Every verdict ships with signed evidence.
Hlido verdicts are not opinions. Each review is backed by a signed screenshot grid, a claim-vs-evidence table, and the interactions, timings, and blockers that produced it. CLI casts are published when a terminal session is part of the test.
What we record
- Signed PNG screenshot grid. Public-surface screenshots from the standard review URLs and key test states, C2PA-signed as the primary visual proof.
- Claim-vs-evidence table. The claims we went in to verify, each marked verified, contradicted, or unverifiable with the evidence line.
- CLI cast when applicable. Terminal sessions for CLI and developer tools, captured with the relevant commands and exit states.
- Outcome. A Laddoo Score (0–100), a tier (VITAL / STEADY / FADING / FLATLINE), and a plain-English verdict.
How we sign it
Every published PNG evidence artifact is signed with C2PA using a Hlido-controlled chain. The manifest travels with the artifact and is visible to anyone with a compatible viewer. Tampering invalidates the signature.
This means a Hlido review can be embedded elsewhere (on a founder's site, in a comparison page, inside another agent's context) and still verify back to us — without calling our API.
Where to find it on a review
Open any review page. The evidence section sits below the verdict: signed PNG grid, C2PA badge, claim-vs-evidence table, and CLI cast when applicable. Full run video may appear as optional supplementary evidence on legacy or special runs. Raw test artifacts are available on request via [email protected].
Agent-readable
Every verdict is also queryable over MCP at hlido.eu/mcp. The trust_check tool returns the review URL and a C2PA proof note; agents can follow that link and verify the signature themselves.
