Internal accuracy test

An earlier version of this page described a public scored benchmark and invited people to apply as scorers. That description is withdrawn. This page does not publish scores.

What the test is

We run an internal accuracy test across 10 passages and 6 study modes. Results will be posted on the trust center when the first run is complete.

The six study modes in the app are Summary, Observe, Interpret, Theology, Apply, and Apologetics. The test uses those modes. Until the trust center posts the first run, this page has no score and no completion date.

What produces an answer

Answers are generated with OpenAI and can be wrong, so check the referenced passages. An answer can misquote a verse, attach a real reference to the wrong point, or sound sure when the wording is shaky.

Bible Copilot is a study tool for iPhone and iPad. It is not Scripture, a pastor, a church, or a theological authority. You can ask 3 questions a day with no account. Sign-in is optional. Journal is part of Pro. The app does not sync journal entries, saved passages, or reading progress to the cloud.

How to check an answer yourself

Each answer shows references under the answer. Open the passage. Read the verse the answer used, then read the paragraph or chapter around it. A citation can be a real verse and still fail to support the sentence above it.

  1. Find the references printed under the answer.
  2. Open each one and read the wording on the page.
  3. Keep reading past the single verse before you repeat the claim.
  4. If the answer quotes Scripture, compare that quotation with the passage. Generated study text is not a Bible quotation.
  5. If the answer makes a claim about a Greek or Hebrew word, check the word in a lexicon or interlinear before you rely on it.
  6. Take a medical, legal, safety, or pastoral crisis to a qualified person.

Bible text

Scripture quotations in the app use public-domain translations, including the World English Bible and the King James Version. The Bible reader on this website uses the World English Bible. A website article may also quote the NIV or the ESV when that page carries the publisher notice on the editorial standards page.

Corrections

If you find a mistake in an answer or on a page, email support@mybiblecopilot.com. Include the URL or the app screen, the statement you think is wrong, why it may be wrong, and the passage you checked. The same address is on the trust center.

For the check you can do today, use the references under the answer and the notes on the trust center.
