One decision. Two clear signals.
What Gallery Verified™ means.
A visible Gallery badge for customers and a machine-readable verification signal for A.I. agents that choose to use Gallery data.
Membership opens the door. Verification earns the signal.
Gallery Verified™ is $5/month or $50/year and includes Discoverable benefits from the start. Payment unlocks eligibility to request and maintain verification; it never buys a passing decision. Free profiles retain public discovery access and baseline machine-readable facts. Additional member benefits are planned.
What we check
The claimant or authorized representative demonstrates approved control of the profile, such as website/domain or business-email control. Selected public facts are checked for reasonable consistency with approved sources. Ownership conflicts and disqualifying risk signals must be resolved under the current versioned Gallery policy. Automated checks may be followed by manual review or requests for more information.
A bounded signal, not an endorsement
The Gallery issues this verification, not an external A.I. provider. It does not guarantee service quality, customer satisfaction, licensing, insurance, legal compliance, financial condition, safety, future performance, or every business claim. It does not guarantee ranking, indexing, placement, recommendations, leads, or sales, or endorsement by CHIMA™, the Gallery, or an A.I. company.
Keeping the signal current
The badge carries a verification date and validity boundary. Annual re-verification is included while eligible. Material ownership, domain, identity, or profile changes may require earlier review. Fraud, abuse, misrepresentation, or unresolved ownership disputes may suspend the signal.
Payment and review stay separate
Requests may be pending, need information, pass, or be declined; a previously issued signal may be suspended or expire. Only a current passing decision displays the badge and machine-readable verified signal. Pending or declined review does not silently cancel or refund membership, and implemented Discoverable benefits remain. Cancellation normally preserves paid access until the paid period ends; then the badge and agent signal expire unless another documented eligibility basis applies.
Your evidence stays private
Public interfaces show only the verification status, label, dates, and explanation link. Private evidence, reviewer notes, risk scores, and contact or security records are not public verification signals.
Verification is separate from customer ratings, organic ranking, sponsorships, boosts, and Spotlight or Showcase selection.
