Vision Analysis (Charts & Graphs)

Auto-detect visual content

Automatically enable vision when charts/graphs detected

Always use vision analysis

Force vision on for all documents

How it works: The system scans PDFs for pages with charts, graphs, tables, or low-text content. When detected, vision analysis automatically activates to analyze visual elements.

Status: Auto-detect enabled

AI Response Cache

Cached responses ensure consistent scoring for the same document

Clear Cache: removes stored responses. Full Reset: also clears current session's AI suggestions for complete re-analysis.

🔗 Linked Documents

Supporting documents linked in the application PDF

🔓 Third-party fetch services

Allow public CORS proxies and Google's document viewer when a linked document can't be fetched directly

Privacy note: When enabled, document links found in the application (and, for proxy fetches, the documents' contents) pass through third-party services (allorigins.win, Google Docs viewer) that have no data agreement with the county. Leave OFF for sensitive applicants and download linked documents manually instead. Default: off.
