AI verification classification
Last updated
Tier 2 and Tier 3 verification require documents as evidence. AI classification is the first reviewer: it checks that each uploaded document actually satisfies the specific criterion of the slot it was uploaded for — before any badge is granted.
How it works
- 1Each verification slot states what it needs — for example, a capital commitment letter showing a committed amount and a named signatory.
- 2You upload a document into a slot. The AI reads it against that slot's rubric only.
- 3The result is confirm or flag, with the reason stated. A flagged document can be replaced and re-checked.
- 4Tier 4 (Hockystick Verified) adds a human review over all prior evidence — the AI never grants the top badge alone.
Slot-specific rubrics
The classification is deliberately narrow: a bank statement uploaded into the customer-evidence slot fails, even though it is a perfectly good bank statement. One document never satisfies multiple unrelated claims — that rule comes from the verification tier design itself, and the AI enforces it mechanically.
What it does / doesn't
The AI does
- Checks each document against its slot's specific criterion
- States why a document was confirmed or flagged
- Feeds results into the tier system for badge computation
The AI does not
- Grant Tier 4 — the top badge always requires human review
- Use verification documents for anything beyond the check itself
- Expose evidence documents to investors or deal rooms
