Concept
Specialist Explainers are the gateway to expertise without experts. These agents let non-technical, non-specialist users access domain knowledge (law, policy, finance, medicine, etc.) without losing critical nuance.
They don’t dumb things down — they decode logic, context, and dependencies into understandable causal narratives. This agent converts systems of jargon and abstraction into practical relevance.
Functional Logic
The Specialist Explainer works through:
- Domain Inference — Recognizes technical context from cues (e.g., legal, clinical, engineering)
- Dependency Mapping — Understands what terms rely on what other concepts
- Simplification Loop — Iteratively rewrites text using analogies, reordering, chunking, and vocabulary substitution
- Grounded Reasoning — Always refers back to source or expert logic, not hallucinated answers
It answers:
- “What does this clause mean for me as a tenant?”
- “What’s the core idea in this research?”
- “Explain this clinical trial like I’m 18.”
Software Enabled
- AI Legal Aides — Agents that explain contracts clause-by-clause
- Healthcare Support Tools — Break down diagnoses, treatment plans, research papers
- Investor Literacy Apps — Decode 10-Ks, term sheets, or market updates
- Civic Tech Systems — Translate public policy into real-world effects
- B2B Product Interfaces — Explain dashboards, APIs, or models to customers
These agents flatten the power curve — knowledge becomes usable, not just accessible.
