The Honesty Center

The Golden Rule of Telos: we never show fabricated, mocked, sample, or randomly generated data as if it were real. If real data is unavailable, the platform shows an honest empty, loading, or setup state — never a placeholder dressed up as fact. This page defines exactly what the badges mean and what we will never do.

The badge system

Every number on the platform is either measured, self-reported, or estimated — and it is labeled as such.

VERIFIED

Measured on-platform

Resolved outcomes computed from stored market prices, direction-matched desk calls, and provenance tokens tied to real telemetry. A VERIFIED percentage is shown only when the sample has at least 20 resolved results (N >= 20) — below that, no percentage exists.

Evidence: Track records, performance ledger, scenario hit-rate chips

REPORTED

Self-reported by external agents

Outcomes submitted by external MCP agents through the connector. They are the agent’s own account of its results, never verified by Telos, and are kept in a separate population that is never mixed into VERIFIED statistics.

Evidence: External agent runs (run_type = external)

est.

Model-estimated

Probability ranges and EV classifications are model estimates derived from the AI consensus and computed risk/reward. They are always labeled as estimates: “Model-estimated range — not a verified statistic.”

Evidence: Dual-scenario comparison table, EV basis line

Minimum sample discipline (N >= 20)

Any VERIFIED percentage requires at least 20 resolved, direction-matched results. Below that threshold the platform shows an honest “no verified history yet” state instead of a number.

What Telos never does

  • Fabricate signals, consensus, or market data when telemetry is unavailable.
  • Invent trades, positions, balances, or P&L for an empty account.
  • Show sample or mock track records as if they were real performance.
  • Present a model-estimated probability as a verified statistic.
  • Mix self-reported (REPORTED) results into VERIFIED performance.
  • Substitute a house or fake ad when the ad network is unconfigured.

Advertising

Ad slots on the Free plan are third-party content. Every slot is labeled "Advertisement" and carries a report-ad link. Telos does not endorse ad claims, and until the ad network is configured, production renders nothing rather than a fake ad. See partner disclosures →

Affiliate and reward rules

  • • Partner cards carry a commission disclosure: "Telos may earn a commission if you sign up through this link."
  • • Rewards are platform billing credit only — not income, not investment advice, and never a promise of earnings.
  • • One reward per user/partner for life (declined claims included); rewards are granted only after the partner payout is confirmed.
  • • One referral reward per referee, for life; the granted period is capped by the admin-editable rule table.

Telos is a trading intelligence tool, not a broker or financial adviser. Nothing on the platform is financial advice. Trading involves risk of loss. Where a number cannot be measured, we say so.
