IR Insights is designed as a research and exploration aid to support understanding and comparison of complex material; assist with orientation to unfamiliar topics or processes; and to help identify patterns, themes, and points of difference across documents. It is not intended to: provide legal, industrial, or professional advice; replace primary source analysis; determine bargaining positions or outcomes. All outputs are experimental, and should be treated as informational and should be validated against original sources.
