Concepts¶
The ideas behind the engine
Almost everything Telha does follows from a handful of ideas. Read these in order and the rest of the product, from the query grammar to the trace viewer, will feel inevitable.
-
1 · World state, not documents
Telha stores versioned facts projected out of your documents and systems. Documents are evidence; state is the product.
-
2 · The tritemporal model
Three clocks on every fact: when it was true, when Telha learned it, and what date the source itself asserts.
-
3 · Provenance to the span
Every fact links to the exact byte ranges of the exact source version it came from, and survives corrections.
-
4 · Confidence & decay
Facts carry confidence; relationships weaken over graph distance; hybrid queries fuse similarity with that decay.
-
5 · Verified answers
Generation plans evidence under a budget, generates from the plan only, then verifies every claim against the planned spans.
-
6 · When Telha is not sure, it asks
Unpinnable facts open a clarification, routed from the graph, delivered as a one-tap card, recorded as evidence.
-
7 · Memory that tells you when it changes
Telha does not only answer when asked. Watch what you rely on and hear the moment it moves, with receipts and permissions intact.
-
8 · Tenancy & security
Cross-tenant reads are unrepresentable by construction; classified fields are encrypted before core sees them; access is deny-by-default.
The one-sentence version
Search retrieves text; Telha resolves state. It remembers every version of every fact, tells you what was true and when, and proves every answer against the source bytes it came from.
