Understanding AI-generated responses shouldn’t be a guessing game. With Storytell’s new Response Breakdown feature, you get a structured, transparent view of how SmartChat™ forms its answers—so you can trust, validate, and refine AI-driven insights with confidence.
Get a clear breakdown of every AI response
Every response in SmartChat™ now includes an expandable breakdown with four key sections:
- Reasoning – Explains the AI’s thought process behind the response.

- Limitations – Flags potential biases, gaps, or uncertainties.

- Answer – Displays the final AI-generated response.

- To consider – Suggests further exploration or next steps.

You control the level of detail—collapse sections for a quick overview or expand them for deeper analysis.
Transparency matters
AI-generated insights are only as useful as their credibility. Whether you’re making business decisions, conducting research, or debugging AI outputs, knowing how an answer was generated provides essential context. Response Breakdown helps users:
- Detect biases and limitations – By reviewing flagged limitations, users can assess whether responses require additional validation.
- Enhance decision-making – Transparent reasoning ensures users make informed choices backed by AI insights.
- Save time troubleshooting AI outputs – teams can pinpoint inconsistencies faster by analyzing the structured breakdown.
Validate AI insights with research and analysis
Scenario: A market research team is using Storytell to generate insights about customer trends.
How Response Breakdown helps: The team can review the Reasoning section to understand why the AI reached specific conclusions, verify the data sources used, and check for potential biases in the Limitations section before incorporating the insights into reports.
Fine-tune marketing and product messaging with AI reasoning
Scenario: A marketing team is generating campaign messaging based on AI-powered audience analysis.
How Response Breakdown helps: Before launching, the team expands the Reasoning and To consider sections to refine messaging and ensure it aligns with brand voice and target audience expectations.
Ensure responses align with customer support standards
Scenario: A customer support team is using Storytell to assist with common user inquiries.
How Response Breakdown helps: The team can verify the Reasoning behind responses to ensure AI-generated solutions align with company policies and don’t introduce misleading or incorrect information.
What to keep in mind
While this feature improves transparency, it’s important to note:
- The Reasoning and Limitations sections are based on available data and may not capture every nuance.
- The To consider section provides suggestions but does not generate additional AI-driven answers.
- Some responses may still require human validation, especially for complex or high-stakes decisions.
How to access it
No setup required—Response Breakdown is automatically included in every SmartChat™ response. Just enter your query as usual and expand the sections to explore AI’s reasoning.
