Free

Auto

Theo picks the right depth from your question and your tier. The default for everyone.

Example: "What does the Quran say about patience?"

Free

Quick

Short, direct answers with citations. No thinking trace. Best for quick fiqh lookups and verse references.

Example: "What is the time for Maghrib prayer?"

Plus tier

Reasoner

Balanced depth with visible thinking. Investigation trace, evidence map, chain-of-verification preview.

Example: "How do the four madhabs differ on wiping over socks?"

Tahqiq tier

Deep

Extended investigation across multiple rounds. Full thinking trace; private mode (no cross-user signals).

Example: "Trace this hadith's authenticity through every collection that records it."

HOW THEO THINKS

Five layers. Every question.

01

Retrieve

Search 668K+ IPSC documents across Quran, Hadith, Rijal, and Ilal indexes for relevant primary sources.

02

Investigate

Deploy 14 corpus tools over 5 iterative rounds — narrator lookup, chain analysis, grade verification, cross-referencing.

03

Generate

Apply 12 cognitive operations from classical tahqiq to construct a structured, evidence-based response.

04

Verify

Chain-of-Verification (CoVe) — every citation checked against the corpus. No hallucinated sources.

05

Personalize

Adapt to your preferred madhab, knowledge level, and contextual needs for relevant, accessible answers.

SEE IT IN ACTION

One hadith. Six investigation steps.

Click through what Theo actually does on a single question — "Actions are judged by intentions." Find the hadith across collections, walk the chain of narrators, weigh each narrator's reliability, check for hidden defects, and read the verdict. Every screen here is the same data Theo cites at chat.theogrid.ai.

Step 1The Hadith

إنما الأعمال بالنيات

Actions are judged by intentions, and every person shall have what they intended.

Eve-Theology™ F5/reasoner · IPSC V3

SIX GUARANTEES

What makes Theo different in practice.

01

Cited vs Considered

Every answer separates evidence Theo actually used in reasoning from evidence Theo looked at and set aside. Both are inspectable; nothing is hidden by omission.

02

Recall drawer

Any cited hadith opens to its full chain of narrators, grading rationale, and source-collection page reference — mid-conversation, without losing your place.

03

Insufficient-evidence frame

When the corpus does not contain enough to answer, Theo says so plainly and explains what additional sources would be needed — never fabricates to fill the gap.

04

Tahqiq is private

Your deep-investigation sessions never feed any model training, ours or third-party. Tahqiq™ mode runs in a session-private context that is not retained for training, fine-tuning, or evaluation.

05

Anonymous-first

Start asking without an account. The full free tier (15 questions a day) requires no sign-in, no email, no phone. An account is optional and unlocks memory, history, and longer sessions.

06

EBO, never fatwa

Theo produces Evidence-Based Opinions (EBOs) — structured analyses with evidence presented openly, reasoning visible, confidence calibrated, every source cited. Never a ruling. The scholar decides.

NINE WAYS THEO REMEMBERS

Personalized scholarship, on your terms.

Madhab preference

Hanafi · Maliki · Shafi'i · Hanbali · Ja'fari. Theo leads with your madhab's reasoning and notes where the others differ.

Knowledge level

Student · intermediate · advanced. Determines depth of terminology, density of citation, and assumption baseline.

Topical interests

Quranic studies · hadith sciences · fiqh · aqidah · seerah · tasawwuf · history · contemporary issues. Surfaces related questions you'd care about.

Custom instructions

Free-text directives — "always show the Arabic before translation," "cite Hanbali fatwas first," "skip introductory framing." Applied to every answer.

Journey arcs

Multi-session research projects with cumulative context — Theo carries your thread forward when you return to "the inheritance question" or "Surah Yusuf tafsir comparison."

Recall depth

How far back Theo carries context — last 10 messages, current journey only, or full conversation history. Tune to taste.

Citation style

Academic (Chicago, BibTeX), classical (full isnad + grade), or plain (collection + number). Switch on a per-conversation basis.

UI vs evidence language

UI in English, Arabic, Urdu, Indonesian, or Malay; primary evidence always shown in original Arabic with translation alongside. RTL handled throughout.

What's remembered (and not)

Per-category memory toggles — keep madhab preference, forget conversation history. Export everything. Delete everything. On your terms, in your settings.

QUESTIONS

Frequently asked.

No. Theo produces Evidence-Based Opinions (EBOs), not fatwas. An EBO presents evidence, shows the reasoning chain, and calibrates confidence — but the human always decides. Always consult living scholarship for binding guidance.

Theo reasons from the Islamic Primary Source Corpus (IPSC) — 668,436 documents including the complete Quran, 449,415 hadith across 61 collections, 197,868 narrator assessments from 20 rijal works, and 14,917 chain defect analyses.

No. Theo presents evidence from all major Sunni schools — Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi'i, and Hanbali. You can set a preferred madhab in your profile, and Theo will prioritize that school's methodology while still showing comparative evidence.

Your conversations are stored on Microsoft Azure (East US 2) to power memory and personalization. They are never used to train AI models. Encrypted in transit and at rest. Tahqiq and Institute tiers run in private mode — no cross-user signals. Anonymous use needs no signup at all. Full detail on the privacy page.

Yes. Theo supports a full Arabic interface with native RTL layout. All primary source texts — Quran, hadith, and narrator biographies — are stored and displayed in the original Arabic.
