TEHUTI · FINANCE
KNOWLEDGE LAYER · DRAFT
From documents to dependable intelligence

AI cannot use a bookshelf.

Books, reports, laws, policies, and records are source material. TEHUTI converts them into small, traceable knowledge objects an AI can retrieve, compare, cite, and reason over—without losing the original meaning.

01 · ACQUIRE

Register the source

Identity, edition, owner, date, rights, location, and cryptographic fingerprint.

02 · PARSE

Extract structure

Sections, pages, tables, definitions, citations, dates, and named entities.

03 · ATOMIZE

Separate claims

One idea per object. Quotes remain distinct from summaries and inference.

04 · CONNECT

Build relationships

Concepts, dependencies, conflicts, jurisdictions, time ranges, and evidence links.

05 · VERIFY

Make it retrievable

Human review, confidence, embeddings, access policy, versioning, and evaluation.

The knowledge contract

Every answer must lead back to evidence.

A source is not “trained into” the system and forgotten. Each useful statement keeps its origin, meaning, limits, and review state.

Human source layer

  • Original file stays unchanged
  • Page, paragraph, table, or timestamp stays addressable
  • Edition and publication date stay attached
  • Rights and access rules travel with the content

AI knowledge layer

  • Concepts use consistent names
  • Claims are atomic and testable
  • Facts, opinions, rules, and inference are typed
  • Conflicts and uncertainty remain visible
Machine-readable example

One passage becomes one governed object.

Non-negotiable controls

Useful knowledge is governed knowledge.

PROVENANCEThe source, location, version, and content hash must be preserved.
SEPARATIONDirect quotation, faithful summary, and model inference must never be blended.
TIMEFinancial rules and market facts must carry an effective date and freshness policy.
CONFLICTDisagreement between sources becomes structured data, not hidden cleanup.
HUMAN REVIEWNo knowledge object authorizes a financial action. Consequential use requires explicit approval.
Current boundary

The standard comes before ingestion.

This defines the language TEHUTI will use. Source registration, extraction, review, retrieval, and evaluation will be added as controlled API capabilities. No book or source is marked AI-ready until it passes this contract.
