We have developed and implemented prompting "guardrails," ensuring our GenAI-based products will only produce responses from content drawn from a clearly defined and limited set of verified information, such as our own content databases. This practice restricts the large language model's ability to produce potentially objectionable content broadly sourced from the internet.

Usage restrictions·
CoCounsel is not a replacement for outside counsel when the stakes are high
www.thomsonreuters.com · checked Aug 1, 2026
Data handling·
Your raw data is never used to train any model. The AI analyst reads schema, metadata, and quality state, generates SQL, and runs that SQL against your warehouse. Only the results needed to answer the question pass through, and all model calls go through enterprise LLM endpoints with no-training agreements.
