Claveta

How every number is verified

Every number on Claveta is a real count of distinct verified businesses — rounded down, never inflated, and shown only once it clears a published reliability floor. Below the heart of Claveta is one promise: the score is never for sale.

Here is exactly how each verification tier is earned, beside its live count.

How to reproduce any of these

We don’t ask you to trust us — every verified fact on our public changelog (and on each order’s receipt) names the exact free, public check we ran and its result, so a skeptic can re-run the same check and get the same answer:

  • EU VAT — paste the shown VAT id into the official EU VIES checker.
  • Domain age — look the domain up on free public RDAP (rdap.org/domain/<domain>); the registration date gives the age.
  • Live HTTPS cert — open the site over HTTPS and read the certificate’s validity (the notAfter date we show).
  • Mail-receiving domain — query DNS-over-HTTPS (dns.google/resolve?type=MX&name=<domain>) for an MX record.

Every check is free, key-free, and run against the same public source we used. To protect the listed businesses we mask names and never publish a contact (email / phone / website / address) — the result itself is the proof.

Veridio score

14 / 100
read-only composite — never for sale

Transparent 0-100 composite of the live verified-tier counts, normalized by businesses_indexed. For each tier, term = min(distinct_verified_in_tier / businesses_indexed, 1.0); score = round(100 * (0.50*T3 + 0.30*T2 + 0.20*T1)), weights T3>T2>T1, summing to 1.0. Read-only and DERIVED from verified counts only; with 0 businesses indexed the score is 0. NEVER sold or alterable for money (no pricing/billing/treasury module may import it) — the score is never for sale.

Living index — freshness

100%
of facts re-verified in the last 30 days

Every verified fact has a half-life: it only counts while it is fresh (within 30 days), and a daily re-verification re-runs the original check so a live source stays counted and a dead source ages to zero. Median fact age: 0 days. (Honest counts: share floored, age rounded down.)

Public-source provenance

Verified on every order
count shown once it clears the published reliability floor

Every lead from public Google Maps listings; freshness = scrape timestamp

EU VAT verified (VIES)

Verified on every order
count shown once it clears the published reliability floor

EU VAT ids checked live against official VIES; only confirmed-valid counted

Established domain age

Verified on every order
count shown once it clears the published reliability floor

Domain age via public RDAP; older domains flagged established

Public Google Maps presence

700+
verified businesses

Public Google Maps presence with a real review count

Live HTTPS website

Verified on every order
count shown once it clears the published reliability floor

Live HTTPS cert valid now — independent of domain age

Deliverable email verified

Verified on every order
count shown once it clears the published reliability floor

Delivered emails checked via ZeroBounce; only status=valid counted; we never claim every row is verified

Mail-receiving domain (MX present)

Verified on every order
count shown once it clears the published reliability floor

Domain publishes an MX record (checked live via public DNS-over-HTTPS); proves the domain can RECEIVE mail — NOT that any address is deliverable

Dialable phone format

Verified on every order
count shown once it clears the published reliability floor

Phone parses to a valid dialable E.164/national FORMAT (offline check); attests the FORMAT only — NOT that the line is answered or connected

Veridio score (composite)

Verified on every order
count shown once it clears the published reliability floor

Transparent 0-100 composite of the live verified-tier counts, normalized by businesses_indexed. For each tier, term = min(distinct_verified_in_tier / businesses_indexed, 1.0); score = round(100 * (0.50*T3 + 0.30*T2 + 0.20*T1)), weights T3>T2>T1, summing to 1.0. Read-only and DERIVED from verified counts only; with 0 businesses indexed the score is 0. NEVER sold or alterable for money (no pricing/billing/treasury module may import it) — the score is never for sale.

Refunds honored within the published window

Every refund honored within our published window — replacement-first, then refund.
figure shown once orders clear the published floor

Refund policy is replacement-first then refund within the published 14-day window; every refund issued is logged as a real event (COUNT db.guarantee_stats: 0 refunds, 4 orders fulfilled).

Orders delivered under 60 minutes

Orders are scraped and delivered the moment payment clears — typically within the hour.
figure shown once orders clear the published floor

Median of (delivery timestamp − order timestamp) over fulfilled orders, measured from real logged events (db.sla_stats); we report the share completed in under 60 minutes, floored — never rounded up (median ≈ 0 min over 0 measured deliveries).

What we verify — and what we DON’T

The strongest trust signal is naming our own boundaries. Each live check below attests exactly one thing — and we state, in the same breath, what it does not prove. We would rather under-claim than mislead.

  • Public-source provenance — Reflects the public listing AT SCRAPE TIME — a business can close, move, or change details after we captured it; the freshness timestamp is how old the fact is.
  • EU VAT verified (VIES) — Confirms the VAT id is registered & valid in VIES RIGHT NOW — it does NOT prove the business is trading, solvent, or that the entity behind it is who it claims to be.
  • Established domain age — Measures how long the DOMAIN has been registered — an old domain does NOT prove the business is old, reputable, or still operating; it only ages the registration.
  • Public Google Maps presence — Confirms a public Google Maps listing with a real review count exists — it does NOT judge the reviews, rank quality, or prove the listing is currently accurate.
  • Live HTTPS website — Confirms a valid HTTPS certificate is live RIGHT NOW — it does NOT prove the site’s CONTENT is correct, the business is legitimate, or the cert won’t lapse tomorrow.
  • Deliverable email verified — Counts only emails ZeroBounce returns as status=valid — we NEVER claim every row has a verified email, and a valid mailbox does NOT guarantee a human reads or replies to it.
  • Mail-receiving domain (MX present) — Confirms the domain publishes an MX record, i.e. it CAN RECEIVE mail — it does NOT prove any specific address exists or that a message to it is deliverable.
  • Dialable phone format — Confirms the number parses to a valid dialable E.164/national FORMAT (offline) — it does NOT prove the line is answered, connected, or owned by the business.

Independence — the score is never for sale

Our heart principle is independence: the Veridio score has no write-path from money. This is not a promise — it is enforced in code by a grep-assert that fails the build if any pricing, billing, or treasury module so much as imports the score. We re-run that exact assert on every request and show you the live result:

PASS: no money module references the score.

We just re-ran the check, live, against this exact deploy: pricing.py, billing.py and treasury.py import NEITHER the score symbol nor its getter/setter. The Veridio score has no write-path from money.
