How it works
The method, stated plainly.
How a community report becomes an entry, how the number is read, and what the badge attests.
The Method
We measure the real-world evidence from people who already use a product. Each person reports outcomes against their own baseline. We model those reports into an effect index and a 95 percent credible interval, and we record the number of reports as n.
An entry reaches validated when its interval separates from no effect and the reporting population is sufficient. Until then it is marked in progress. When the estimate does not separate from no effect, it is marked null and published anyway. Absence is a finding.
We report the non-responders. We do not round the uncertainty away.
The Separation Rule
The verification layer is the verdict: clinical, plain, and un-persuasive on purpose. It states the method and the number. The experience layer is everything around the verdict: warm, human, and alive. Marketing may surround the verdict. Marketing never touches it.
What the Badge Means
The validated badge is a notary, not a judge. It attests that an entry was measured by the method, reached the threshold, and is recorded with its effect index and credible interval.
It is an efficacy attestation. It is not medical advice, and it is not a recommendation to take anything. That decision stays with you and your physician.
Editorial Independence
No brand pays for a verdict, places one, or edits one. The evidence is uninfluenced. The record is append-only: a published result cannot be removed, and a correction appends rather than overwrites.
