Aculeus is for source-backed public-records work.
Approved users may run investigations, retrieve public records, organize receipts, review candidate leads, export case materials, and create verification-gap work orders.
Known paid customer pilot
Terms for controlled public-records investigation work.
These terms define how approved customers may use Aculeus during the pilot. The product is built for public-records investigation, evidence organization, source review, and internal decision support.
The customer owns downstream use.
Customers remain responsible for professional review, lawful use, publication choices, attribution, confidentiality, and any decision made from Aculeus outputs.
Candidate leads are not proof.
Search results, snippets, crawler records, model plans, and provider summaries remain candidate leads until receipt capture, citation verification, and reviewer promotion gates pass.
Accounts are invite-only and role-bound.
Admin, operator, reviewer, viewer, and pending accounts receive different capabilities. Shared credentials, unauthorized access, and attempts to bypass role gates are prohibited.
Provider and crawler limits are enforceable.
Customers must respect configured spend caps, rate limits, source restrictions, robots or portal rules, and any provider limitations surfaced in the source ledger.
Human review is part of the product contract.
Aculeus can identify anomalies, conflicts, verification gaps, and next actions. It does not automatically adjudicate fraud, intent, waste, abuse, legality, or culpability.
