Internal lane: Regulated document vector store
This lane is reading governed policy rows and ranked candidates from the live database.
Candidates are compared by contextual adequacy. The page avoids claiming one universal best tool when data shape, regulatory posture, team maturity, or buyer standardization determines fit.
Candidate rows are lane-scoped and evidence-gated; fallback references are shown separately.
This lane has a policy contract, but no ranked candidate is eligible to render from the current data source. The system should keep solution tool slots in compare or fallback mode.
These are navigation aids for unresolved slots, not authority to call a tool the best option.
Non-model lanes remain compare-only until coverage audits and hand-reviewed precision show that blocking gates are safe.
The solution may require a customer-standard platform even when it is not globally top-ranked for the lane.
A candidate needs lane-specific evidence before it can move from comparison to public selection.
