The phrase shows up in press releases and pricing pages. It sounds rigorous. Most of the time it means whatever the vendor wants it to mean.  Verification has a precise technical meaning: a third party can check the record without trusting anyone involved. There is no middle ground, and marketing copy lives in the middle ground.  Five questions that cut through it, in order:  1. Can a third party verify the record with zero trust in you? 2. What exactly does verification prove? (One sentence, no adjectives.) 3. Is the format open or proprietary? 4. Does verification survive you disappearing? 5. Who captures the record: the agent or the execution layer?  A vendor with real verification answers all five crisply. A vendor with a dashboard starts hedging around question two.  Full piece: https://rambo-zambo.hashnode.dev/5-questions-to-ask-any-agent-verification-vendor  And the dare at the end stands for everyone: do not take anyone's word for it.
