KNOWIDEA, Georgia Tech Publish VeriPIE to Make AI Queries Checkable
New York – October 13, 2026 -- KNOWIDEA, the decision intelligence company, has published a research paper co-authored with Georgia Tech and developed with one of the world's largest asset managers, aimed at making AI-generated financial database queries verifiable before they inform decisions.
The paper, titled "VeriPIE: Checkable Query Plans and Evidence-Guided Selection for Text-to-SQL," describes a method that improves the accuracy of AI-written database queries. Each answer comes with evidence that a risk team can validate before acting on it.
Silent query errors return plausible but wrong numbers
Banks, asset managers and corporate finance teams are adopting AI tools that convert plain-English questions into database queries, a task known as text-to-SQL. According to the paper, the main danger is not the query that fails but the one that runs, returns a reasonable number and is wrong.
