Deployed Works Constitution

The matching service is the single source of truth for fit, ordering, shortlist readiness and deployment recommendation.

No internal or external commercial factor can influence it.

Not for money. Not for gain. Not for partnership advantage. Not for platform convenience.

Matching must be explainable, reproducible and governed.

For the same eligible inputs, ruleset and version, the platform should be able to reproduce why a Capability Passport appeared, what fit signals were used and why a buyer saw one result before another.

Deterministic does not mean the system never changes. It means changes to matching inputs, rules or weighting must be intentional, reviewable and versioned.

• buyer Outcome and constraints
• Capability Passport evidence
• verified or reviewable capability claims
• availability and access fit
• language, location and timezone fit
• integration fit
• compliance and data-sensitivity fit
• trust signals and trust boundaries
• deployment suitability
• stated commercial fit against buyer constraints

Pricing may be used only to test commercial fit against buyer constraints. It must not create rank advantage.

• paid placement
• sponsorship
• backlinks
• partner tier
• vendor funding
• referral commission
• revenue share
• newsletter spend
• blog spend
• investor interest
• sales pressure
• commercial relationship value
• manual promotion for commercial gain

Deployed Works may sell clearly separated commercial media or partnership products, such as paid newsletter placements, sponsored or paid editorial slots, clearly labelled partner education and commercial reporting where privacy and attribution rules allow it.

Those commercial products must remain separate from matching, Discovery ordering, Passport confidence, shortlist readiness and deployment recommendation.

If a company offered money to be placed front and centre in Discovery, that would breach this Constitution.

A Capability Passport is a governed evidence object, not an advert.

Vendor, provider or partner-entered claims are assertions. They are not treated as truth simply because they were submitted by the capability owner.

Stripe Identity or account verification may support identity trust. It must never be treated as proof of capability, skill, suitability or performance.

Buyer feedback, search impressions, shortlists and dismissals are not automatic proof of capability. Learning may inform governed review, platform intelligence and future evidence candidates.

Deployment Attribution records commercial events and value created by the platform. It does not influence matching.
