A report summarizes the verification outcome for a completed job. It includes a score, per-claim results, identity resolution, and evidence sources.

​
Score overview

Scores range from 1 to 5 (integer). Peepal weights each claim category as follows:
  • Identity: 0.3
  • Employment: 0.4
  • Education: 0.2
  • Business: 0.1
Scores are adjusted by claim confidence (1-5), claim status, and weights.

​
Identity resolution

Identity resolution determines whether the person seed matches available public profiles.
  • status: matched, ambiguous, no_match
  • confidence: 1-5 confidence for the legacy status
  • identity_status (optional): confirmed, high_confidence, likely, possible, no_match
  • identity_confidence (optional): 1-5 confidence for identity status
  • profiles (optional): discovered profiles with type and primary flag
