The Verdict

One call. All the receipts.

No dashboard of scores to interpret. The whole standing team converges on a single, binding decision — and shows its work all the way down to the quoted line. This is what you get back.

SHIP FIX KILL
A verdict, in full

Every part of the team, one report.

A sample verdict on a landing page. Notice who caught what — the Council, the Check, the Ghost, and the Buyer Panel all surface in a single call.

Anatomy

Six things in every verdict.

The format never changes, so you learn to read it once. Each part is owned by a different member of the team.

The call

The Lead

SHIP, FIX, or KILL. One binding decision — never a score you're left to interpret. The Lead integrates everything below into it.

Findings with receipts

The Council

Each finding pinned to the exact line, severity-ranked, and attributed to the expert who caught it. Chain of custody, not a black box.

The claim-sort

The Check

Every assertion held to evidence and sorted: verified, inferred, or contradicted. The verdict rests on what survives, not what sounds good.

The competitive read

The Ghost

Who's actually winning your buyer — the real, unnamed rival, not the obvious one. The work has to beat who's really in the race.

The buyer verdict

The Buyer Panel

Would your real buyers act? Including the dissent seats — the Anti-Buyer who never converts, and the Wrong Yes whose enthusiasm is a warning.

What would change it

The Lead

The shortest path to a different call. A FIX isn't a dead end — it's a punch list with the verdict flip attached.

The call

Three words. No hedging.

SHIP

It's ready. Send it.

The team found nothing that would cost you. Ship with confidence, not crossed fingers — and the receipts to back the decision if anyone asks.

FIX

Close, but not yet.

Specific, addressable problems stand between this and ready. The verdict names each one — and tells you exactly what would flip it to SHIP.

KILL

Don't ship this.

No edit saves it — the premise, not the polish, is the problem. Rare, and the most valuable verdict there is when it's the honest one.

Two formats, one verdict

For your team, and your agents.

A report you read in a click

The full verdict, human-readable and shareable — the whole team's reasoning laid out for anyone who needs to see why the call is the call.

Clean data your agents consume

The same verdict as structured output. As your production goes agentic, your own agents read Arbitia's judgment directly — the gate becomes part of the pipeline.
