Every test result, traceable to how it was produced.

Capture the full provenance of each result as part of the workflow: the method, the operator, the instrument, and the sample, all in one record.

§ 01 · How it works

One run, end to end.

Kora captures provenance on every test result as part of the workflow: the method and its version, the operator, the instrument, and the sample or batch context are recorded into a hash-chained, replayable record, so any result can be traced to exactly how it was produced.

  1. Method

    The test starts

    A sample enters the released method version, with the operator and instrument known to the workflow.

  2. Capture

    Provenance is recorded

    Each result lands with its method version, operator, instrument, and sample or batch context.

  3. QA

    QA sees the whole picture

    Review happens with the full provenance in view, not a bare number in a spreadsheet.

  4. Record

    Traceable for good

    The result and its provenance become one append-only entry, comparable across instruments and sites.

Any number can be traced to exactly how it was produced. Hash-chained, replayable.

§ 02 · The approach

Test data provenance

What you get

  • Provenance captured as the test runs

  • A result you can trace

  • Results comparable across instruments

01

Context recorded at the source

Provenance is captured when the test runs, not stitched together afterwards from exports and memory.

02

Traceable to method and sample

Each result links to the method version and the specimen or batch, so a question about any number has an answer rather than a guess.

03

Comparable across instruments and labs

Because every result carries the same structured provenance, results line up across machines, operators, and sites.

§ 03 · FAQ

Questions, answered.

What teams ask when they evaluate Kora for this problem.

For each result, the method and its version, the operator, the instrument, the sample or batch context, and the QA decisions, all recorded into a hash-chained, replayable record at the moment the test runs.

The standard expects results to be traceable to how they were produced. Kora captures that traceability as part of execution, so it is available per result rather than reconstructed for an assessment.

Yes. Results from the test systems and LIMS you already run feed one governed workflow with a common provenance record, so they are comparable rather than siloed.

You open the record instead of reconstructing it. Each result carries the method version, operator, instrument, and sample context it was produced with, captured into the hash-chained record when the test ran, so an investigation starts from evidence rather than recollection.
§ 04 · Next step

Bring one disputed result.

In a demo, bring a result you had to defend. We will show how the workflow captures method, operator, instrument, and sample context at execution, and the record that answers the question next time.
