CivicAttest and the Public Proof Problem

Field notes

The service separates internal accountability from public disclosure: the chief receives a named report, while the council and community receive a pseudonymized counterpart tied to the same verification code. Its stated detection layer consists of ten published rules rather than a machine-learning model, with findings traceable to source rows. The homepage also describes a test corpus of forty synthetic exports containing about 200,000 records, including scenarios intended to expose false accusations.
