Public reviews, review quality, review count, review freshness, and patterns across trusted platforms.
PROOF SYSTEM
Proof Index
Proof means visible information an Australian buyer can review before contacting a company. The index shows the eight signals used to organise company research.
Eight research signals
How Company Proof Is Read
Each signal covers a different part of vendor risk. Strong proof across several signals is more useful than one impressive claim.
Portfolio Signals
Visible work samples, case studies, project types, technical range, and service depth.
Service Fit
How closely the company matches the buyer's project type, budget, platform, and delivery needs.
Australian Buyer Fit
Australian location, Australian client work, business-hour overlap, or clearly described offshore support.
Delivery Model
Local, offshore, hybrid, fixed-scope, and dedicated team models, with clear responsibility for each model.
Company History
Operating history, public company information, leadership visibility, and continuity over time.
Public Reputation
Business conduct, independent references, visible experience, and how the company handles client issues.
Red Flags
Weak public information, unclear services, copied content, fake-looking reviews, no visible portfolio, or unclear ownership.
