Tools: You're Writing 10 Faster With Ai. But Nobody's Checking If Page 47...

Last month, a startup founder told me he generated his entire investor deck, financial model documentation, and legal terms — 140 pages — in three weeks using AI. He was proud. He should have been terrified.

Page 23 of his business plan promised "capital-light operations with minimal infrastructure spend". Page 87 of his financial model budgeted $2.4M for infrastructure in Year 1. A due diligence analyst caught it. The deal collapsed.

He didn't have a writing problem. He had a structural consistency problem.

And he's not alone. This is now everyone's problem.

In 2024, a team of three could write maybe 50 pages of polished documentation per month. In 2026, that same team generates 500. AI made writing nearly free. But it made something else nearly invisible:

When you write slowly, you remember what you said on page 12 when you reach page 47. Your brain maintains a rough map of your own claims, definitions, and commitments. When AI writes for you — or with you — that map doesn't exist. You didn't write page 12. You prompted it. Three weeks and forty conversations ago.

Now multiply this by reality. You don't have one document. You have a pitch deck, a technical specification, a regulatory filing, a patent application, a compliance manual, an API reference, and a partnership agreement. Each generated in different sessions, with different prompts, sometimes with different AI models.

You don't know. Nobody knows. There is no tool that checks this.

RAG answers the question: "What does my corpus say about X?" It finds relevant fragments. That's powerful for retrieval. But retrieval is not verification.

RAG cannot answer: "Is my corpus internally consistent?" — because that's not a query. There's no prompt you can write that says "find every contradiction I don't know about". Contradictions are structural. They live in the relationships between documents, not inside any single one.
