Trust & evidence
Every score is explainable, every claim has a source and a timestamp. That’s the moat — not the number.

Stored per-field in api_field_sources (fieldName, source, confidence, observedValue, observedAt).
Principles
- Expose uncertainty: UNKNOWN pricing/cors/auth shown as “Unknown,” not invented.
- Separate facts vs interpretation: measured uptime vs computed grade.
- Date everything: lastVerified, computedAt, checkedAt on every profile.
- Paid never buys rank: provider verification adds badge & edit controls, not score.
