Risk classification Updated 2026-08-28

How do I know a risk classification from Maditon is correct?

You check it against the law, and Maditon is built so you can. Every classification names the article it rests on and quotes the passage from Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 word for word, with the full source one click away. A separate verification pass then re-checks each conclusion against the retrieved text and reports any claim it could not support, alongside a confidence score.

Three mechanisms, and they are visible in the product rather than promised in marketing copy.

The citation quotes the law, not just its number. A reference like “Annex III” is not checkable without a second tab. Maditon shows the sentence itself, retrieved from the regulation corpus, beside the conclusion it produced — with the full source available in one click and a control to flag the citation if you think it is wrong. Flagged citations are reviewed.

A verification pass grades the answer. After classification, a second pass checks each conclusion back against the retrieved legal text. It emits a confidence score and an explicit list of claims it could not support. When confidence falls below threshold, or a citation cannot be grounded, the result is marked as requiring expert review rather than shown as settled.

Nothing counts until a person accepts it. The classification stays a draft until a named member of your team accepts it, and the acceptance is recorded with who and when.

A tool that is never uncertain is not more reliable than one that admits doubt — it has only hidden the parts you needed to look at.
