Ask CheckMate

Use CheckMate to query connected AI models from the CheckMate panel during a Session. CheckMate supports document search, which automatically searches your uploaded files for relevant content. You can continue conversations beyond the initial query using CheckMate Chat. CheckMate is also available in Session Review, where you can access your CheckMate notes, queries, and AI responses from the Session.

Prevail CheckMate

CheckMate is Prevail’s AI integration for Sessions. Use CheckMate to query connected AI models, search your uploaded documents, and ask general questions during a live Session. For a full overview, see Prevail CheckMate.

CheckMate automatically searches your files when you query a connection. If matching files are found, the response includes relevant passages and file names as clickable links. If you’re using the Prevail Native Solution, upload files to the My Files folder in your Prevail Briefcase. For supported providers, upload your files to the appropriate location. For more information, see CheckMate Document Search.

Share CheckMate Notes

Share your notes with Organizations or individual members who are active Session participants.
