Step 13

Post-processing

Formats, cites, and sanity-checks output.

What It Does

Takes the raw output from the LLM and applies various transformations such as formatting (bullet points, markdown, JSON), fact-checking against source documents, adding citations, filtering inappropriate content, and summarizing when needed. It serves as a quality control layer before delivering the final response.

Why It Matters

Even with context, LLMs can produce outputs that benefit from an extra check. Post-processing ensures the final answer is not only correct but also presented appropriately. It increases trust and usability by delivering polished, verified responses aligned with application-specific requirements.

Common Challenges

  • Implementing reliable automated fact-checking against source documents
  • Modifying outputs without changing their meaning or introducing errors
  • Adding accurate citations that correctly link statements to sources
  • Balancing thoroughness with response latency
  • Creating robust systems that can handle unexpected model outputs
  • Maintaining output quality while scaling to high query volumes
