EMA explains how its AI tool “Scientific Explorer” is validated and controlled (FAQ updated March 2026)


Introduction EMA explains how Scientific Explorer uses validated AI, controlled prompts, secure EU cloud hosting, source verification and F1 scores of 0.89–0.94.

EMA published a short FAQ describing “Scientific Explorer,” an AI-enabled search tool used by the EU regulatory network to find regulatory precedents. The pharma-relevant part is the transparency: EMA describes it as information retrieval, not “AI generating new decisions,” and gives concrete validation metrics (F1 score range) plus hosting/governance details (secure EU cloud; no training new models on EMA data).
