Bring your own AI.
Keep the sources.

MateriaTrace can provide structured, source-backed context for external AI workflows — without replacing professional judgment.

What this means

MateriaTrace is not an AI
There is no built-in chatbot, reasoning engine, or diagnosis feature. The product is structured data — not an AI assistant.
You connect your own AI
Later, you will be able to connect MateriaTrace knowledge to your own LLM or AI workflow through a standard MCP server or REST API.
The sources stay traceable
Every piece of knowledge your AI uses will link back to a verified source in the ledger. Traceability is the core value, regardless of how you access it.

Educational and professional reference only. MateriaTrace does not provide diagnosis, treatment, prescription, or personalized medical advice. Always consult a qualified practitioner for clinical decisions.
