Anthropic unveiled a new capability for developers’ API called Citations, allowing for traceability of sources to enhance credibility and reduce inaccuracies.
By using Citations, users can upload reference documents, and the Claude model will segment phrases to provide backlinks when addressing specific issues. Anthropic’s internal testing showed a 15% increase in answer accuracy with citations.
Examples of using Citations to enhance credibility include summarizing lengthy documents with backlinks for easier reference, summarizing financial reports to pinpoint specific sources, and supporting customer systems with backlinks to instructional documents.
Citations is now available on Claude 3.5 Sonnet and Claude 3.5 Haiku through Anthropic API and Vertex AI, with pricing based on usage terms.
TLDR: Anthropic introduces Citations API for developers to trace sources, enhance credibility, and improve answer accuracy by 15%.
