REGIA is a custom‑built research assistant for the UN and international affairs policy experts.
It leverages:
- — The latest generative AI models;
- — The UN’s vast collection of official documents; and
- — A tailored approach to provide grounded responses to user queries, eliminating hallucination.
Constraints facing policy experts:
- — Overwhelming volume of information on any given file
- — Limited time to familiarize on a new topic or country context
- — Fragmented access to authoritative UN documents across siloed platforms
Why current options fall short:
- — Generic AI chat tools: hallucinate frequently and are poorly grounded in UN sources
- — Keyword search engines: limited relevance unless exact phrasing is known in advance
- — UN document portals: authoritative but slow to navigate and sift through documents
How REGIA can help international policy professionals:
Briefing notes
Rapid, referenced notes for briefings, meetings, background notes, etc.
Report drafting
First‑pass sections for reports, grounded in relevant citations and linked to the original source documents.
Research deep‑dives
Thematic and cross‑pillar scans of mandates, strategic assessments, operational developments, and past decisions.
REGIA delivers grounded, tailored responses to your policy questions through:
- — Cutting‑edge AI: Uses the best‑performing Large Language Models (LLMs) across relevance, clarity, grounding, and use of citations — based on internal testing of 10+ LLMs.
- — A curated UN database: Includes the most relevant documents for a given file and allows country‑specific, cross‑context, and thematic searches.
- — Smart retrieval logic: Goes beyond keyword matching to retrieve the most contextually relevant documents to your queries.
REGIA is a modular and scalable tool built for UN experts by UN experts:
Curated UN corpus
Security Council resolutions, meeting records, SG reports, panel of experts reports, and more. Built for policy relevance and traceability.
Retrieval‑enhanced drafting
Retrieval‑enhanced AI generation synthesizes the most relevant information, yielding fast, factual drafts with inline citations and quotes.
Evaluation‑driven accuracy
Automated testing to establish baseline performance and improve response quality. Iterative evaluations guide parameter/prompt adjustment and help systematically avoid hallucination.
Mission‑ready architecture
Built for policy teams; supports research and analysis on thematic files, country contexts, and org‑specific priorities. Flexible application components allow adaptation for various users and use cases.
