How these numbers are produced

Publication and verification are counted separately.: A record appearing in the catalog means we found it. It does not mean we re-confirmed it against the administrator. Those are two different rows in the tables above and we never merge them into one headline figure.
Each layer publishes its own refresh date.: The matters layer and the settlements layer run on separate pipelines that can fall out of step. A fresh date on one is never borrowed to describe the other.
The re-confirmation count measures our reach, not the catalog's accuracy.: We attempt to re-fetch each open settlement on the administrator's own site and re-read the deadline. Most administrator sites sit behind bot protection that refuses automated requests, so this count is currently near zero. That is a statement about what we can reach, not about whether the records are right. We publish it anyway rather than quietly dropping the row.
Primary source coverage is a link, not a judgement.: "Carrying a primary source URL" means the record points at a court filing, regulator notice or administrator page. It does not assert that we have re-read that document today.
Nothing here is a payout estimate.: Payout bands are ranges drawn from settlement documents. Actual payments are set by the administrator or the court, not by claimscout.
Counts are live, not cached snapshots.: Computed at request time from the production database, with a short cache so a crawl burst does not hammer it. Reload and they move when the data moves.
