NextMeasure accuracy on a blind labeled corpus and run a real PDF end to end.

Overview

Aletheion helps reviewers examine an authorized document against a finite source corpus they supply. It compares the text locally, records extraction details, offsets and hashes in a reviewable evidence package, and marks every stage it could not run as unavailable instead of guessing. It does not certify plagiarism, decide who wrote a document or present an AI-authorship score. In the Canessa System Labs governance design, Aletheion holds the provenance and forensics role.

Python 3.10+macOS PDFKitOptional model adapters (no models bundled)

Locate shared language

Exact and conservative near-lexical comparison against the authorized corpus, with fingerprint matching in the core engine as candidate leads.

Evidence you can inspect

Extraction details, token and offset records and local hashes, saved so a reviewer can reproduce every check.

Honest uncertainty

Stages that did not run stay unavailable or unassessed. Descriptive stylometry is never presented as an AI detector.

Local and reproducible

Python on your machine; PDF reading through macOS PDFKit. Documents are never uploaded and corpora are never fetched.

Evidence, never verdicts.

Everything runs locally against an authorized corpus you supply. Aletheion reports what it found and where, and leaves interpretation to people.

Aletheion analysis pipeline: a document and a supplied corpus are read locally, compared with exact and conservative near-lexical matching, with fingerprint candidates as leads and descriptive stylometry that is not a classifier, and reported as evidence with offsets and pages.
