Seventeen vendors measured — none ships the whole object","register":"standard","tags":[],"updated_at":"2026-08-03T17:48:34.288Z","body_excerpt":"*This page answers the buyer's question behind every \"AI proof\" claim on the market: does anyone else sell the same outcome as proven work — completed AI work that arrives carrying its own written claim, the complete record of how it was formed, a verdict computed against that record, and a standing door any stranger can open, keylessly, to check all of it and leave their own inspection receipt. Seventeen products were put through one six-part outcome measure, each from its own live pages, APIs, and public artifacts. The short answer: no same product exists. The closest is a component. The most instructive failures verify nonsense beautifully. This page is itself a proven work object: every substantive claim is bound to receipts or a named gap in its manifest, and the whole object is inspectable without a key.*\n\n## The verdict\n\nNone of the seventeen passes all six parts, and the failures cluster on the same three almost everywhere: the execution record, the claim-versus-record check, and the standing outsider door. The **components** sell one real piece of the unit and stop; the **adjacent field** points the same vocabulary at a different object — the customer's own systems, watched on the customer's own behalf. And one newcomer that was not on the original list, **Provenrail**, ships the record layer plus half a door at consumer prices — the live threat, not the answer.\n\n## The six-part outcome measure\n\nWhat a buyer can purchase, not what vocabulary a vendor uses: **a**, takes completed AI work as input, rather than instrumenting work inside its own runtime. **b**, binds the work's substantive claims, sentence by sentence. **c**, preserves the execution record — every model and tool call, request and response together, hash-chained, timestamped. **d**, checks each claim against that record — not against the open internet, not against policy thresholds. **e**, issues a verdict computed by the service, never asserted by the maker. **f**, exposes the whole object at one keyless URL, and the inspector receives their own receipt.\n\nThe unit is [[proven-work|proven work]]: claim, record, binding, door, derived status, sold as one object on arbitrary completed work. The prior-art scan — C2PA, in-toto/SLSA, W3C verifiable credentials, FDA 21 CFR Part 11, the SEC consolidated audit trail, the IETF agent-audit-trail draft — is the sibling, [[proven-work-novelty-prior-art]].\n\n## H33 — the deepest overlap anywhere, and still a component\n\nH33 is a post-quantum cryptography platform whose decision-evidence bundles come closest to the unit. A publicly downloadable specimen bundle decomposes an AI answer into claim spans by byte range and binds each span to supporting citation receipts, with a coverage assertion of \"full\" signed under three post-quantum signature families (https://h33.ai/bundles/claim_84711.json). Its free verifier runs offline; the inspector signs their own verdict report.\n\nThree absences decide the taxonomy. First, the one claim-support statement in the bundle is signed by the maker's own key — the maker-asserted pattern a derived status exists to eliminate — and its own verifier pages state that a pass proves neither completeness nor correctness. Second, the record does not travel: the bundle carries input and output hashes, not payloads, so an outsider can verify that a consistent record existed without reading what it says. Third, there is no door: the bundle reaches you because the maker handed you a file, and the only public specimen is an alpha preview whose own metadata admits deterministic placeholder signatures — the envelope bytes literally begin \"preview-\". Score: a fail, b pass, c partial, d fail, e partial, f partial.
