Robert Schaub 2.1 34 === What's NOT in POC
Robert Schaub 1.1 35
36 ❌ Scenarios (multiple interpretations)
37 ❌ Evidence display (supporting/opposing lists)
38 ❌ Source links
39 ❌ Detailed reasoning chains
40 ❌ User accounts, history, search
41 ❌ Browser extensions, API
42 ❌ Accessibility, multilingual, mobile
43 ❌ Export, sharing features
44 ❌ Any other features
45
Robert Schaub 2.1 46 === Critical Requirement
Robert Schaub 1.1 47
48 **FULLY AUTOMATED - NO MANUAL EDITING**
49
50 This is non-negotiable. POC tests whether AI can do this without human intervention.
51
Robert Schaub 2.1 52 === POC Success Criteria
Robert Schaub 1.1 53
54 **Passes if:**
55 - ✅ AI extracts 3-5 factual claims automatically
56 - ✅ AI provides reasonable verdicts (≥70% make sense)
57 - ✅ Output is comprehensible
58 - ✅ Team agrees approach has merit
59 - ✅ Minimal or no manual editing needed
60
61 **Fails if:**
62 - ❌ Claim extraction poor (< 60% accuracy)
63 - ❌ Verdicts nonsensical (< 60% reasonable)
64 - ❌ Requires manual editing for most analyses (> 50%)
65 - ❌ Team loses confidence in approach
66
Robert Schaub 2.1 67 === POC Architecture
Robert Schaub 1.1 68
69 **Frontend:** Simple input form + results display
70 **Backend:** Single API call to Claude (Sonnet 4.5)
71 **Processing:** One prompt generates complete analysis
72 **Database:** None required (stateless)
73
Robert Schaub 2.1 74 === POC Philosophy
Robert Schaub 1.1 75
76 > "Build less, learn more, decide faster. Test the hardest part first."

Robert Schaub 2.1 80 == 2. Gap Analysis - Strategic Framework
Robert Schaub 1.1 81
Robert Schaub 2.1 82 === Framework Definition
Robert Schaub 1.1 83
84 **Importance = f(risk, impact, strategy)**
85 - Risk: What breaks if we don't have this?
86 - Impact: How many users? How severe?
87 - Strategy: Does it advance FactHarbor's mission?
88
89 **Urgency = f(fail fast and learn, legal, promises made)**
90 - Fail fast: Do we need to test assumptions?
91 - Legal: External requirements/deadlines?
92 - Promises: Commitments to stakeholders?
93

Robert Schaub 2.1 130 === Importance/Urgency Analysis
Robert Schaub 1.1 131
132 **VERY HIGH Importance + HIGH Urgency:**
133 1. **Accessibility (WCAG)**
134 - Risk: Legal liability, 15-20% users excluded
135 - Urgency: European Accessibility Act (June 28, 2025)
136 - Action: Must be built from start (retrofitting 100x more expensive)
137
138 2. **Educational Resources**
139 - Risk: Platform fails if users can't understand
140 - Urgency: Required for any adoption
141 - Action: Basic onboarding essential
142
143 **HIGH Importance + MEDIUM Urgency:**
144 3. **Browser Extensions** - Standard user expectation, test demand first
145 4. **Media Verification** - Cannot address visual misinformation without it
146 5. **Multilingual** - Global mission requires it, plan early
147
148 **HIGH Importance + LOW Urgency:**
149 6. **Mobile Apps** - 90%+ users on mobile, but web-first viable
150 7. **ClaimReview Schema** - SEO/discoverability, can add anytime

