We are a rational engine, not a black box.
Idea OS publishes its methodology: rubric dimensions, fact schemas, and cross-agent validation rules are visible in the open. Reasoning is surfaced in plain language, assumptions are flagged, and you get citations plus evidence-quality signals — so you know what we relied on and what is still uncertain.
- Public rubric dimensions
- Cited claims with confidence bands
- Assumption flags on every verdict
- Cross-agent validation checks
Researched claims include sources. Unverified assumptions and unavailable research are marked clearly.
