One case per product: four answering from their own sources, and Pseudo taking the names out.
Clients want to give the shares of their property company to their two children. Is that 3%, or exempt as a family company?
Summary
A gift of shares is a gift of movable property, so in Flanders it is 3% in direct line. VCF art. 2.8.4.1.1
The family-company exemption takes that to 0%, but it needs a real economic activity, which holding and letting property is not. VCF art. 2.8.6.0.3
Whether professional letting qualifies is judged on the facts, and VLABEL has accepted it in individual rulings. VLABEL VB 24029

The file behind the answer
A library of sources is the starting point. The work is deciding what belongs in the file for your question.
The library is the starting point
Each product searches the real sources of its own field: the rules themselves, the decisions that apply them and the official guidance around them. Kept current, each document carrying the date from which it applied.
Deciding what belongs in the file
Our own search weighs which passages settle the question: what was in force, what carries more authority, and the one that contradicts the easy answer. How it does that is the subject of our working paper.
What is missing counts too
Silence in the sources is not the same as a no. Where the library does not cover your question, the file says so and the answer stops there.
The file travels with the answer
Each paragraph names the source it rests on, in the version that applied on your date, so you can open it and judge for yourself.

Auryth Pseudo reads and pseudonymises them in your browser, and the list that links each pseudonym to a real name stays on your device. What you paste into ChatGPT or Claude is the pseudonymised text.

The next frontiers in AI beyond scaling
The era of making models bigger is ending. Five paradigms are replacing brute-force scaling: hybrid architectures, inference-time reasoning, world models, self-improvement loops, and hardware co-design. What each means for AI in regulated industries.
Bilingual Belgian tax law: why NL/FR is a prerequisite, not a feature
Federal law is published in Dutch and French. Regional codes exist in one language only. Rulings follow the language of the procedure. A monolingual AI tool misses half the corpus.
