TrustScore, evidence, and AI

What are TrustScore reason codes?

TrustScore and AI explanations summarize evidence with source levels and reason codes so users can inspect why a result appears.

This article explains what are trustscore reason codes in the Hotshot College workflow. Use the result as one part of a documented decision and confirm any time-sensitive fact with the named source.

What to do

  1. Read the reason codes before reading the number alone.
  2. Open the supporting evidence and source timestamp.
  3. Treat disputed or unverified user content according to its label.
  4. Report a source mismatch or unsupported explanation instead of assuming it is correct.

What the result means

A score is a product output, not a government rating, insurance opinion, credit score, legal conclusion, or guarantee of future conduct.

Limits and next step

AI can misunderstand a question or summarize evidence incorrectly. Confirm important answers against the displayed source records.
