It follows an evidence trail instead of inventing a score

An insurer's decision cannot be reproduced by a public quiz. This tool does a narrower, useful job: it converts a broad label into observable facts, identifies what supports those facts and shows where the record still has gaps.

Broad label: “Construction worker”
Observable fact: 20% of time above 20 feet
Supporting record: Job description and safety training
Useful question: How should rare duties be described?

Each path builds a different kind of brief

The tool does not swap one topic name into the same answer. Each route uses the evidence pattern that fits the underlying question.

Health: a dated clinical story

Diagnosis, treatment changes, control measurements, follow-up and complications are arranged as a timeline.

Occupation: a duty and exposure map

The output separates job title from actual tasks, time at risk, maximum exposure, travel and safeguards.

Explore occupation evidence →

Activity and travel: a measurable exposure profile

Frequency, limits, location, qualifications, safety practice and known plans form the useful record.

Explore activity evidence →
