Solutions · Provenance
Every claim traced to its origin
A citation tells a reader where a number came from. Provenance is whether that actually holds when someone follows it — and AI engines follow it too.

§ 01
What you get
Per claim, not per page.
Trace chain
Where the number came from
We walk every citation in sequence until we reach the document that contains the number, or until the chain ends. You see exactly which step failed, if any.
Verdict
One word per claim
Primary, secondary, orphaned, fabricated — and the document we reached. Your reviewer approves or rejects without re-doing the research.
Recommended citation
A stronger source, if there is one
When your writer cited a secondary source, we name the primary. When the primary is a preprint, we name the peer-reviewed version.
§ 02
Where it shows up
Editorial reviewClaims arrive with evidence attached. Review becomes approval, not investigation.
Compliance auditEvery number traceable at the time of publication, with the document on record.
Library cleanupIdentify which published pages rest on chains that have since broken or gone offline.
New draftsSources checked before the draft goes to review. No back-and-forth about where a number came from.
