Meridian is built on AI. We use third-party language models from Anthropic and OpenAI to help check documents, suggest readiness improvements, and draft letters. We do not train AI models on your data. AI outputs are checks and suggestions. You and the consulate make the actual decisions.
Personal data is removed before content is sent to AI providers (passport numbers, dates of birth, financial identifiers). Whether your prior conversations and vault are used to personalise future AI responses is controlled by the AI personalization toggle above. Core AI features work either way.
