Verification infrastructure for commerce that AI systems can inspect.
CITAQ exists because the primary reader of product information is changing. AI agents do not need more marketing copy. They need structured claims, linked evidence, expiry boundaries, and point-in-time verification records that can be checked without guessing.
The full CITAQ platform is the infrastructure layer for that world. Citation Readiness Score, or CRS, is the first standalone MVP module: a focused Shopify readiness surface that shows merchants where their live catalog is easy or difficult for AI assistants to parse, check, and cite.
The CRS dashboard is intentionally narrower than the CITAQ platform. CRS diagnoses catalog readiness. The platform roadmap adds governed claim submission, evidence vaulting, verification credentials, trust surfaces, and agent-readable access.
Why CRS Comes First
Before a claim can be verified, the product has to be machine-readable
We are starting with CRS because catalog readiness is the foundational layer. Before a product claim can be submitted, linked to evidence, and verified, the product itself has to be consistently identifiable, retrievable, and structurally understandable by machine systems. CRS identifies those gaps first.
CRS diagnoses whether product information is machine-ready. The broader CITAQ platform is being built to connect product claims to inspectable evidence and verification records.
What We Are Building
A system of record for product claims and evidence
Product claims become explicit records instead of loose prose. Materials, performance attributes, compliance statements, and availability data can be evaluated as discrete assertions.
Claims link to proof objects such as lab reports, certificates, manufacturing records, structured product data, and issuer attestations.
CITAQ verification is point-in-time. It records what evidence supported a claim at a specific moment and carries disclaimers about what that status does not mean.
System Constraints
What CITAQ deliberately does not do
CITAQ does not replace ISO, FDA, CE, lab, or regulatory approval. It verifies evidence linkage and preserves the source boundary.
CITAQ does not rank merchants or tell AI systems what to prefer. It makes verification status inspectable.
Merchants submit claims. CITAQ structures, checks, and records supporting evidence.
CRS is the first MVP module for Shopify catalog readiness. The main product is the broader verification infrastructure.
Public Routes
Read the system from the outside in
The infrastructure model for claims, evidence, credentials, and agent-readable surfaces.
The shift from human-readable marketing to evidence that AI agents can verify.
The standalone Shopify module available before the full CITAQ platform is live.
Join the waitlist for claim verification, evidence vaulting, public trust pages, and machine-readable verification access.
Next Step
Improve a Shopify catalog now or evaluate verification infrastructure
Use CRS to identify the product-data gaps that must be resolved before claims can be linked to evidence and verified. Join platform early access when claim verification, evidence vaulting, public trust pages, or machine access become the priority.
