Detection Layer: Semantic Analysis
Protocol 1.0 operates on the semantic layer—analyzing the meaning of words and phrases through zero-shot classification. This means no training is required per use case; the protocol defines its own measurement criteria.
What It Detects
- Concepts: Semantic ideas defined in your protocol nuances
- Entities: People, organizations, products mentioned
- Relationships: How entities connect to concepts
- Temporal Flow: When things happen in sequence
Coming in 1.5+
- Syntactic: Structural patterns, discourse markers
- Pragmatic: Speech acts, speaker intent
- Spectral: Frequency-domain pattern analysis
Output Formats
Scores
Numerical scores (0-1) for each nuance defined in your protocol. Represents how strongly the content matches each pattern.
Timeline
Temporal ordering of detected markers, showing when each pattern appeared in the interaction sequence.
Entity Map
Structured extraction of entities mentioned in the content, classified by type and linked to relevant segments.
The Glass-Box Guarantee
Every detection in Protocol 1.0 is traceable. You can always ask "why?" and get an evidence-based answer. This is what separates Blankstate from black-box AI systems.
Reconstruction Chain
From any score, trace back through the marker that triggered it, to the specific segment of content, to the exact location in your source document.
API Integration
Protocol 1.0 is accessible through the Blankstate API. All usage is measured in ICS (Interaction Compute Seconds).
