Published research files for analysts, journalists and builders. Link to the evidence behind a claim, preserve its date and carry its limitations into your work.
This directory covers the latest published Decision Brief snapshots, the Markets dataset, claim annotations, dated source follow-ups, comparison claim mappings and update mappings linked here. The underlying versioned files are fixed snapshots. Current research pages may evolve; cite the exact-version source when reproducibility matters.
Publicly accessible does not mean continuously verified.
Annotation and comparison-mapping dates describe publication; the update registry labels its latest linked publication separately. These dates do not refresh the original research. Review dates describe DN’s source review, not a provider release date. These files contain documentation research, not live prices, trading availability, independent audits or performance results. A newer publication does not automatically establish better or safer conditions.
The download is a JSON directory of links, versions, scope and citations. Follow each evidence JSON link to obtain the underlying file. No API key or account is needed to open these public snapshots.
