Case studies you can audit
Four fictional companies. Four real runs of the MCOS protocols. Every dollar figure below is actual instrument output, produced by a deterministic run and graded against a written answer key before it was allowed on this page.
Demonstration data. Every company, person, and transcript in these case studies is fictional, and none is a client engagement. Every figure is real output from a reproducible MCOS run, graded against a written answer key before publication.
Coppervale Mechanical Services
The business that runs on five people's memories
A $12M contractor's owner wants to sell. Three structured interviews surface what a buyer would find: every bid over $50K, the bonding line, and the top customer relationship all run through one man.

How these pages are made
1. Answer key first. Each fictional universe ships with a written answer key before any run: what the correct extraction, classification, and math should be.
2. Deterministic run. The transcripts go through the same production pipeline the product runs, in deterministic mode. Same input, same output, every time.
3. Graded before published. A grader checks every claim against the key. Only figures that survive appear here, and each page cites its run of record.
