How this entry was checked

  1. Commitment recordedThe company's words were matched word for word against the filing.
  2. First checkAn AI model, Gemini (Google), read the company's later filings and recorded the outcome with a quoted passage.
  3. Second check: agreesA different AI model, Claude (Anthropic), re-read the evidence without being told the outcome and reached the same answer.
  4. Third check on a negative finding: agreesBecause a negative finding could harm a company if wrong, a stronger model re-read the evidence fully blind and reached the same answer.

Confirmed. This outcome counts towards the company's Kept Score. How verification works
