Using VidScore Results Responsibly

What you can expect

• Results should be reviewed alongside the original video or page they reference
• Scores and summaries reflect automated analysis, not human editorial judgment
• Context that is obvious to a human viewer may not be captured by automated analysis
• Results may change as content changes. A result from last week may differ from today's

Limits

• Using VidScore results as the sole basis for decisions about people, brands, or products
• Sharing VidScore results as confirmed facts without verifying against original sources
• Assuming automated results capture nuance, tone, or intent accurately

How it works

Responsible use follows a simple pattern: explore with VidScore, verify with original sources, and form your own conclusions. VidScore is designed to accelerate the exploration phase. It helps you find patterns and connections you might otherwise miss. It is not designed to replace the verification phase.

When results feel surprising or counterintuitive, that is often the most important moment to consult the original content. Automated systems can surface real patterns, but they can also surface artifacts, associations that exist in the data but are misleading without context.

Common misconceptions

• Believing that detailed results imply accuracy. Detail and accuracy are independent properties
• Sharing a VidScore summary as if it were a factual statement. Summaries are informational, not authoritative
• Assuming that because VidScore flagged an association, that association is meaningful or intentional
