Proof

Proof is a forensic analytics tool that identifies red-flag signals in public SEC filings before significant corporate collapses. It focuses on surfacing specific financial warning signs, such as discrepancies between cash flow and reported profit, fragile balance sheets, and revenue growth patterns that outpace receivables. The platform emphasizes that its analyses are deterministic and reproducible, relying on mathematical checks rather than predictive modeling or chatbot-driven speculation.

The tool allows users to run these forensic checks on the stocks they own, offering a way to assess potential risks in their portfolios. It also provides a weekly email briefing that applies the same forensic analysis to a different sector each week. Proof's engine has been demonstrated on historical cases, including companies like Carvana, Bed Bath & Beyond, Peloton, Wirecard, and SVB, showing that warning signals were present in filings before publicized failures.

Proof is informational only and does not provide investment advice. It sources its data from public SEC filings and market data providers, and users are cautioned that the forensic signals indicate probability rather than certainty. The service is available for free, with no credit card required, and is accessible to both individual investors and those who manage money for others, such as advisors and platforms.
