The Appraisal · a public, permanent record

Predictions, graded in public.

Astrology's oldest credibility problem is that nobody keeps score. We do — in the discipline K. N. Rao's school demanded of astrologers, made tamper-evident with cryptography. Every prediction is pre-registered on a hash chain before its window opens, graded against confirmed outcomes, and scored against random chance. The result is published here, flattering or not.

Tamper-evident, by construction

Each prediction is content-hashed and linked into an append-only chain — H(previous link ‖ prediction). Alter, reorder, or back-date any record and every later link breaks. The current chain head is a cryptographic commitment to the entire ledger:

How a prediction is graded

1 · Pre-registered

The engine's deterministic house-domain prediction for a chart's running Vimśottarī period is written to the ledger before the period's window — hash-chained so it cannot be edited or back-dated afterwards.

2 · Outcome confirmed

When the window closes, the chart's owner reports which life-domains real events actually touched. No outcome, no grade — unresolved predictions stay visibly open.

3 · Scored against chance

The headline metric is lift: how much better the engine did than a random predictor of the same width. Predicting many domains is held to a proportionally higher bar; predicting all twelve counts for nothing.

Methodology — in the engine's own words

Both paragraphs above are rendered verbatim from the public /track-record/accuracy response — the same payload anyone can fetch. Privacy: the ledger stores an anonymized subject digest, the predicted domains, the window, and the hashes — never birth data, names, or the chart.
