Method

How this is kept.

Updated fortnightly, on the same cycle as the research review that feeds it. Every entry is dated, so a stale one is visible as a stale one rather than passing for current.

This is an index, not a replacement. Each row records one figure, who published it and when. It carries none of the method behind that figure, none of the caveats the authors put on it and none of the argument it was built to support, all of which live in the report and none of which survive being reduced to a line in a table. A number worth putting in front of someone is worth reading in context first, which is why every row names its source.

What goes in. Reports, surveys, academic papers, regulator publications and vendor releases that put a figure on something they measured. Vendor-commissioned research is included and labelled as such, because who paid for a number is part of reading it. Legal-sector research sits alongside the cross-sector work it has to be read against, and the two are filterable apart.

What stays out. Figures with no traceable source, projections presented as measurements, and numbers quoted at second hand where the original could not be found.

Provenance

Don’t trust. Verify.

Every stat here carries a source and a date, but we have not independently re-checked them all against the original documents. The honest position is that this is a starting point extracted from reports, not a final answer.

Before a number goes into a client deck or a newsletter, we run the verify skill below against the specific stats that matter. It finds the original source, cross-references it against independent reporting, and flags anything that does not match. It uses parallel research where the tool supports it.

Claude Code: copy the skill, drop it into ~/.claude/skills/verify/SKILL.md and run /verify on whatever you are about to cite.

ChatGPT: open Plugins > Skills > Create > Create with editor, paste the skill and install it. In a chat, mention @verify followed by the claim or stats you want checked.

The vault file paths and changelog step in the skill only apply when the tool can access that vault. Pasted claims work in either tool.
