Evidence
Store every claim your software makes, linked to the sources that support or contradict it.
What it is
Evidence is the record of what supports or contradicts every claim your systems make. Each claim is linked to its sources, its provenance, and its current verification state, so an assertion is never separated from the reason it is believed.
How it works
How evidence works
- 1
Capture claims
As artifacts are produced, their assertions are recorded as discrete, addressable claims.
- 2
Attach evidence
Sources are bound to claims as supporting or contradicting evidence, with provenance retained.
- 3
Track state
Each claim carries a verification state and coverage, and conflicts are surfaced rather than hidden.
Key capabilities
What you get

FAQ
Evidence questions
Is evidence tied to a specific artifact version?
Yes. Claims are anchored to the artifact revision that produced them, so provenance survives edits.
What happens when sources disagree?
Contradictions are recorded and surfaced as conflicts rather than silently resolved.
