Verification standards for FinansLab labels: Verified, Partial, and Unverified. Includes evidence requirements and confidence interpretation.

Last updated: 2026-03-31

Trust docs
Verified

Direct, current evidence is mapped to a specific claim and behavior.

Partial

Evidence exists but coverage is incomplete, aging, or only segment-level.

Unverified

No reliable evidence map is available yet. Treat this as unresolved risk.

What labels help with
  • • Measuring confidence quality, not hype.
  • • Spotting where evidence is strong vs weak.
  • • Reducing overconfident checkout decisions.
Common mistakes to avoid
  • • Treating Verified as payout guarantee.
  • • Ignoring Partial/Unverified before payment.
  • • Skipping compare and rulebook checks.

Evidence requirements

  • Evidence must map to concrete claims (payout terms, rule wording, enforcement behavior).
  • Evidence is freshness-aware; aging evidence reduces confidence weight.
  • Contradictions between policy and complaints are recorded as risk pressure.
  • Missing evidence is labeled explicitly to prevent false certainty.
