Purpose and scope

Provenance Disclosure is a single-purpose system for creating a written, attested disclosure about AI involvement and human participation in a defined subject.

The disclosure records declared responsibility, process, and limits at a specific point in time. It is designed to be a stable, human-readable record that can accompany submissions, publications, or disputes.

This system is scoped to declaration and documentation. It does not attempt to verify, certify, or judge the truth of statements.

What the system is for

The service exists to help a person or organization produce a formal record of how a work was created and who approved the final result. It is strongest where a structured declaration is more useful than an informal note.

What the system is not for

The service is not a detection system, a copyright evaluator, a compliance engine, or a legal review tool. It records declared information in stable form.

Why scope matters

The document becomes more credible when its role is clear. The service is designed to produce a careful record, not to imply that every important question has been independently resolved.
