How we source and check every page
Integritos Real Estate publishes guides to places in South Florida. This page explains where the facts on those guides come from, how each one is checked before a page is published, and what the dates and labels on each page mean.
What do our place pages publish?
Facts about places: jurisdiction, history, parks, libraries, natural areas and other named public institutions, each taken from the body that publishes it.
We describe places, never people. Our pages carry no description of who lives in a place, no demographic data, no school ratings or rankings, and no prices or market statistics.
Which sources do we accept?
Government sources for anything about jurisdiction, boundaries or public services: county, city, state and federal agencies, and their published datasets. An organisation’s own website for its own name, address and details.
We do not use aggregators, directories, other brokerages, blogs or AI-generated summaries as sources.
How is each fact checked?
Every statement of fact on a page is checked in one of two ways before the page is published.
Quoted: the statement is matched to the source’s own words. The source page is fetched, and the quoted passage must appear in it word for word, ignoring only differences of case, spacing and punctuation style. A statement with no matching passage does not publish.
Dataset: where the source is a government dataset rather than a page of text, the dataset is queried directly, and a second control query must also succeed, so that an empty answer cannot be mistaken for a confirmed one.
The check is tied to the exact wording on the page. If the wording changes, the page is checked again before it can stay published.
What does the evidence label on each source mean?
Observed: the fact is stated by its source, either in its own words or as a value in its dataset.
Two further labels are defined but not used yet. Modeled would mark a fact we calculate from sourced inputs, such as a walking time, with the calculation described on the page. Inferred would mark a fact reasoned from sources rather than stated by them. No page publishes either kind today.
What do the two dates on each page mean?
Reviewed: the date the broker approved the page as it now reads. If the wording changes, the page must be approved again before it can stay published.
Data as of: the date of the oldest source retrieval any fact on the page rests on.
Neither date is written into the page. Both are read from records: the broker’s approval record and the source-check record.