Robert Schaub 2.1 154 == 1.7 POC Alignment with Full Specification
Robert Schaub 1.1 155
Robert Schaub 2.1 156 === POC Intentional Simplifications
Robert Schaub 1.1 157
158 **POC1 tests core AI capability, not full architecture:**
159
160 **What POC Tests:**
161 - Can AI extract claims from articles?
162 - Can AI evaluate claims with reasonable verdicts?
163 - Is fully automated approach viable?
164 - Is output comprehensible to users?
165
166 **What POC Excludes (Intentionally):**
167 - ❌ Scenarios (deferred to POC2 - open architectural questions remain)
168 - ❌ Evidence display (deferred to POC2)
169 - ❌ Multi-component AKEL pipeline (simplified to single API call)
170 - ❌ Quality gate infrastructure (simplified basic checks)
171 - ❌ Production data model (stateless POC)
172 - ❌ Review workflow system (no review queue)
173
174 **Why Simplified:**
175 - Fail fast: Test hardest part first (AI capability)
176 - Learn before building: POC1 informs architecture decisions
177 - Iterative: Add complexity based on POC1 learnings
178 - Risk management: Prove concept before major investment
179
Robert Schaub 2.1 180 === Full System Architecture (Future)
Robert Schaub 1.1 181
182 **Workflow:**
183 {{code}}
184 Claims → Scenarios → Evidence → Verdicts
185 {{/code}}
186
187 **AKEL Components:**
188 - Orchestrator
189 - Claim Extractor & Classifier
190 - Scenario Generator
191 - Evidence Summarizer
192 - Contradiction Detector
193 - Quality Gate Validator
194 - Audit Sampling Scheduler
195
196 **Publication Modes:**
197 - Mode 1: Draft-Only
198 - Mode 2: AI-Generated (POC uses this)
199 - Mode 3: AKEL-Generated (Human-Reviewed)
200
Robert Schaub 2.1 201 === POC vs. Full System Summary
Robert Schaub 1.1 202
203 |=Aspect|=POC1|=Full System
204 |Scenarios|None (deferred to POC2)|Core component with versioning
205 |Workflow|3 steps (input/process/output)|6 phases with quality gates
206 |AKEL|Single API call|Multi-component orchestrated pipeline
207 |Data|Stateless (no DB)|PostgreSQL + Redis + S3
208 |Publication|Mode 2 only|Modes 1/2/3 with risk-based routing
209 |Quality Gates|4 simplified checks|Full validation infrastructure
210
Robert Schaub 2.1 211 === Gap Between POC and Beta
Robert Schaub 1.1 212
213 **Significant architectural expansion needed:**
214 1. Scenario generation component design and implementation
215 2. Evidence Model full structure
216 3. Multi-phase workflow with gates
217 4. Component-based AKEL architecture
218 5. Production data model and storage
219 6. Review workflow and audit systems
220
221 **POC proves concept. Beta builds product.**
222
223
224 **MEDIUM Importance + LOW Urgency:**
225 8-14. All other features - valuable but not urgent
226
227 **Strategic Decisions Needed:**
228 - Community discussion: Allow or stay evidence-focused?
229 - Personalization: How much without filter bubbles?
230 - Media verification: Partner with existing tools or build?
231
Robert Schaub 2.1 232 === Key Insight: Milestones Change Priorities
Robert Schaub 1.1 233
234 **POC:** Only educational resources urgent (basic explainer)
235 **Beta:** Accessibility becomes urgent (test with diverse users)
236 **Release:** Legal requirements become critical (WCAG, GDPR)
237
238 **Importance/urgency are contextual, not absolute.**

Robert Schaub 2.1 242 == 3. Key Strategic Recommendations
Robert Schaub 1.1 243
Robert Schaub 2.1 244 === Immediate Actions
Robert Schaub 1.1 245
246 **For POC:**
247 1. Focus on core functionality only (claims + verdicts)
248 2. Create basic explainer (1 page)
249 3. Test AI quality without manual editing
250 4. Make GO/NO-GO decision
251
252 **Planning:**
253 1. Define accessibility strategy (when to build)
254 2. Decide on multilingual priorities (which languages first)
255 3. Research media verification options (partner vs build)
256 4. Evaluate browser extension approach
257
Robert Schaub 2.1 258 === Testing Strategy
Robert Schaub 1.1 259
260 **POC Tests:** Can AI do this without humans?
261 **Beta Tests:** What do users need? What works? What doesn't?
262 **Release Tests:** Is it production-ready?
263
264 **Key Principle:** Test assumptions before building features.
265
Robert Schaub 2.1 266 === Build Sequence (Priority Order)
Robert Schaub 1.1 267
268 **Must Build:**
269 1. Core analysis (claims + verdicts) ← POC
270 2. Educational resources (basic → comprehensive)
271 3. Accessibility (WCAG 2.1 AA) ← Legal requirement
272
273 **Should Build (Validate First):**
274 4. Browser extensions ← Test demand
275 5. Media verification ← Pilot with existing tools
276 6. Multilingual ← Start with 2-3 languages
277
278 **Can Build Later:**
279 7. Mobile apps ← PWA first
280 8. ClaimReview schema ← After content library
281 9. Export features ← Based on user requests
282 10. Everything else ← Based on validation
283
Robert Schaub 2.1 284 === Decision Framework
Robert Schaub 1.1 285
286 **For each feature, ask:**
287 1. **Importance:** Risk + Impact + Strategy alignment?
288 2. **Urgency:** Fail fast + Legal + Promises?
289 3. **Validation:** Do we know users want this?
Robert Schaub 2.1 290 4. **Priority:** When should we build it?
Robert Schaub 1.1 291
292 **Don't build anything without answering these questions.**
