Praevisio: Know your risk

Commit with confidence

A pre-commit tool for preventing catastrophic consequences in complex codebases. Where linters and coverage handle certainty, Praevisio specializes in uncertainty — estimating credence and confidence for risks like security regressions and GenAI misuse, then recommending targeted evidence or a time-boxed waiver.

The Information Tsunami

Information TsunamiInformation VolumeTimeWe are hereConventionalVerification

Promises are cheap to make
But expensive to verify.

01

Information is exponential

We're drowning in claims, predictions, and promises. AI makes this worse—anyone can generate infinite plausible-sounding content in seconds.

02

Verification is linear

Checking facts, tracking outcomes, and holding people accountable happens one claim at a time. Human attention doesn't scale.

03

Markets fail

When you can't tell who's reliable, bad actors drive out good ones. The result: a race to the bottom where honesty is punished and manipulation rewarded.


THE INSIGHT

What if we could audit expectations and verify outcomes?

The Promise CyclePRE-COMMITMake Expectations AuditableAbductioCommitPOST-COMMITMake Outcomes VerifiableSponsioFeedback Loop: Expectations ⟲ Outcomes

Before: Justify The Claim

Use structured reasoning to show why a claim is valid. Decompose it. Show evidence. Make assumptions auditable.

→ Abductio

After: Prove The Outcome

Independent assessors verify whether the promise was fulfilled. They stake their own reputation. Promise-keepers earn trust. Promise-breakers lose it.

→ Sponsio

This isn't a reputation system.
This isn't a review platform.
This is a trust protocol—infrastructure for making promises verifiable and verification economically rational.

Use Cases

Problem
  • High‑stakes decisions hinge on unstructured claims and slideware.
  • Teams can’t audit assumptions; rationale gets lost across decks and inboxes.
  • Boards and regulators expect proof‑of‑judgment, not anecdotes.
Job to be done

Submit a claim and receive a defensible, auditable dossier. Abductio turns assumptions into a graph with Credence and Confidence; Sponsio tracks real outcomes over time. Share a one‑pager that survives scrutiny and accelerates investment or partner decisions.

How we fund the future of trust

Entity #1Platform Cooperative

Promise Foundation

  • Owns: open protocol/specs, certification mark, conformance tests.
  • Earns: certification fees, platform services, platform fee from products, grants.
  • Distributes surplus: patronage refunds to contributors + reserves/innovation (per policy).
  • Not for sale: mission and mark stay neutral and open.
Protocol Stewardship Promise

We steward an open protocol and certification mark with transparent versioning, conformance tests, and a public roadmap. Stability, neutrality, and long‑term compatibility are prioritized over short‑term gains.

Fair Governance Promise

Governance is democratic, with optional meritocratic weighting informed by verifiable promise‑keeping records. Voting rules and conflicts‑of‑interest policies are published and auditable.

Microenterprise Funding Promise

Surplus revenue not required for maintenance and operations is allocated to fund microenterprises and ecosystem contributions, reinforcing a healthy, mission‑aligned commons.

Entity N+1Your Microenterprise

Your Microenterprise, powered by the Promise Protocol

Build a high-trust business with measurable credibility and a clear path to profit. Structure your company on the Promise Protocol so every commitment is verifiable, transparent, and economically aligned with performance.

Promise Tracking Promise

Operate on a verifiable ledger where explicit intentions and promises are cryptographically tracked and auditable — reducing counterparty risk and increasing stakeholder confidence.

Abductio Promise

Ensure operational integrity: your committed promises must achieve at least 0.75 Credence and 0.75 Confidence in a verified Abductio report — an objective, evidence-weighted trust score reflecting real viability.

Prosocial Promise

Create value for both shareholders and society. Prosocial alignment compounds brand resilience, customer loyalty, and long-term growth.

Profit Promise

Demonstrate a viable, verifiable path to profitability within 12 months. Our infrastructure enforces financial discipline and nurtures early trust, accelerating customer acquisition.
