An explanatory map of the professional workflow KLARMASS supports. Not every interaction runs through every stage.
Linguistic persuasiveness is not factual correctness.
A fluent text reads as dependable even when its basis is open. KLARMASS keeps the two apart: it records what a claim is supported by, and does not assert that the claim is correct.
Principles
- Evidence status, not truth
- KLARMASS records what a claim is supported by. It does not assert that the claim is correct.
- AI suggestion and human confirmation stay separate
- A suggestion by the system is stored as a suggestion. A human confirmation is stored as a confirmation. One never overwrites the other.
- Provenance is preserved
- Every passage, source and decision keeps its origin and its position in the original document.
- Single-version inspection
- An inspection uses only the content and the in-document references of one document version.
- Technical failure is not an evidence state
- If a processing step fails, the failure is recorded as a failure. It never becomes a finding or an evidence status.
- Attributable decisions
- Every resolution, materiality confirmation and review disposition carries its author and timestamp.
Finding categories active today
- Source scope — the cited source does not cover the claim as made.
- Source access — the cited source cannot be reached or read.
- Claim support — the claim lacks support in the document, or the support is weaker than the claim.
Further categories are structurally prepared but deliberately not active. KLARMASS does not present an inspection as complete coverage of a document.
