Every figure names the register it came from.
DealSTE reads public registers — state business registries, liens, permits, federal filings, carrier and facility records — and keeps each figure with its source and the date it was read. Nothing here is bought from a data vendor.

How we keep it honest
Breadth is easy to claim. These are the checks the record has to pass before a figure reaches a Dossier.
Read every night, checked every night
A sweep reads each live register every night, then a reconcile compares what changed against what we hold. 6 nights are on record, each one logged. A record that fails a check — a ZIP code in the wrong state, an identifier in the wrong shape, a reference to nothing — is held out of the Dossier, so you see “not on record” before a figure we cannot stand behind.
Traced back to the filing
A probe picks figures off the screens at random and follows each one to the source row, the run and the register’s own date. In the run of 11 Oct 2026, 99 of 100 traced; a figure that does not trace is logged as a fault with its reason, and the nightly reconcile reads it.

No household, credit or personal attributes bought from a broker.
An estimate carries the word and its method. A record carries its register and date.
Paid sources are priced and parked; none feeds the record today.
