Public working disclosure · Version 0.1

Evidence should make a claim smaller, clearer and checkable.

Zaivik’s verification framework connects product claims to the applicable source, lot, sample, method, panel, reporting limits and date. It is a working disclosure—not an independent certification—and each product page remains the source of truth for what is currently available.

The direct answer

What does Zaivik verification mean?

It means Zaivik keeps source, farm-practice, sampling, laboratory and handling records as separate forms of evidence and states which are available for a product or batch. A purchase-ready product is not automatically represented as certified, residue-tested or approved for every possible claim.

Scope and status

What is operational today?

The framework applies to Zaivik food products, but its individual checkpoints can have different maturity and publication status.

LIVE

Source and lot identity

Approved supplier, FPO or farmer information and receiving records keep an incoming lot identifiable.

PILOT → SCALE

Farm-practice records

Cultivation inputs and field observations are being standardized across participating farm and FPO relationships.

UNDER REVIEW

Sampling standard

The public sampling plan is being reviewed before it is represented as a uniform programme across products.

PRODUCT-SPECIFIC

Laboratory evidence

A report is disclosed only for the named sample, method, panel, reporting limits and date.

LIVE

Receiving and pack records

Accepted lots remain connected to receiving, handling and packing information within the operational system.

PHASED RELEASE

Customer batch lookup

Only records approved for public disclosure appear in the batch trace experience.

Decision rules

A result must lead to a controlled action.

Release

A batch can be released only through the applicable operational approval route. A test result is interpreted against the stated requirement and decision rule.

Hold and investigate

A concern pauses the batch while identity, sampling, result and process records are checked. Retesting must follow a defined reason, not continue until a convenient result appears.

Reject or correct

A batch that does not meet the applicable requirement is rejected, otherwise controlled or corrected according to the approved process and legal obligations.

Read the result correctly

MRL, LOD, LOQ and “not detected” answer different questions.

MRLMaximum Residue Limit

The applicable legal limit for a named pesticide and food combination. It is not the same as a laboratory reporting limit.

LODLimit of Detection

The lowest level at which a method can reliably detect that an analyte may be present under stated conditions.

LOQLimit of Quantification

The lowest level at which a method can quantify an analyte with stated performance.

NDNot Detected

The analyte was not reported at or above the stated method capability in that sample. It does not prove absolute molecular zero.

What evidence can show

A bounded answer about the identified record.

A source record can establish a documented source relationship. A farm record can describe reported practices. A laboratory report can establish what the stated method measured in the submitted sample for the listed panel.

What it cannot show

A universal guarantee about the food.

No single record proves every safety, nutrition, authenticity, environmental or farming claim. “Not detected” remains limited by the sample, analyte list, method and reporting capability.
