How we know what we publish
Last reviewed 7 Jun 2026
tempowiki is only as good as its sourcing. The goal is simple: every meaningful claim should be traceable to a primary source, dated, and honest about how confident we are. Here is how that works.
Primary sources first
We prioritise primary sources — Tempo's official site and docs, the protocol's GitHub and TIPs, issuer attestations, company announcements, and on-chain explorers — over secondary coverage. Each key fact stores the source URL and the date it was retrieved, rendered as a citation on the page.
Multi-model cross-checking
Research is cross-checked across multiple independent models and web search, run offline rather than at page load. When the models and sources agree, confidence is high. When they disagree, the disagreement itself becomes the signal: the claim is downgraded or held back. No fact is published just because one model asserted it.
Confidence, not false precision
- High — multiple independent primary sources agree.
- Medium — a single credible source, or partial corroboration.
- Low — reported but unconfirmed; shown with a caveat.
Named gaps over guesses
Tempo is new and some disclosures are thin — funding details, full team rosters, audit status. Where we can't verify, we do not guess. We list a named gap so you can see exactly what is unconfirmed. We never assert a native token or airdrop, because none exists.
Live data, cached locally
Quantitative figures — supply, TVL, throughput, validator counts — come from provider feeds that sync into our data layer with an as-of timestamp. Pages read the local copy, so a slow or rate-limited upstream shows the last known value rather than breaking. Curated baselines mean nothing renders empty while sources warm up.
Corrections
Found an error? Tell us with a source. Verified corrections are applied and recorded in the Pulse change feed. Neutrality and accuracy beat speed every time.
Our methodology, answered
- What does the confidence score mean?
- Confidence reflects how strongly a fact is supported: high means multiple independent, primary sources agree; medium means a single credible source or partial corroboration; low means it is reported but unconfirmed. Low-confidence claims are flagged, not hidden.
- What is a named gap?
- A named gap is a fact we deliberately do not assert because sources disagree or none is sufficient — for example unconfirmed funding figures or team rosters. We name the gap so you know it is a known unknown, not an oversight.
- How often is content updated?
- Live metrics sync on a schedule. Curated dossiers carry a last-reviewed date and are re-verified on a cadence and whenever a sourced suggestion comes in. The Pulse feed records what changed and when.
