Problem
=======
The advent of machine learning systems utilised through LLMs has made information more accessible than ever. The research and information synthesis is essential outsourced to these models, that, trained on the whole internet, can access a broader scope and synthesize it quicker to find the thing that a user needs to know. This is a powerful tool for information seekers, but often leaves providers without access to be able to changes and update the information outputted by LLMs. They're at the mercy of a machine that has free reign to determine how it should output information. This particularly important for business building and needing to protect their brand message. This machine has no understanding as to who the founders are, how they would want a system to represent them to users seeking to query information about the brand.
