This week we’re celebrating the first winner of our inaugural Demo Day and sharing what the Builder Circle can look forward to next!

The Short Version

  • New blog is live on why AI-generated documents need independent verification beyond surface-level polish.

  • Demo Day crowned its first winner: Joshua Mwangi’s DuelLegends showed how Proof of Quality can power fair, skill-based competition.

  • Builder Circle returns next week with Lukas Grapentine sharing product updates and hosting a live AMA.

New Blog: Why AI Documents Need Independent Verification

AI can generate polished documents in seconds, but verifying them is much harder.

The core problem

  • Citations may be incorrect

  • Quotes may be fabricated

  • Claims may mix real and false information

What the blog covers

  • Why hallucinations are hardest to detect when they look professional

  • Why mixed real and fake sources are especially dangerous

  • How Proof of Quality verifies documents using structured consensus and audit trails

Our First Real Product Data Pilot

We’ve completed our first pilot using real production data, and we’re now applying the results.

Key question

Can Proof of Quality evaluate AI work where there is no ground truth?

If you missed it, the full pilot write-up is on our blog: How Proof of Quality Caught All Nine Errors in an Automotive Training Data Trial

The best of many great submissions.

Demo Day Has Its First Champion

Our first Demo Day is complete, and it delivered exactly what we hoped: builders applying Proof of Quality in real ways.

Congratulations to Joshua Mwangi and his project DuelLegends!

DuelLegends is a skill-based arena where players stake into escrow and winners are decided using AI review with an independent consensus and Proof of Quality scoring.

Thanks to everyone who participated!

Builder Circle: Next Week’s Session

Next week’s Builder Circle session features Lukas Grapentine (Head of Solutions Engineering).
