Evidence and claims methodology
This framework prevents a benchmark, demo, estimate, or hypothetical scenario from being mistaken for evidence of a client outcome.
1. Verified company fact
Supported by a company record or a live, inspectable product property.
2. Externally sourced evidence
Attributed to a named primary or authoritative source with enough context to verify it.
3. Directional planning range
An estimate for budgeting or pilot design that depends on baseline, integration, usage, adoption, and operating constraints.
4. Demonstrated capability
A function shown in a controlled demonstration. It proves the demo worked, not that it will achieve every business outcome.
5. Illustrative scenario
A hypothetical or composite workflow used to explain implementation and measurement. It is not a customer result.
How an outcome should be measured
- Define the workflow, owner, population, time window, and exclusions.
- Record a pre-pilot baseline using the same metric definition used after launch.
- Separate implementation, usage, human review, exceptions, and maintenance costs.
- Run a contained pilot and document failures as well as successful cases.
- Scale only when measured results and operational risk justify it.
Current case-study limitation
KheyaMind currently has no named, independently verifiable client use cases available for publication. Existing scenario material is educational and illustrative. Future evidence should include the client or verifier, baseline, measurement window, methodology, result, and limitations.
