Protected Methodology

Evalio's confidential evaluation method — scoring, weights, thresholds, formulas, survey mechanics, and derivation logic — which is never exposed to users.

Protected methodology is the internal logic that turns role evidence into a governed output. It includes the scoring approach, factor weighting, level thresholds, formulas, mapping mechanics, contradiction detection, evidence parsing, and AI mechanics — none of which Evalio exposes.

What Evalio makes reviewable is the output and its review context: what the output represents, what evidence supports it, and what boundaries apply. Reviewability of the output does not require, and does not grant, access to the internal method.

Protection increases integrity. Governance boundaries prevent misinterpretation and misuse of the method — the protection is a design feature, not an absence of transparency about outputs.

Evalio-specific meaning

The confidential internal logic that turns evidence into an output — never exposed to users.

Not to be confused with

The reviewable output and its review context, which are not the method.

Output boundary and interpretation notices

Usage note

Do not infer that because an output is reviewable, its internal logic is disclosed. It is not. Framework-equivalence views are bounded interpretation aids, not a window into the method.

Public-safe boundary

Scoring, weights, thresholds, formulas, and derivation logic are protected; reviewability does not grant access to them.
