THREE VERDICTS ON FRAMEWORK FIT

Gemstone.
Geode.
Sediment.

Every company a strategy evaluates lands in one of three tiers — a verdict on fit to a published framework, never an action to take. The evidence behind each verdict is cited to the filing.

PRICING ANNOUNCED AT LAUNCH

GEMSTONE

Strong match — the filings support the framework's criteria.

GEODE

Partial match — some criteria hold; others can't be verified from the filings.

SEDIMENT

No match — criteria not met. Kept as a turned-over stone for further research.

FIVE LENSES · THIRTEEN STRATEGIES

Published frameworks, applied identically

Each strategy is a fixed screen plus a fixed evaluation prompt, in the tradition of published value- and growth-investing research. Every subscriber who runs a strategy gets output from the identical criteria.

01 · VALUE

Cheapness with a margin of safety

From statistical net-nets to durable-moat franchises priced below their worth.

HOW IT WORKS

Two stages, from universe to verdict

STAGE 1 · SCREEN

Filter the universe

Each strategy's fixed quantitative filters run against the SEC EDGAR operating universe. Near-miss rationales are kept, so you can see why a company dropped out.

STAGE 2 · EVALUATE

Read the filings

Survivors go to the strategy's AI evaluator, which reads targeted EDGAR sections and returns a Gemstone / Geode / Sediment verdict — every claim cited to its filing section.

DRILL IN

Check the evidence

Every verdict opens to scored dimensions, trap signals with their sources, and what couldn't be verified — flagged as unknowns, not papered over.

ANATOMY OF A VERDICT

Every claim carries its source

A verdict is not a number — it's a structured read of the filings. Every one carries the same four parts:

Assessment

A plain-English read of what the filings show, tied to the methodology's scoring rubric.

Scored dimensions

Verification scores per dimension — the gates that decide where the verdict lands.

Trap signals, cited

Every red flag names its source — form, section, date — so you can read it yourself.

Unknowns, kept honest

What the filings don't disclose is flagged as insufficient data — never filled in from memory.
