TRAILSTATE 2.0 · PAGE RANK FOR PROVENANCE

Trailstate 2.0

PageRank for Provenance. A URL-native provenance architecture for AI-generated answers.

AI emits provenance receipts. The web observes receipts. Observed receipts accumulate into a provenance ledger.

Trailstate does not certify truth. It ranks observable provenance quality.
