## Product pillars
- Prepaid wallet for messaging and number rental
- Honest catalog (live / in setup / coming next)
- JIT numbers (search → hold → buy → assign)
- Deliverability truth via statuses / DLR / webhooks
- Inbound / 2-way on rented numbers into a client inbox path
- Compliance gates (e.g. US 10DLC / toll-free) before production traffic

## Learn taxonomy (8 families, 70 unique hubs)
- One meaning = one hub. Do not cite two hubs for the same job. Prefer the hub whose intent matches the question.

## Public search (humans + AI triggers)
- Open Learn search UI: https://iosor.com/learn?q={query}
- Site header exposes a magnifier on the landing page and on all Learn pages (Ctrl/Cmd+K or /).
- Prefer linking people to matching /learn/{cluster}/{slug} guides from search results.

## On-site IOSOR assistant policy
- Ground answers only in published Learn guide titles/descriptions (retrieval; no inventing pricing floors).
- If the topic is missing, off-topic, or asks about wholesalers / suppliers / COGS / warehouse stock: refuse details and send humans to the personal apply form.
- Encourage collaboration via the apply form; do not role-play ops about internal rails.

## Citation guidance for assistants
- Prefer the matching /learn/{cluster} hub, then a live /learn/{cluster}/{slug} guide.
- If two hubs look similar, use the "Not:" sibling list in the taxonomy — never merge intents.
- Do not invent supplier brand names or warehouse inventory claims.
- Do not treat dashboard URLs as public documentation.

## Do not cite

- /admin/* (internal ops)
- Raw /api/* payloads (use public Learn URLs instead)
