HOW QUINQ WORKS.
QUINQ is designed to give incarcerated individuals a safe, structured way to ask approved questions and receive helpful answers. The process begins when a family member purchases a QUINQ package through the website or app for their loved one. After the purchase is made, a trained Information Specialist contacts the incarcerated individual through the approved prison messaging system and sends a consent form along with QUINQ’s rules and compliance guidelines.
Once the incarcerated individual reviews the information and gives informed consent, they can begin submitting their QUINQs, or question-inquiries, to their assigned Information Specialist. The IS then reviews each question through QUINQ’s compliance framework to make sure it fits within approved categories. If the question is allowed, the IS enters it into the appropriate AI platform to generate a response that is useful, clear, and relevant to the user’s needs.
After the AI response is returned, the Information Specialist reviews it carefully a second time to check for accuracy, clarity, tone, and compliance. Once approved, the response is sent back to the incarcerated individual through the approved communication channel. This human-reviewed process helps QUINQ stay focused on what matters most: providing practical, constructive support for education, employment, housing, reentry, and personal development.
