How verification works

A review is only as trustworthy as the person behind it. We ask reviewers for private evidence that they actually own or used the product, then weight their review accordingly. Evidence (receipts, serial numbers, order emails) is stored in a private bucket, reviewed by a moderator, and never shown publicly — only the resulting badge is.

• Verified Purchase

  weight 1.00

  Reviewer uploaded a receipt, invoice, or order confirmation. Highest weight in the Trust Score.

• Verified Owner

  weight 0.85

  Reviewer proved ownership with a serial number or a photo of the product they own.

• Verified Experience

  weight 0.70

  Reviewer provided meaningful evidence of real, hands-on usage.

• Community Review

  weight 0.40

  No evidence provided. Still shown for transparency, but carries the lowest weight.

The AI summary you see on a product page is grounded only in published owner reviews — it never sets the Trust Score and never invents claims your fellow owners didn't make.
