Evidence verification
A source listed in a paragraph is not a verified fact. Argumont keeps an evidence status on material claims so unsupported numbers cannot hide as certainty.

Evidence-based does not mean a trial for every price change
The phrase is used in medicine and public policy. In business it means you can point to a source when you say a number or a causal story, and you label what you cannot prove.
What it means
It is not a demand for randomized trials on every packaging change. It is a demand that unmeasured claims stay labeled as such, instead of being promoted to facts because they are convenient.
Why it matters
Without evidence, analysis is theater. With bad evidence, it is theater with footnotes. Either way you cannot defend the call.
How to apply it
Every material claim gets a source, a date, and a note on what it does not prove. Missing evidence is a finding, not an embarrassment to skip.
A common trap
Collecting PDFs and never checking whether they support the claim you cited. Citation is not verification.
How Argumont uses this
Claims are classified and given an evidence status. User-confirmed business data is stored as such. Independent verification is a different state.
