Methodology
How the AI Score is audited
Each review is based on a repeatable audit of funded-stage drawdown rules, broker and liquidity evidence, public trust signals, payout friction, and buried fine print.
- Funded-stage values are the source of truth for displayed drawdown and payout data.
- Hidden rules are classified by severity and surfaced separately from standard restrictions.
- The full scoring method and update checklist live on a dedicated methodology page.
