Evidence dossier / current interpretation
Claim-source review /
A specific first-party human-comparison or validation claim was located in the reviewed sources and recorded separately. This source-claim review does not establish human-reference validation or independent reproduction.
This review covers the cited sources, not every possible claim or unpublished study. “No specific claim located” does not mean no claim exists.
What this profile establishes
The cited sources establish how the organization publicly describes the tool and its methods.
What it does not establish
Unless explicitly established above, this profile does not establish fidelity to human populations, behavioural prediction, independent reproducibility, or suitability for a decision.
Vendor-reported: human-reference validation
Minds says it compares synthetic audience responses with real survey data, keeps survey outcomes hidden during answer generation, and finalizes answers before comparison. This is a first-party validation-design claim, not an established human-reference result or independent reproduction.
Inspect the vendor sourceThis check is not established by SRI. A first-party report is not independent reproduction.
Versioned evidence record
Inspect the claim ledger and unresolved gaps.
The dossier separates first-party documentation from independent validation and records the funding conflict alongside the evidence.
