Evidence should be inspectable before it becomes action.

Denver Trades combines source records, directory profiles, calculated scores, and generated drafts. This page explains how to read those layers, where coverage can be incomplete, and what still requires human judgment.

Methodology summary last updated 3 August 2026.

Universal evidence contract

Four questions on every decision-grade record

What is the source?

Customs, directory, enrichment, inference, sample data, or not stated.

What does it cover?

The geography and record type represented, without implying global coverage.

How fresh is it?

The latest recorded event or source date, or an explicit absence of dated evidence.

What does confidence mean?

Relevance or model confidence is context, not proof that the underlying source is correct.

Label glossary

Read the label before the number

Customs / shipment evidence

A supported customs or shipment source is recorded. Geography and freshness still depend on that source.

Directory / enrichment data

A business listing or enrichment source supports the company profile, but trade activity is not established by that label.

Inferred or generated

An AI model produced or interpreted the field. Treat it as a draft or hypothesis and verify it before use.

Sample / demonstration data

The record exists to demonstrate the interface. It is not evidence about a real company or market event.

Scoring

Prioritization, not a guarantee

Buyer-fit scores rank the fields available on a profile, such as product match, route, shipment recency, and market fit. Missing evidence should not quietly become a positive signal. A high score does not prove creditworthiness, intent, or future purchasing behavior.

Coverage

Coverage follows the source

Customs-backed records currently describe the geography and transport modes made available by their named source; they are not a complete view of world trade. Directory profiles can help identify a business while providing no shipment proof. Unknown and unavailable fields remain visibly unknown.

Keep a person at the decision point

Outreach, quote language, extracted RFQ fields, and document findings are working drafts. Verify the recipient, commercial terms, source record, and required trade documents before sending or relying on them.

Security and privacy

Workspace access is authenticated

Product routes use authenticated organization context to scope workspace data. Production operators should still validate database policies, secret management, retention rules, and internal document-handling policy for their deployment. Avoid uploading highly sensitive material unless your organization has approved its use.

Important limitations

Advisory, not legal or compliance approval

Document comparison can flag differences; it cannot declare a shipment legally compliant. Market data can be delayed, incomplete, or unavailable. Confirm critical terms with the relevant bank, carrier, broker, counsel, or source system.
