Unova

a small scout that finds what people are searching for

Warming the filament

What this actually includes.

01

Custom Chatbots

Assistants that know your product and admit when they don’t.

  • Tone, scope and refusal behaviour defined as a spec, not a vibe
  • Tool calling into your real systems
  • Conversation logging with PII redaction
  • Fallback to a human with full context handoff
02

RAG Systems

Answers with citations, or no answer at all.

  • Chunking and embedding strategy tuned to your corpus
  • Hybrid vector + keyword retrieval with reranking
  • Every claim traceable to a source document
  • Freshness pipeline so the index never silently goes stale
03

Guardrails & Failover

An assistant that cannot invent your prices, and does not go down.

  • Isolated answer lanes — the lane that could invent a price cannot discuss prices
  • A retrieval score floor, below which it says "I don’t know" rather than guessing
  • Provider failover across separate accounts, so one outage is not an outage
  • Conversation memory the server signs, so a client cannot forge what was said

Live on this page

Meet Nova. She’s already running.

Nova is in the corner of every page on this site. Ask her anything — she will answer a general question like any assistant, and an Unova question strictly from what is written on these pages. Ask her what something costs and she quotes the published price ranges — she can’t invent a number, only read the ones on the pricing page.

That split is the engineering. Her backend crawls this site, ranks the passages that actually bear on your question, and hands only those to the model — and if nothing scores above the floor, a second lane answers generally and is forbidden from saying anything about Unova at all. The lane that could invent a price is the lane not allowed to discuss prices. Retrieval, a scoring floor, two isolated lanes, provider failover: that is what we ship when a client says their chatbot must not make things up.
