The tick says exactly what was checked
A vague “trusted” badge helps nobody. Every SourceTick label names the check behind it, so people and AI can weigh each claim on its own.
- Identity checked
- The organisation was confirmed against a named official source.
- Credential checked
- A licence or registration was checked on a stated date.
- Owner confirmed
- An authorised person from the business approved the information.
- Expert attested
- Written or reviewed by a registered professional whose credential was checked.
- Independently checked
- Evidence or a cited source supports this specific claim.
- Expired or withdrawn
- The information is no longer current, and the label says so.
The tick is earned, never sold, and it never buys a higher position in an AI answer. It helps a genuine business get understood and chosen once it is suggested.
