Signal
An individual trust indicator derived from verified evidence. Each of the 8 trust signals has a status (verified, unverified, or pending) and a verification timestamp. Signals combine to produce the TRI score.
What to do
A signal marked 'Not yet checked' is waiting on its evidence. Provide it and the signal moves to verified at the next verification run.
Mediary's core vocabulary includes 10 defined terms. The Trust Readiness Index (TRI) is the central metric — a score from 0 to 100 derived from 8 independently verified trust signals. Each signal follows the Evidence → Verification → Signal → TRI chain. See how these concepts apply in the business context or the developer integration guide.
