Sample record
Readers apply their own rules
An institution runs its policy against a shared record and receives a signed statement showing met, gap or stop for each rule. The decision stays with the institution.

The decision stays with your team.
Watch keeps it current
Sources are re-checked on their own clocks. A change produces an alert and, after review, a new signed version.
Anyone can verify a report
Every report and statement has a number. Enter it on the public verification page to confirm it is genuine, current and unchanged.
Who pays
Companies pay for their own record; institutions pay for access under an enterprise agreement. No one pays twice for the same record, and sharing is never billed.
Verified and Verified Plus are priced to your size; you see the exact price, line by line, before you commit.
