Sources & Citations
Inline citations, source cards, and research source panels.
Components
5 components availableA cited source as a card — favicon, page title, domain, and the snippet the answer actually drew from.
Source ListThe passages retrieval actually returned, with similarity scores and a visible relevance floor — including the case where nothing cleared it.
Citation UIInline citation markers in generated text — numbered footnotes that reveal the source in a hover preview card.
Citation PopoverA citation marker that shows the passage it came from — fixed positioning that survives a scrolling answer, touch and keyboard, and an honest state for a number the model invented.
Inline CitationsSuperscript citation markers with a compact source footer.
