What does the ISO Companion know?

The ISO companion uses a technique called retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to incorporate information from chosen ISO-sources and turn into an expert in ISO-specific rules. Concretely, the Companion sources its information from these documents:

• ISO/IEC Directives Part 1 and Consolidated ISO Supplement
• ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2, Principles and rules for the structure and drafting of ISO and IEC documents
• ISO/IEC Guide 17:2016, Guide for writing standards taking into account the needs of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises
• ISO/IEC Guide 2:2004 Standardization and related activities — General vocabulary
• ISO/IEC 17000:2020, Conformity assessment — Vocabulary and general principles
• ISO helpdesk knowledge base
• ISO website
• ISO house style guide
• TMB documents
  • TMB communiqué
  • TMB résolutions
  • TMB meeting minutes
• ISO Policy and Governance information, including:
  • ISO Statutes
  • ISO Rules of Procedure
  • ISO Code of Ethics and Conduct
  • (Most) other ISO Policy governance documents. Note that this is not yet the complete list, but covers most day to day enquiries.
