Notes on the build

Most AI workflow UI hides the model. Underwriter does the opposite — it surfaces every extraction as a citation, every confidence score as a visible attribute, every model call as a step on the timeline.

I styled the prototype in a fintech idiom because that audience is allergic to surprise. The visual restraint forces the AI behaviour to be the interesting thing, not the chrome.

Under the hood it's a small Claude-driven pipeline with hand-tuned prompts, eval grids for each extraction type, and a deterministic post-processor. The reviewer sees a calm three-column layout. The pipeline behind it is paranoid.
