is not useful advice. We treat locale as a task parameter, and we measure when models silently fall back to English.

We work with research groups, expert reviewers, and applied teams who care about measuring what their models actually do.
