Record-Check plus forensic access-trail in one primitive. Ask whether a record exists and get the signed citation — or the structurally honest “no record found.” Audit who has read what record, when, and from where, with the trail signed at every step.
A sealed binary that does two things every regulated business needs: Record-Check (ask whether a record exists and receive a signed citation back, or an honest “no record found” when it does not), and forensic access-trail (every read of every record is signed and queryable, so when audit asks who saw what, you can answer with the chain). Ask more, store more, retrieve more quickly — without ever making a truth claim the record itself cannot back. Equally applicable to business documents, regulated clinical records, scientific instrument output, and quantum-experiment results.
Six outcomes Verus delivers from day one. Record-Check on one half, access-trail on the other — both signed, both cited.
“Does the record show this?” The answer is a signed citation pointing back at the chain entry, or an honest “no record found.” Never a truth claim Verus invents.
When the record does not contain what you asked, the response is “no record found” — not “false,” not “uncertain,” not a hedged paragraph. Ask more freely when the worst-case answer is a structurally honest empty.
Every read of every record is recorded with the Mark identity that read it, the time, the query, and the network origin. The trail is itself a signed chain.
When audit asks “who saw this record between January and March,” the answer comes back as a signed result set — retrieve more quickly than a log-trawl ever could.
Verus runs as a Chronicle add-on at $99/yr, or as a standalone primitive at $199/yr. Either way the access-trail is the same chain Chronicle stores.
Verus deals in records only. It is either in the record or it is not. No verdicts. No commentary. No truth claims your defamation, source-licensing, or partisan-capture risk has to absorb.
Two queries side-by-side. One Record-Check that finds a cited record; one that honestly returns nothing. Below them, a forensic access-trail covering the same record window.
Verus returns the cited entry. It does not say “HIPAA was satisfied.” The record entry exists and is signed; the legal interpretation is yours.
Empty is the honest answer. No claim that the opt-in was refused, only that no record was signed. The legal next step is to ask the patient, not to assume.
Plain-language queries against the signed Chronicle library. Returns either a cited entry with chain hash or an honest “no record found.”
Every read of every record signed with the reading Mark identity, time, query, and origin. Itself a chain, queryable like any other.
Output is always a citation or a structured empty. Never a truth claim, never a verdict, never a hedged narrative paragraph.
Ask “who read this record between dates,” “what records did this Mark identity read,” “what queries failed to find a record.” All answered against the signed trail.
Verus runs against an existing Chronicle install at the $99/yr tier; the access-trail piggybacks on the chain Chronicle already maintains.
Verus runs as a standalone Record-Check primitive at $199/yr for customers without Chronicle — its own signed library, its own access-trail, its own chain.
Three customer types where Verus replaces “trust me, the record says…” with a signed citation, and replaces “we’ll trawl the logs” with a signed access-trail.
Patient asks for the access trail on their own record — you answer with the signed list. Auditor asks what was disclosed and when — you answer with a Record-Check citation.
Every assertion in the report cites a record. Every review of every working paper is signed. The reviewer-of-reviewer chain is queryable.
Record-Check answers what the document says. The chain protects the source. The records-only doctrine keeps the verdict where it belongs — with the reader.
Hybrid pricing reflects how customers actually adopt Verus — alongside an existing Chronicle install, or as a standalone primitive.
For customers already running Chronicle. Verus query surface + forensic access-trail run against the chain Chronicle maintains. Cheap on purpose — this is the path most customers should take.
For customers who want Record-Check + access-trail without committing to Chronicle. Verus maintains its own signed library and chain. Fully self-contained.
Verus answers what the record contains. It does not adjudicate. It never returns “true,” “verified,” “debunked.” That is the structural defamation, source-licensing, and partisan-capture firewall.
“No record found” means no signed entry exists for the query. It does not mean false, refused, or denied. The legal next step is yours.
License terms exclude majority-owned subsidiaries of top-tier hyperscale cloud providers. Audit trails and record citations stay out of closed cloud platforms.
You install it; the chain of custody is on the binary. No source readable.
