AI Trace uses AI to help moderators review public submissions about company AI practices, automatically suggesting which company a report refers to, whether the practice is already in the database, and what category it belongs to.

The system makes three sequential API calls to Anthropic's Claude Haiku model: one for entity matching (identifying the company), one for duplicate detection (checking existing entries), and one for category classification. User-submitted text is passed separately from system instructions to reduce prompt injection risk. All AI suggestions are presented to human moderators as editable fields; no suggestion is accepted without human approval.
