Methodology Versioning and Historical Reports

Methodology Versioning and Historical Reports

Every AIVA report, score, and ranking references the specific methodology version and evidence date under which it was produced. Methodology versions are recorded using semantic versioning and published in the AIVA methodology changelog.

Historical AIVA reports are interpreted using the methodology version that was active at the time of publication. AIVA does not retroactively rescore prior reports when methodology versions change, except where explicitly noted as a restatement. Comparisons across methodology versions should account for differences in evidence sources, evaluation dimensions, weighting, and calibration that may exist between versions.

Customers requiring methodology-version provenance for audit, procurement, or regulatory purposes may request a signed methodology certificate for any AIVA report through permissions@theaivisibilityagency.com.
