Zero-Hallucination Tri-State Guard

To preserve uncompromising advertising craft, answers follow strict anti-slop verification:

  • Taught in Lecture (قال في المحاضرة): Grounded claims with minute:second chapter timestamps.
  • Suggested Application (تطبيق مقترح): Creative ideas generated for your brief, explicitly labeled.
  • Not in Lecture (مش مذكور في المحاضرة): Refuses to hallucinate unsupported marketing theories.
