Evidence Appendix
The back of a Deal Package: every finding traced to the metric, the dated pull, the Claim Ledger row, or the Company Call answer that supports it. It is why a Zoe finding can be checked rather than believed.
Why it matters
A finding you cannot trace is an opinion. The Evidence Appendix is what lets a skeptical partner, the company's counsel, or a co-investor follow any statement in the Deal Package back to the pull, the ledger row, or the transcript line it rests on, with the date attached.
How Zoe reads it
Every metric behind every dimension is listed with its source and the date it was pulled. Claim Ledger rows carry their status and what settled them. Company Call answers carry their score. The appendix is part of the Deal Package and is what Ask Zoe points to when it answers.
