Qualified reviewer sign-off, tied to the evidence
The record names the credentialed person who made the call and the evidence they relied on — reviewer-witnessed evidence linkage, not an anonymous system entry.
How it works
Signal. Question. Record. Proof.
Sovel runs one loop everywhere. It finds the operational decisions that lost their reasoning, asks the right person the one question only they can answer, turns the answer into a governed record with a qualified reviewer's sign-off, and shows — for anyone who audits it later — that the gap was closed.
01 · The loop
One loop, end to end.
Step 01Signal
An operational event surfaces: an operator-overridden setpoint, a repeat work order, a shift-handover gap, a PHA recommendation left undisposed. Sovel reads it from your CMMS narrative, shift logs, and handover sources.

Step 02Question
Sovel asks the right person, at the right time, the one question only they can answer: why. Not a survey, not a chatbot — a targeted prompt to the named human who holds the reasoning.
ask: why was the prior basis wrong?
Step 03Record
The answer becomes a governed decision record. A qualified reviewer signs off; the supporting evidence is attached. The AI drafts, the reviewer approves. Nothing becomes governed truth without a human's sign-off.

Step 04Proof
The record is verified in place and the closure is provable: who signed what, when, with what evidence. That's the artifact an auditor reads.

Where Sovel sits
FDD watches the sensor. Sovel watches the reviewer.
02 · Provenance
How a decision becomes defensible.
Every reviewer decision carries an audit chain a PSM, NERC, or Part 11 auditor can read:
A cryptographically verifiable lineage
Each governed record is sealed at the moment of sign-off (PROV-O / Merkle / ALCOA+). You can prove a record hasn't changed since it was attested, and prove when it was attested.
Your data stays yours
You keep your operational data; Sovel keeps the audit chain. We anchor reviewer-decision artifacts — roughly one sealed leaf per signed record — not raw sensor data. This is not blockchain on industrial IoT.
03 · The record
What we hold ourselves to
Built to exceed the bar, not just meet it.
“Who signed what, when, with what evidence” — answered before the auditor asks.
We frame this as audit-evidence quality: when an auditor, a turnover, or a revalidation asks why a decision was made and who was qualified to make it, the answer is already in the record — sealed and dated.
