Robert Schaub 5.1 3 == 1. POC Specification ==
Robert Schaub 1.1 4
Robert Schaub 2.1 5 === POC Goal
Robert Schaub 1.1 6 Prove that AI can extract claims and determine verdicts automatically without human intervention.
7
Robert Schaub 2.1 8 === POC Output (4 Components Only)
Robert Schaub 1.1 9
10 **1. ANALYSIS SUMMARY**
11 - 3-5 sentences
12 - How many claims found
13 - Distribution of verdicts
14 - Overall assessment
15
16 **2. CLAIMS IDENTIFICATION**
17 - 3-5 numbered factual claims
18 - Extracted automatically by AI
19
20 **3. CLAIMS VERDICTS**
21 - Per claim: Verdict label + Confidence % + Brief reasoning (1-3 sentences)
22 - Verdict labels: WELL-SUPPORTED / PARTIALLY SUPPORTED / UNCERTAIN / REFUTED
23
24 **4. ARTICLE SUMMARY (optional)**
25 - 3-5 sentences
26 - Neutral summary of article content
27
28 **Total output: ~200-300 words**
29
Robert Schaub 2.1 30 === What's NOT in POC
Robert Schaub 1.1 31
32 ❌ Scenarios (multiple interpretations)
33 ❌ Evidence display (supporting/opposing lists)
34 ❌ Source links
35 ❌ Detailed reasoning chains
36 ❌ User accounts, history, search
37 ❌ Browser extensions, API
38 ❌ Accessibility, multilingual, mobile
39 ❌ Export, sharing features
40 ❌ Any other features
41
Robert Schaub 2.1 42 === Critical Requirement
Robert Schaub 1.1 43
44 **FULLY AUTOMATED - NO MANUAL EDITING**
45
46 This is non-negotiable. POC tests whether AI can do this without human intervention.
47
Robert Schaub 2.1 48 === POC Success Criteria
Robert Schaub 1.1 49
50 **Passes if:**
51 - ✅ AI extracts 3-5 factual claims automatically
52 - ✅ AI provides reasonable verdicts (≥70% make sense)
53 - ✅ Output is comprehensible
54 - ✅ Team agrees approach has merit
55 - ✅ Minimal or no manual editing needed
56
57 **Fails if:**
58 - ❌ Claim extraction poor (< 60% accuracy)
59 - ❌ Verdicts nonsensical (< 60% reasonable)
60 - ❌ Requires manual editing for most analyses (> 50%)
61 - ❌ Team loses confidence in approach
62
Robert Schaub 2.1 63 === POC Architecture
Robert Schaub 1.1 64
65 **Frontend:** Simple input form + results display
66 **Backend:** Single API call to Claude (Sonnet 4.5)
67 **Processing:** One prompt generates complete analysis
68 **Database:** None required (stateless)
69
Robert Schaub 2.1 70 === POC Philosophy
Robert Schaub 1.1 71
72 > "Build less, learn more, decide faster. Test the hardest part first."
73
Robert Schaub 4.1 74
75
76 === Context-Aware Analysis (Experimental POC1 Feature) ===
77
78 **Problem:** Article credibility ≠ simple average of claim verdicts
79
80 **Example:** Article with accurate facts (coffee has antioxidants, antioxidants fight cancer) but false conclusion (therefore coffee cures cancer) would score as "mostly accurate" with simple averaging, but is actually MISLEADING.
81
82 **Solution (POC1 Test):** Approach 1 - Single-Pass Holistic Analysis
83 * Enhanced AI prompt to evaluate logical structure
84 * AI identifies main argument and assesses if it follows from evidence
85 * Article verdict may differ from claim average
86 * Zero additional cost, no architecture changes
87
88 **Testing:**
89 * 30-article test set
90 * Success: ≥70% accuracy detecting misleading articles
91 * Marked as experimental
92

Robert Schaub 3.1 95 == 2. Key Strategic Recommendations
Robert Schaub 1.1 96
Robert Schaub 2.1 97 === Immediate Actions
Robert Schaub 1.1 98
99 **For POC:**
100 1. Focus on core functionality only (claims + verdicts)
101 2. Create basic explainer (1 page)
102 3. Test AI quality without manual editing
103 4. Make GO/NO-GO decision
104
105 **Planning:**
106 1. Define accessibility strategy (when to build)
107 2. Decide on multilingual priorities (which languages first)
108 3. Research media verification options (partner vs build)
109 4. Evaluate browser extension approach
110
Robert Schaub 2.1 111 === Testing Strategy
Robert Schaub 1.1 112
113 **POC Tests:** Can AI do this without humans?
114 **Beta Tests:** What do users need? What works? What doesn't?
115 **Release Tests:** Is it production-ready?
116
117 **Key Principle:** Test assumptions before building features.
118
Robert Schaub 2.1 119 === Build Sequence (Priority Order)
Robert Schaub 1.1 120
121 **Must Build:**
122 1. Core analysis (claims + verdicts) ← POC
123 2. Educational resources (basic → comprehensive)
124 3. Accessibility (WCAG 2.1 AA) ← Legal requirement
125
126 **Should Build (Validate First):**
127 4. Browser extensions ← Test demand
128 5. Media verification ← Pilot with existing tools
129 6. Multilingual ← Start with 2-3 languages
130
131 **Can Build Later:**
132 7. Mobile apps ← PWA first
133 8. ClaimReview schema ← After content library
134 9. Export features ← Based on user requests
135 10. Everything else ← Based on validation
136
Robert Schaub 2.1 137 === Decision Framework
Robert Schaub 1.1 138
139 **For each feature, ask:**
140 1. **Importance:** Risk + Impact + Strategy alignment?
141 2. **Urgency:** Fail fast + Legal + Promises?
142 3. **Validation:** Do we know users want this?
Robert Schaub 2.1 143 4. **Priority:** When should we build it?
Robert Schaub 1.1 144
145 **Don't build anything without answering these questions.**
