Candela — a lit candle standing on a graded rule

Anyone may publish. Everything is checked. The checking is kind.

Every publication on Candela carries a visible, machine-verified property sheet — every citation resolved, every number checked, evidence cited to the line. No verdicts. No gates. Facts, never intent.

The free floor

A baseline on every publication

The house verifier runs on every artifact at no cost: references resolved, numbers recomputed, claims traced to sources. Its findings are public, graded, and cite their evidence to the line.

The marketplace

Credibility, competed for

Verification tools and review processes register against a public contract and are themselves scored against outcomes. The platform sells no verdicts — it keeps the standards, the scores, and the integrity of resolutions.

The evidence ladder

Identity without gatekeeping

No credential wall. Claims of authorship and provenance are graded by the strength of their evidence — from asserted to proven — and the grade is always displayed. Accountable outsiders publish on equal floor.
