# For Risk Teams

> For the Head of Risk and allocator: why the data is trustworthy, what you get, and how to run an evaluation.

If you are responsible for where capital goes and whether it's safe once deployed, this page is the starting point. It answers the three questions a risk evaluator asks first: *can I trust this data, what exactly do I get, and how do I try it?*

## Why you can trust the data

Trust is not a tagline here — it's built into the product and documented openly:

* **Every number states its own freshness and quality.** Each response carries a freshness status and a quality verdict, and names any degraded inputs. A stale or low-confidence answer says so. See [Freshness & quality](/trust/data/freshness-and-quality).
* **The methodology is published.** How factor scores, VaR, oracle classification, and pool risk scores are computed is written down — including the assumptions and the [limitations](/trust/methodology/limitations). See [Methodology](/trust/methodology/overview).
* **Provenance is auditable.** Data is sourced directly from the chain and normalized once; responses can name the sources behind a number. See [Data provenance](/trust/data/provenance).
* **Coverage is honest.** A machine-readable [coverage manifest](/trust/data/coverage-and-gaps) reports what's complete and where the gaps are — you verify before you rely.

We make **no certification claims** and publish **no guarantees** — our numbers are model estimates and inputs to your decision, not a substitute for it. That honesty is the point.

## What you get

* **Pre-deposit due diligence** on vaults: composition, oracle soundness, and curator track record.
* **Continuous monitoring**: exposure breakdowns, a risk-events feed, and webhooks that push when something changes.
* **Curator selection**: track record, fees, allocations, and cap history to compare managers.
* **Peg & contagion watch**: peg history, market regime, and capital-flow signals for treasury assets.

These map to concrete API workflows — see the [use cases](/use-cases/pre-deposit-vault-due-diligence).

## How to run an evaluation

<Steps>
  <Step title="See what's covered">
    Check the [Coverage](/coverage) page and query the open `GET /v2/data-manifest` to confirm the markets and assets you care about are covered, and how completely.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Read the methodology for the signals you'd use">
    Skim [Methodology](/trust/methodology/overview) and [Limitations](/trust/methodology/limitations) for the specific scores you'd act on — so you know what they do and don't claim.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Try the API on a real position">
    Get a key via [Get started](/develop/get-started/introduction) and run one of the [use cases](/use-cases/pre-deposit-vault-due-diligence) against a vault or asset you already hold an opinion on. Compare the output to your own view.

  <Step title="Talk to us about scale">
    When you're ready for production volume, see [Pricing](/pricing) and contact sales for Team, Enterprise, or Custom plans.
