Every verdict ships with signed evidence.
Hlido verdicts are not opinions. Each review is backed by a recorded test run, cryptographically signed with C2PA, and published alongside the interactions, timings, and blockers that produced it.
What we record
- Full run video. The browser session that produced the verdict, from landing page to final state. Trimmed only for load screens.
- Interaction log. Every click, form fill, state transition, and blocker we hit — timestamped.
- Test checklist. The claims we went in to verify, each marked verified, contradicted, or unverifiable with the evidence line.
- Outcome. A Laddoo Score (0–100), a tier (SIGNAL / STEADY / WATCH / SKIP), and a plain-English verdict.
How we sign it
Every published artifact is signed with C2PA using a Hlido-controlled chain. The manifest travels with the video 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: video player, C2PA badge, downloadable interaction JSON. Score breakdowns are linked from there; raw test artifacts are available on request via ankit@hlido.eu.
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.
