Someone asked you a few questions.

You decide what happens next. Opening the request agrees to nothing, your records stay where they are, and an answer leaves your side only after you have seen it and said so.

Three things you can do

Agree

To the whole request: the exact questions, and what each answer may reveal. Your own AI agent then looks for the answers.

Suggest a change

Ask for a question to be removed or reworded, such as a threshold instead of an exact figure. Only the change you chose to suggest is sent, with a short note if you add one.

Decline

You can decline without giving a reason, and declining says nothing about any question. Leaving the invitation unanswered says nothing either.

If you agree

  1. Your agent looks through your records in privateIt answers each question exactly as written. Polygraph doesn’t connect to your files, inbox or accounts.
  2. You see every answer firstYour agent shows you, in your own chat, the answer it proposes for each question. If it missed a source, point it there. It reports what the records show, even when that is less than you hoped.
  3. Nothing is sent until you say soOnce you approve, every answer goes together, exactly as you saw it, as values alone. If a question can’t be answered as written, you can suggest changing it or stop, and the request stays unanswered.

What the person who asked sees

They see

  • Whether you agreed or declined
  • Any change you chose to suggest, and your note if you sent one
  • The answers you approved, all together, with their date

They never see

  • Whether you opened the request
  • Your records or documents, unless you write their content into a change or a note yourself
  • Any answer before you approve it
  • A reason from Polygraph for a request that went unanswered

Open the request

Any AI agent connected to Polygraph can show you a request, record your decision and suggest changes.

When you open a request, your agent tells you whether your connection can send answers and, if it can’t, where you can continue.

  1. Add Polygraph to your AI agentThe setup page has the server address and the steps for ChatGPT and Claude.
  2. Sign in with the address the invitation was sent toSigning in agrees to nothing.
  3. Ask for itSay “Show my Polygraph request.” The request stays open for 14 days from the day it was first sent.
