How Willow refuses a directional verdict.
Every displayed figure must carry its source and the reporting or as-of date that applies, or the brief fails instead of shipping. Both sides of the case are required. There is no directional verdict. This page is the operating spec: what Willow promises, what it refuses, and how the system enforces both.
What we don't do
Every brief is educational research. We never give a directional verdict on a security, never publish a numerical forecast or rating, and never tell you what to do with your money.
Both sides, by construction
Every brief has a bull case AND a bear case, every time. The structure is enforced server-side; the model can't publish a brief without both.
Source pipeline
SEC EDGAR filings, TTM fundamentals, daily price action, recent news. Sources are fetched fresh on every fire — every paragraph in a brief leans on a public source we name and link to.
The checks that gate every brief
Before a brief is saved, code checks that its structure is complete, that both cases carry evidence, that every figure matches a source, that source-coverage gaps are disclosed, and that headline numbers trace to their filing and period. A brief that fails a check is not published.
