How readiness score and confidence are calculated
Readiness asks whether the documented product fits high-value play. Confidence asks how complete, current and reproducible the evidence is. A high score with low confidence is not treated as a proven result.
Indicator one
The readiness score measures documented operating quality.
The 100-point score uses the same ten rows on the homepage and in every dossier: withdrawal capacity, deposit flexibility, bet and win transparency, processing, crypto rails, VIP access, KYC predictability, wagering friction and evidence auditability.
Evidence auditability contributes a limited eight points because a product claim that cannot be reconstructed is less useful. The separate confidence grade performs the full 100-point evidence calculation; it is not added to readiness a second time. Unknown values never receive the same credit as explicit favourable limits.
| Component | Maximum |
|---|---|
| Withdrawal capacity | 20 |
| Deposit flexibility | 8 |
| Bet-limit transparency | 12 |
| Maximum-win rules | 10 |
| Processing transparency | 10 |
| Crypto rail quality | 8 |
| VIP limit access | 8 |
| KYC / EDD predictability | 10 |
| Wagering friction | 6 |
| Evidence auditability | 8 |
Indicator two
Confidence is calculated from five evidence components.
The calculation awards up to 20 points each for primary-source coverage, independent corroboration, visual or transactional evidence, freshness and version certainty, and consistency across sources. The result is capped by the manually reviewed base grade; automation can lower confidence but cannot quietly promote it.
Real captures are distinguished from site-generated document maps. A current regulator record can corroborate identity but cannot prove withdrawal execution.
| Confidence component | Implemented formula |
|---|---|
| Primary-source coverage | min(20, current relevant primary sources ÷ max(3, all relevant primary sources) × 20) |
| Independent corroboration | min(20, 7 × current independent sources + 2 × restricted independent sources with a preserved capture) |
| Visual / transactional evidence | min(20, 3.2 × real non-SVG captures) |
| Freshness and version certainty | 20 × weighted mean of source age factor × retrieval-status factor |
| Cross-source consistency | max(0, 20 − 4 × mismatches − 2 × unavailable − 1 × transient − 4 × unresolved conflicts) |
Exact implementation
Source importance, age and access are weighted explicitly.
The freshness component weights a withdrawal ceiling or cashier source at 5; rolling-period and KYC, EDD or source-of-funds sources at 3; processing, review, rail, fee, maximum-bet, maximum-win, operator and registry sources at 2; and other material sources at 1. The result is divided by the total applicable source weight, so adding a low-value citation cannot disguise an expired critical rule.
Retrieval status multiplies the age factor: currently retrieved = 1.00; restricted with a preserved capture = 0.45; transient error with a known prior successful retrieval = 0.30; and not rechecked with a known prior retrieval = 0.20. A restricted source without a preserved capture, a mismatch, an unavailable source or a source never successfully retrieved receives zero freshness credit.
| Evidence class | Age factors: 1.00 / 0.75 / 0.50 / 0.25 / 0 |
|---|---|
| Cashier, limit, fee, rail and VIP | ≤30 / ≤60 / ≤90 / ≤180 / >180 days |
| Terms, KYC, AML, policy and wagering | ≤90 / ≤180 / ≤365 / ≤730 / >730 days |
| Registry, regulator and other records | ≤180 / ≤365 / ≤730 / ≤1,095 / >1,095 days |
Caps and reproducibility
The raw total cannot outrun the reviewed evidence boundary.
The five components are added and rounded to the nearest whole point. Final confidence equals the lower of that computed total and the floor assigned to the manually reviewed base grade: A 92, A− 87, B+ 82, B 77, B− 72, C+ 67, C 62, C− 57, D+ 52, D 47, D− 42, E+ 37, E 32, E− 27 and F 0.
One expired critical source caps the result at B− (72). Two or more cap it at C+ (67). No current primary source plus no real capture caps it at C− (57). Any content mismatch caps it at C+ (67). These caps are applied after the base-grade ceiling.
Grade bands
A–F translates evidence quality, not casino safety.
A and A− indicate strong, current and reproducible evidence across the material fields. B grades remain useful but contain meaningful gaps. C grades require more caution and rechecking. D, E and F indicate that major conclusions cannot be reconstructed with dependable current evidence.
A low confidence grade does not prove misconduct. It says the publication cannot support a stronger documentary claim.
| Grade | Minimum score |
|---|---|
| A | 92 |
| A− | 87 |
| B+ | 82 |
| B | 77 |
| B− | 72 |
| C+ | 67 |
| C | 62 |
| C− | 57 |
| D+ | 52 |
| D | 47 |
| D− | 42 |
| E+ | 37 |
| E | 32 |
| E− | 27 |
| F | 0 |
Automatic ageing
Volatile evidence loses confidence faster.
Cashier, limit, fee, rail and VIP evidence receives full freshness credit for 30 days and expires for confidence purposes after 180 days. Terms, KYC and AML documents use a 90-day full-credit window and a 730-day expiry. Registry and independent records use longer windows unless a stated expiry makes them urgent.
An expired critical claim caps confidence. Two expired critical claims cap it further. A current HTTP response with missing expected content triggers manual review and a C+ maximum until resolved.
Reading a result
Use score, confidence and scenario together.
A 75/100 casino with confidence A− and a Conditional $100,000 result has a relatively strong evidence file but still contains a scenario-specific constraint. A 75/100 casino with confidence C cannot be treated the same way because the apparently favourable inputs may be stale, restricted or incomplete.
The Finder therefore returns a suitability state for the selected amount and conditions, while the dossier explains both the product score and documentary confidence.
