  "population": "Current publicly disclosed portfolio descriptions, not original admission-time portfolios.",
  "review": "Single analyst/AI-assisted public-source coding. No independent human agreement score is claimed.",
  "technology": {
    "Applied AI": "Declared AI application or AI-agent software/infrastructure without a supported claim that core foundation-model research is the principal product. This describes product positioning, not verified implementation.",
    "AI models/research": "Own model development explicitly central to the described product; research quality is not independently validated.",
    "Robotics": "Integrated robots execute physical work; may also use AI.",
    "Hardware/electronics": "Physical electronic device, sensor, chip or space/defense system is the principal delivered product; may also use AI.",
    "Industrial processes": "Manufacturing or treatment process defines the technical approach; may also use AI.",
    "Biotech": "Biological computation or therapeutic development defines the approach; may also use AI.",
    "Software; AI unspecified": "Software, data or financial infrastructure with no established AI implementation in the reviewed product description. This is not a finding that no AI is used.",
    "Unclear": "Insufficient public evidence to assign a technology class."
  },
  "architecture": {
    "Software product": "Customer uses a software platform, tool, API or app; automating a workflow alone does not establish a service operating company.",
    "Delivered service": "Company accepts responsibility for completed professional, administrative, care or operational work. Commercial terms may still be unknown.",
    "Hybrid software + service": "Both customer-facing software and implementation/delivered services are materially described; split may be unverified.",
    "Physical product/system": "Company supplies a physical device, machine, industrial process system, or treatment. Sale versus leasing is not inferred.",
    "Financial operator": "Company operates or is establishing an investment or banking business, not merely supplying tools to it. Regulatory status is not inferred.",
    "Marketplace": "Connects counterparties in a transaction; no take rate inferred.",
    "Research/IP": "Research, models, indices, or technical IP is the leading proposed deliverable with a commercial format not yet established.",
    "Content/experience": "A game or other directly consumed entertainment experience.",
    "Unclear": "Commercial responsibility or delivered product is insufficiently specified."
  },
  "revenue": "Code only explicit charging units, such as per-use, fixed legal fees or subscription. ARR, customer counts, platform language and an app login do not establish the charging model.",
  "primary_labels": "One primary technology, market, architecture and product label per company; a separately reported AI signal allows physical and biological companies to be AI-related without being counted as applied-AI software.",
  "ambiguity": "Medium and low confidence classifications are retained visibly. Strict sensitivity excludes both. Unknown categories remain in denominators and are reported separately.",
  "selection": "Before inspecting company profiles, sort each cohort by SHA256(20261016|programme|directory_id) and take 24. This is a deterministic pseudo-random pilot, not a census."
