"Verified" on Paisán means we completed a defined review against our process at a specific point in time—focused on who operates the profile, whether the listing is contactable and coherent, and whether catalog signals match what we expect for export-oriented suppliers. It is not a warranty of product quality, on-time delivery, or financial health, and it may not include an on-site factory audit unless we say so explicitly for a given program.
Verification can also draw on certifications or documents you submit; those checks are limited to what we can reasonably validate from the materials provided. Always pair platform signals with your own diligence (samples, references, and broker/regulatory checks) before scaling spend.
On supplier profiles you may see a Trust Score (shown as a number out of 10) with expandable insight factors and the note: "Based on verified profile data and country context." This score reflects observable directory signals—profile content, automated external research, verification status, profile completeness, and country-level supply-chain context—not purchase history on Paisán. A separate country opportunity score (also out of 10) summarizes political, economic, regulatory, logistics, and quality risk for the supplier's country and industry.
Once orders become live on the platform, separate order-based metrics (on-time delivery, response time) may appear alongside the directory score. Until then, the Trust Score is our launch-time signal for comparing suppliers in the directory honestly, without implying performance we have not measured.
