A brief is only useful if you can tell what is known from what is inferred. That is why every BlackPing brief separates three things.
1. Source evidence
What the original report actually says, with its date and a link. When we save a brief we also keep a snapshot of the source as it stood, so the brief can always be checked against what it was based on.
2. Interpretation
What the source could mean for you — drafted with AI help and labelled as analysis, not fact.
3. Review status
Whether the author has reviewed it, and separately whether an accredited analyst has verified it. Only verified, published briefs appear on the public site; drafts stay private to their owner.
