Score your deck
the way QUAD does
This isn't a list of claims to check — you already have one of those. This is the actual five-criteria citation standard and three-position adversarial test QUAD runs on every claim, turned into a scoring sheet you can apply to your own deck before anyone else sees it.
Already have the Series A Claim-Verification Checklist? That one lists which claims investors stress-test. This one scores how well-evidenced each claim already is, lens by lens — use both together.

The same standard applied to every Pre-Launch Verification deck
What sends a claim from "cited" to "flagged"
Three questions the self-audit forces you to answer
Each maps directly to one of the five citation criteria in the QUAD standard — the same standard a named human applies to every Pre-Launch Verification claim.
"What's the methodology behind this number?"
A citable figure and a headline figure look identical until someone asks this. If you can't name how it was derived, it scores zero on Lens 3 — regardless of how accurate it might actually be.
"What sample size is this based on?"
An NPS of 72 from 12 self-selected users and an NPS of 72 from 200 randomly sampled ones are different claims wearing the same number. The self-audit forces you to write n= next to every metric.
"Does this survive the regulatory objection, not just the obvious one?"
Most founders pre-empt the one objection they expect. The QUAD Challenge phase runs three — investor, regulatory, and factual alternative — and a claim has to clear all three, not just the first.
The self-audit walks through all five criteria plus the three-position adversarial test, lens by lens.

Self-scoring is where QUAD starts
The self-audit tells you where your own deck likely falls short. A Pre-Launch Verification Pulse runs the actual process — retrieval, three-position challenge, and a named human's verdict — against your real claims, free, in about an hour.
