How does Grok determine which sources to cite for ATS software?
Grok determines citations by scanning indexed web content that matches the intent of a user's prompt. Trakkr helps you see these specific sources so you can evaluate if the AI is pulling from outdated or irrelevant pages about your applicant tracking system.
