Platform · Audit Evidence Ledger
Preserve the evidence behind every governed AI-assisted workflow.
See which sources, contexts, retrieval steps, limitations, reviews, and decisions shaped an AI-supported accounting outcome — with attributable records and professional controls.
Evidence Continuity
The end-to-end lifecycle, from source admission to reviewed outcome
Continuity of evidence runs the whole way — every stage is recorded, so an AI-assisted outcome is never an unexplained jump.
- 01
Source eligibility
Only approved, in-scope sources may enter.
- 02
Content resolution
The relevant content is resolved and recorded.
- 03
Retrieval bundle
The exact bundle retrieved is captured.
- 04
AI-supported output
The generated response, kept separate from sources.
- 05
Human review
A qualified person confirms, revises, or overrides.
- 06
Consequential action
Any action taken on the reviewed outcome.
- 07
Change & retention
Versioning, freshness, and retention state.

Ledger Structure
What the ledger records — and what it does not claim
Eight record families capture identity, presence, context, retrieval, output, review, action, and lifecycle change.
- Identity
- Actor, tenant, subject, and timestamp — who and what.
- Source presence
- Which sources were present and eligible at the time.
- Context
- Framework, jurisdiction, entity, and reporting period.
- Retrieval
- The retrieved bundle and its manifest.
- Output
- The generated response, held separate from its sources.
- Review
- The reviewer's confirmation, revision, or override.
- Action
- The consequential action taken, if any.
- Lifecycle
- Version, freshness, and retention state over time.
The ledger does not claim an answer is correct or an opinion is sound. It records what informed an outcome and who reviewed it — correctness remains a qualified human responsibility.
Demonstration · Synthetic Entry
Inspect a synthetic evidence entry
No customer data. A fictional entry to show how an evidence record is structured.
Overview
A synthetic entry showing how one governed interaction is recorded end to end.
Decision Rights
Seven roles, explicit permissions
Human review is the final decision. No role may silently rewrite historical evidence.
Contributor
Creates and edits entries; cannot alter finalized records.
Specialist
Adds domain review within a defined scope.
Auditor / assurance reviewer
Read-only access to the full evidence trail.
System service
Automated writes under policy, with no silent override.
Reviewer
Confirms, revises, or overrides before an outcome is used.
Administrator
Configures roles, sources, and retention.
Observer
Limited, time-boxed read access.
Append, Never Overwrite
Change, version and freshness
Corrections and revisions create a durable new event. Each change is disclosed to the user.
Source update
A source version changes upstream.
Disclosure to user
The user is shown that a newer source version now applies.
Content revision
An entry is revised after review.
Disclosure to user
The prior version is preserved and marked superseded.
Version change
A concept or standard is re-versioned.
Disclosure to user
The user sees which version informed the answer.
Retention window
An entry reaches its retention boundary.
Disclosure to user
Retention state is disclosed, never silently purged.
Freshness check
A source is re-checked for currency.
Disclosure to user
Stale sources are flagged rather than used quietly.
Correction
A recorded error is corrected.
Disclosure to user
A correction is appended; history is never overwritten.
Privacy & Access
Evidence continuity coexists with field-level protection
Tenant isolation
Each organization's evidence is separated at the boundary.
Redaction
Sensitive fields can be redacted without breaking the trail.

Field-level access
Access is bound per field, per role, per policy.
Purpose limitation
Records are used only for the purpose they were governed for — never repurposed silently.
Integrity Architecture
Integrity and export boundaries
- 1
Entries are append-only; nothing is edited in place.
- 2
Each record is chained so tampering is detectable.
- 3
Exports carry their integrity signature with them.
- 4
Redaction preserves the record's structure and lineage.
- 5
Retention and deletion follow governed, disclosed policy.
Platform Continuity
Connected platform layers
The ledger sits under the whole platform chain, so every layer's evidence is captured.
Platform channels
Where professionals interact with Kriton™.

The reasoning layer over admitted sources.
Accounting Ontology
Governed concepts and typed relationships.
RAG Source Bundles
The eligible, versioned sources per question.
Audit Evidence Ledger
The append-only record tying it all together.

Frequently asked questions
An append-only record of every governed AI-assisted interaction — the sources present, the context, the generated output, the human review, and any action — preserved so the basis of an outcome can always be reconstructed.
