AI Trust and Transparency Card
The AI Trust and Transparency Card lists who provides an agent, which models it runs on, who hosts it, which data it can see, and how that data is protected.
Open the card
Open an agent in Assist, in the standalone web app or embedded inside a Trimble product. Under the message box, select Transparency Card. To close the card, select X, press Esc, or click outside it. Opening the card does not change your conversation or the message you are typing.
The card describes the agent that is selected. After you switch agents, open the card again to see the new agent's details. The top of the card shows the agent's icon, name, and description, as written by the agent's creator. Select Show more to read a long description in full.
Below that, the card has three sections: About this AI, Security & Safeguards, and Data Handling & Accountability. Select a section heading to expand or collapse it. Hover over or focus the info icon next to a row to see what that row means.
The agent's name, description, base models, and data sources come from how its creator set it up in Trimble Agent Studio.
About this AI
| Row | What it means |
|---|---|
| Provider | The company that provides the agent |
| Use is optional | Whether you can do your work without using the agent |
| Model type | The kind of AI model behind the agent, for example a generative model that writes new content from your prompts |
| Base model (or Base models) | The models the agent can run on, the same list as the model picker in the message box. Select Show more when the list does not fit on one row |
| Hosted by | Who runs the infrastructure the agent's models run on |
| Data sources | Everything the agent can see while it works, besides the current conversation |
Data sources
The Data sources row lists every source the agent can draw on besides the current conversation. Connectors and Web search are highlighted, because they can bring in content from outside Trimble. No additional or external data means the agent has none of these sources.
| Chip | What it means |
|---|---|
| Knowledge library | The agent searches documents in knowledge libraries. Select the chip to list the libraries by name. |
| Connector (or Connectors (N)) | The agent reaches other systems through connectors, which can include services outside Trimble. Select the chip to list them by name. |
| Web search | The agent can search the public web |
| Past conversations | The agent can read your own earlier conversations with it |
| Personal memory | The agent can read your Trimble profile, such as your name, contact details, account, and organization, to personalize its answers |
Security and safeguards
| Row | What it means |
|---|---|
| Useable for High-Risk Activities | Whether the agent is built for high-risk uses, such as hiring decisions, safety-critical systems, or biometric identification |
| Encryption at rest | Whether your data is encrypted whenever it is stored, even when the agent is not actively using it |
| Encryption in transit | Whether your data is encrypted while it moves between you, the platform, and any connected tools |
| Model safeguards | Whether content-safety checks run on everything the agent outputs, to catch harmful or inappropriate responses before you see them |
| Human oversight | Whether a person can review and step in before the agent's output leads to any real-world action |
Data handling and accountability
| Row | What it means |
|---|---|
| Used to train model | Whether your data is used to train or fine-tune an AI model |
| Actions are logged | Whether everything the agent does is recorded, so its activity can be reviewed later if needed |
| System errors | Whether technical failures, like a timeout or a connector going offline, are tracked so they can be reviewed and fixed |
For agent creators
You do not fill in the card separately. Assist builds it from your agent's configuration in Trimble Agent Studio.
- Write an agent description that says what the agent is for and what it is not for. It is the first thing people read on the card.
- Give knowledge libraries and connectors names people will recognize, because the card lists them by name.
- Add only the sources the agent needs. Every library and connector you add appears on the card, as do the web search, past conversations, and My Profile built-in tools. Connectors and web search are flagged as external.
The card shows what the platform and you have put in place. It does not replace your own responsibilities as a creator.
