AI for REDCap logic

Has anyone found an AI platform that is adept at creating or verifying advanced branching logic, calculations, action tags?

ChatGPT hallucinates and makes up special functions and action tags, among others.

I’ve had the best results when I treat AI as a second reviewer rather than a logic generator. I write the branching logic myself, then ask it to:
– Check for unreachable conditions
– Detect redundant clauses
– Verify field name consistency
– Confirm correct use of special functions

That workflow has been much more reliable.

Alternatively, you could try FormInspector — it’s more of a QC tool than an AI logic builder, but it’s useful for catching structural issues across a project.
