Evidence Library

What counts as evidence

Evidence in Verifolio is process-level documentation. It shows what you did, when you did it, and how deeply you were involved. Each type maps to a specific category of activity.

Evidence types

Verifolio supports eleven categories of process evidence. Each adds measurable signals to the Evidence Strength Score and links to the claims in a dossier.

How evidence works in a dossier

01

Add evidence when creating a dossier

Choose the evidence type that matches your activity. Enter the records, dates, metrics, and context. Evidence stays local in your browser.

02

Evidence is linked to your claim

Verifolio compares your English claim against your source evidence. It detects role mismatch, supervision context, and unsupported language.

03

A reviewer-ready package is built

The dossier shows Evidence Strength Score, safer wording, and all evidence records in a structured format reviewers can read quickly.

Evidence visibility and privacy

What Verifolio stores locally

  • Evidence metadata (type, dates, metrics)
  • Source text you enter (not the file itself)
  • SHA-256 fingerprint if a file is uploaded
  • Claim text and alignment result
  • Evidence Strength Score breakdown

What Verifolio never uploads

  • The full content of your source file
  • Photos or scans of physical documents
  • Personal details beyond what you enter
  • Your claim text to any external API
