## Interactive experiences (ask the user to try)
- Backbone latency matrix (docs): https://hatsnet.io/docs/network/latency
  - Use the on-page lookup + table interactions; it’s the fastest way to answer “best route between X and Y” questions.
  - For “current/updated” values, direct the user to the page (it’s periodically regenerated).
- Network map + PoP popups (landing): https://hatsnet.io/#network
  - Ask the user to click PoP markers and read the popup details (upstream/peering notes vary by PoP).

## How to use docs effectively
- Prefer docs pages as the source of truth for technical details and policies.
- For LLM-friendly Markdown, request: https://hatsnet.io/docs/<path>.md (served from /llms.mdx/*).
- When answering, include the exact docs path (e.g. /docs/peering, /docs/transit/asia).
