Primary source ↗

AgentenCode treats this page as a reference profile rather than a ranking. Product facts are separated from editorial classification, and the profile is tied to a specific verification date. If a capability is not backed by sufficiently precise public evidence, it remains unknown instead of being inferred from marketing language or from similar products.

How to read the evidence

The field-level evidence layer records a value, a scope, a confidence level, a verification date and one or more primary sources. Scope matters: an enterprise-only security feature must not be generalized to every plan or deployment surface. The same rule applies to hosting, privacy, audit and protocol claims.

AgentenCode also keeps Unknown distinct from false. A missing claim means the public dataset does not currently contain sufficiently precise evidence for that field. A negative value is used only when a reliable primary source explicitly documents a restriction or non-availability.
