Understanding Entity Profiles

Every entity in the library — whether a person, organization, program, or location — has a dedicated profile page. Profiles consolidate everything the library knows about that entity into one place, with each piece of information traceable back to its source.

Profile Header

At the top of every profile you'll see the entity's name, its type (Person, Organization, Program, or Location), and one or more tier badges. T1 means the entity appears in US government documents. T2 means it appears in research sources or witness testimony. An entity can carry both badges if it appears in sources from multiple tiers.

Profile Section

The Profile section contains an AI-synthesized summary of the entity, written from the library sources. This is not copied verbatim from any single document — it is a synthesis of what multiple sources collectively say about this entity. For a person it might cover their role, institutional affiliations, and known involvement in UAP-related events. For a program it covers stated purpose, known participants, and documented timeline.

Profile text is AI-generated and should be treated as a research starting point. Follow the citations and source documents to verify specific claims.

Facts Section

Below the profile narrative is a structured table of key facts — specific data points extracted from source documents and presented as labeled key-value pairs. Examples include dates, titles, organizational roles, locations, and documented statements. Each fact carries a source tier label so you can immediately see whether it comes from a government document (T1), a research source (T2), or AI-enriched background context (T3).

Timeline Section

The Timeline tab on an entity profile shows all events in the library that this entity participated in, arranged chronologically. Events sourced from library documents appear with their tier badge and a link to the source. AI BG (AI Background) events are supplementary context events — biographical milestones and career notes — generated to fill gaps and labeled clearly so they are never confused with primary source events.

Relationships Section

This section lists other entities that are directly connected to the current entity, along with the relationship type and the source document that establishes the connection. Relationship types include things like DIRECTED, OVERSAW, WORKED_FOR, COLLABORATED_WITH, WITNESSED, INVESTIGATED, TESTIFIED_ABOUT, CONFIRMED, and DISCLOSED, among others. Every relationship edge was extracted from a specific document — you can click through to see the source.

Entity Graph Button

At the top of the profile there is an Entity Graph button. Clicking it loads the Relationship Graph pre-populated with this entity's first-degree network — every entity it is directly connected to, with all edges visible. This is the fastest way to visualize an entity's place in the broader disclosure record. See Using the Relationship Graph for full details on working with the graph view.

Where does the data come from? T1 facts originate from US government documents. T2 facts come from research sources. T3 AI background context is always labeled as such and is intended for orientation, not citation. When evaluating any claim, look at the tier label and follow the link to the source document.
