Why this confidence level
  • Evidence confidence uses source level and claim-to-source support; AI claim confidence is shown separately.
  • Required-field evidence status measures whether weighted required claims have evidence links; it does not mean every product behavior was independently verified.
  • 8 of 8 weighted claims have evidence links.
  • 6 A1 documentary official sources and 3 A2 official product sources are linked.
  • 0 independent review sources are retained, including 0 professional sources with an explicit hands-on method.
  • No weighted claim is past the review window.
  • No blocking evidence conflict was identified.
Application embedding fit20%
88

The Visual Embed SDK, REST APIs and custom actions support analytics within customer-facing applications; the internal Embed Add-on has a different license scope.

Tenant security and access control20%
87

Tenant organizations, row-level security and SSO support separation of customer access; HIPAA-related customer data additionally requires an executed BAA.

White-label experience quality20%
84

Branded dashboards and embedded search support a host-product experience, while teams still need to align the embedded interactions with their application.

Customer-facing performance15%
78

The multi-tenant model and Enterprise user and data allowances support customer-facing deployment, while query-based consumption affects the operating budget for dashboard use.

Embedded self-service depth15%
82

Natural-language search, self-service exploration and writeback workflows let customers investigate data and act within the application; AI and Analyst Studio entitlements depend on the purchasing option.

Product administration visibility10%
80

REST APIs and permission groups give product teams interfaces and access controls for embedded deployments; User and Usage licensing and query consumption remain separate administration decisions.
