Services reality
The deliverable is the receipt.
In professional services, the artifact you hand over becomes evidence: audits, disputes, expert reports, procurement packs. IF.Trace makes the handoff verifiable without making you a credential broker.
Third‑party pressure
- Clients want proof; opposing counsel wants provenance.
- Auditors need artifacts they can verify without your internal access.
- Engagements outlive inboxes; the evidence must remain stable.
What IF.Trace provides
Chain‑of‑custody
Trace receipt binds source ↔ output, plus IDs and timestamps.
Portable proofs
Bundles can be archived with the case file and re‑verified later.
Clarity
What was verified is shown; interpretation is labeled as interpretation.
Operational trap to avoid
Don’t turn verification into credential distribution.
Bad
“Log in to our system and we’ll show you.”
Good
“Here is the artifact, here is the receipt, verify without us.”
