Each one opens, so you can read it yourself. We check our sources periodically.
The short answer comes first, because you are reading this one-handed.
The next steps are things you can actually do today, in the app you are already in.
The sources are at the bottom, and they are the whole point.

The private assistant
Ask the assistant. It answers from your own records.
It answers from your family's own records and published sources, and shows where each answer came from. It is not medical advice, and it is limited to 20 questions a day and 100 a month per child, shared by the adults linked to that child.
