Who writes the briefs

Evidence Briefs: research on one company or asset plus one or two layers of its supply chain, where every claim keeps the document, page and bounding box it came from. Three 2025 annual reports have been through the pipeline — 36 evidence records, 29 of them facts, 29 of 29 matched against the PDF text layer.

Alongside it, a free DOI retraction lookup built on a CC0 citation graph, and graphrag-ts, the engine that makes both possible.

• Three sample reports — click a claim, land on the page
• Evidence Brief case study — format, price, timeline
• Free DOI retraction lookup — no key, no account

1. Scope in writing

   A fixed deliverable list, a fixed price and a stated date. If the scope is unclear, we cut it rather than guess.

2. One section before payment

   One section is written on the real target and handed over before any money moves, so the format is settled while it is still free to walk away.

3. Handover, no lock-in

   Report, evidence file, repository and deployment access are yours. Nothing runs on infrastructure only we can reach.

Before the retrieval engine: the interface layer. Campaign dashboards built to survive a launch day, rule engines that decide what a user can see, and test suites that run on every diff.
