Workbench

Free evidence coverage and gaps are available on this page.

You can download a one-page evidence mirror of your idea today.

Not yet: It does not verify anything externally — everything is self-reported.

Next: Stays free; feeds the future evidence-gated report.

Coverage now matches evidence TYPE per question, not only evidence level.

Customer interviews no longer inflate market or finance coverage.

Not yet: It is threshold coverage only — never market proof or a quality grade.

Next: Per-claim matching deepens with MI-4.

The legacy report is explicitly marked not evidence-gated.

You can tell which output predates the evidence system.

Not yet: Legacy content is not being restyled — it will be retired, not fixed.

Next: Hidden from users once the evidence-gated report ships.

AI Advisor tools generate drafts and heuristic reviews. They are not evidence-gated market intelligence.

Discovery scripts, landing copy, proposals, finance reviews and outreach previews are real AI-generated drafts for you to edit.

Not yet: No verified investor database, no guaranteed outreach results, no audited financial analysis, and no autonomous sending promise.

Next: Tighten confirmation flows and separate draft tools from evidence-gated Venture Lab reports.

Every future paid-report section carries exactly one state: provider-verified, self-reported, evidence required, or not available.

The honesty model for the paid report is locked in code.

Not yet: No paid report is generated from it yet.

Next: Consumes verified claims in MI-5.

A 10-page renderer prototype exists — fixture-based, not production.

Paid report visual prototype: built, not production.

Not yet: No download here — it renders fixture data, not your project.

Next: Connects to real verified claims after MI-5.

The truth contract exists: source taxonomy, quality tiers, binding iron rules.

The standard every future market claim must meet is locked.

Not yet: Not yet a user-facing report of any kind.

Next: Enforced end-to-end from MI-4 onward.

Source and claim contracts exist with closed unions and fixtures.

A claim without a user-readable source can never verify.

Not yet: No claims are being produced yet.

Next: MI-4 binds real sources to real claims.

Controlled retrieval skeleton exists: budget caps, audit logs, honest failures.

Retrieval can never silently substitute AI guesses for missing data.

Not yet: Not wired to any user-facing feature.

Next: Feeds claim binding in MI-4.

The real search adapter boundary exists; the no-key path proves nothing runs without credentials.

Credential handling is isolated and audited.

Not yet: No user-triggered search exists.

Next: Serves the retrieval POC and MI-4.

Live source retrieval smoke passed locally; retrieved URLs remain unbound source candidates.

The platform CAN fetch real external pages under caps and audit.

Not yet: Retrieval candidates only — no claim is supported by them yet.

Next: Claim binding pending (MI-4).

Source candidate grouping exists: market, competitor, pricing, weak-signal sets with named gaps.

Candidates get organized honestly; missing data stays a named gap.

Not yet: This is not claim binding and produces no conclusions.

Next: Grouped candidates enter MI-4 binding.

Early foundation modules from Phase 8.3 (evidence-foundation, audit-trail-foundation, report-binding-foundation and their loader modules) exist in GitHub; most have been superseded by Phase 9 evidence, audit, and report contracts (9Q audit, FR-2).

These modules are retained for audit and type-reference history. They are not separate user-facing product features.

Not yet: No standalone Phase 8.3 foundation workflow is exposed on the platform.

Next: Keep as historical reference unless a future cleanup batch formally deprecates or removes replaced loaders.

Advisor Board remains a blueprint module and is not connected to the current Venture Lab workflow.

The platform does not yet provide a separate advisor-board experience. Existing advisor-style outputs come from current routed agents and evidence-gated previews, not this legacy blueprint module.

Not yet: No dedicated Advisor Board workflow, UI, or production route exists yet.

Next: Future review can decide whether to connect Advisor Board into the OS workflow or retire it as a historical blueprint.

Claim-source binding built, not production; bound claims exist in fixtures only.

The system can now bind retrieval candidates to specific evidence-request claims internally, with source quality scoring and conflict detection. This is not a paid report output yet.

Not yet: No source-backed paid report, no production claim display, and no verified market conclusions are available yet.

Next: MI-5 paid report assembly can consume bound evidence candidates after additional review; MI-6 is still required for real source cards.

Paid report assembly built, not production; consumes bound evidence candidates only.

The system can now assemble evidence-gated paid report section drafts internally using MI-4 bound evidence candidates. This is not a final paid report and does not create a PDF.

Not yet: No paid report is open, no PDF download exists, no source cards are displayed, and no checkout or production route is available yet.

Next: MI-6 real source cards in PDF preview, then MI-7 production paid route.

Real source cards render in the PDF preview from bound evidence; still not a production paid report.

Internally, verified sections can now print real source cards — title, full URL, publisher, access date, source quality tier and the exact claim supported. A verified section without a valid source card is fully downgraded to evidence required. This is an internal preview, not a purchasable report.

Not yet: No production paid report, no user-facing PDF download, no checkout and no production route exist yet.

Next: Persistence, then payment/entitlement, then the MI-7 production paid route.

Production paid route locked until MI-7 — after binding, assembly and source cards.

Nothing is sold as a professional market report before the pipeline earns it.

Not yet: No production paid route exists.

Next: Opens only after MI-4 through MI-6 ship.
