SWOT Evidence and Claims
Evidence is the traceable basis for the model. Claims are concise statements derived from evidence, user input, or AI generation.
Source records
Use sources to describe where information came from:
- PDF, DOCX, web page, dataset, manual note, expert input, or other source type
- title, authors, publication date, upload date, notes, and source quality
Evidence records
Use evidence records for specific support:
- quote or summary
- page or section
- support type: supports, contradicts, contextual, or weak support
- quality and relevance
- chunk or embedding identifiers when evidence came from retrieval
Claims
A claim is an evidence-backed statement that may become a SWOT item. Claims should be short, specific, and reviewable.
Good claim:
- "Procurement delays have increased average implementation time for regional projects."
Weak claim:
- "Procurement is a problem."
Review rule
If an AI-generated claim or item is edited by a user, the citation should be reviewed again. The model marks edited AI content as needing evidence review when relevant fields such as claim, description, rationale, or action statement are changed.
