Keeping evidence-linked answers fit for reuse
An answer is easier to reuse when a colleague can find what supports it without repeating the original research.
Evidence-linked claims
General meaning: A statement includes explicit references to the information supporting it.
Why it matters
An answer is easier to review and reuse when a colleague can find what supports it without repeating the original research.
With Kanonik
Saved claims connect to supporting records and versions. When your team prepares an answer, the basis can travel with the statement rather than remain in someone's memory or chat history.
What to consider
A link is not proof that an artifact is authentic or supports the claim. Someone still needs to judge the source, scope and relevance. A reference or hash that your AI supplies is not independently collected evidence.

Evidence freshness
General meaning: Whether evidence is recent enough and still applicable to the decision being made.
Why it matters
An answer is not reused simply because it was approved once. A policy, vendor review or other supporting record may no longer be current enough for today's decision.
With Kanonik
Claim-staleness checks help identify recorded support that needs attention. Your team can review the affected answer rather than rely only on a calendar reminder to reconsider everything.
What to consider
Kanonik can tell that a stored record is getting old. It does not monitor your source systems, so a change there that nobody records is not detected.
Evidence origin
General meaning: Information about where data originated and how it was handled or transformed.
Why it matters
A reviewer can see where a statement came from and how it reached the accepted record. That makes questions easier to investigate when people or suppliers change.
With Kanonik
Kanonik records where a piece of evidence came from, when it arrived and whether it has changed since, together with the proposals, checks and approvals that shaped the accepted record. That record does not show that the underlying fact is correct: a self-report can be wrong, and an approved record can go stale.
What to consider
The retained history does not include every intermediate draft or establish that the original information was correct.
