HOW REVIEW WORKS
What happens to a case.
Step by step.
Every case on Audrith follows a reviewed, controlled process. Nothing is published automatically. Nothing disappears.
THE 4 STAGES
01
Submission
You submit a case via /ask. We receive the basic context — company, decision type, date, and a short summary. Your email is kept private.
02
Review
Audrith reviews the submission before it becomes public. We check for completeness and accuracy. No case is published without review.
03
Publication & notification
Once approved, the case becomes a public record. You receive your case link. The company receives a secure notification with a response link.
04
Resolution
The company responds with proof, context, or documentation — or the case remains public as Transparency Pending. Either way, the record stays.
WHAT BECOMES PUBLIC
What is published?
The company name, decision type, date, and a short summary of the request. The Record ID. The case timeline. Any receipt or response provided by the company.
What stays private?
Your full name, your email address, and any personal details you have not explicitly included in the summary.
Can a case be removed?
Cases reviewed and published in good faith are not removed. If a case was submitted in error or contains inaccurate information, contact us at hello@audrith.com.
How long does a case stay public?
Indefinitely. The record is permanent. That is the point.
HOW COMPANIES CAN RESPOND
How does the company know?
They receive a formal notification email with a unique, secure response link. The link expires in 30 days and can only be used once.
What can a company submit?
A statement, an explanation of the decision process, or formal proof documentation — a receipt, a policy document, an audit log. Any of these closes the case positively.
What if the company doesn't respond?
After a period without response, the case status changes to Transparency Pending. The case remains public. No action is hidden.
Does responding mean admitting fault?
No. Responding demonstrates transparency. Companies that respond — even to provide context without proof — are treated as engaging in good faith.
THE RECORD
What is the hash chain?
Every event in a case — submission, review, publication, response — is logged with a cryptographic hash. This makes the record tamper-evident. Anyone can verify the chain hasn't been altered.
Can I verify a case independently?
Yes. Use the /verification page with any Record ID to check the current status, timeline, and receipt status of any public case.
Who can see a case?
Anyone. Public cases are visible without login. That is what makes them useful for accountability.
