What this question tests

Tests product design for improving the reliability of an AI research agent used for business critical data enrichment.

How to approach it

  1. Define accuracy precisely for this use case: the enriched data field, like a company's employee count or a contact's job title, actually matches reality, not just looks plausible.
  2. Identify the current failure modes: Claygent may pull outdated data, misattribute information to the wrong entity, or hallucinate a plausible sounding but unverified answer.
  3. Prioritize source transparency: show exactly which source Claygent used for each enriched field, so users can spot check questionable results quickly.
  4. Add confidence scoring per field: flag low confidence enrichments distinctly, so users know which fields to verify before trusting them in a sales or marketing workflow.
  5. Build a feedback loop: let users flag incorrect enrichments, feeding that signal back into source prioritization and model evaluation over time.
  6. Confirm with the interviewer whether the priority is improving accuracy on a specific data type, like firmographic data, or reducing hallucination broadly across all research tasks.
