Source bounded
Every finding comes from a tracked provider page or qualified review source with a visible checked date.
2026 corrected pilot / Checked July 19, 2026Evidence first.
Evidence first.
Awards later.
Seven public criteria turn provider documentation into an inspectable pilot record. A separate market-wide gate now requires independent product testing, exact-lot matching, and verified business identity before any provider can receive a Peptide Local badge.
Scope correction
The seven records came from the existing price dataset. They are a transparency pilot, not a search of the full market and not evidence that any provider is best. Earlier badges are withdrawn.
What makes it different
A score with a visible denominator.
The standard rewards access to evidence, not a provider's claims about itself. Popularity, catalog size, low price, affiliate participation, and review sentiment do not add points.
Hard-gated
A total of 70 is not enough by itself. Public documents must score at least 20 of 25 and traceability at least 12 of 15.
Correctable
Providers can submit a specific source and correction. A documented response can improve the record, but payment or a backlink cannot.
Seven published categories
One hundred possible points.
The category weights are frozen for this release. A provider cannot negotiate a private rubric or substitute testimonials for documents.
Public document access
Can a reader reach current analytical documents without first completing a purchase or private request?
Public, product-linked, and lot-aware routes receive more credit than request-only or general testing claims.Laboratory and method disclosure
Does the public record identify laboratories, methods, or the analytical scope represented by a report?
Named laboratories and methods receive more credit. Seller statements remain claims unless independently established.Lot and report traceability
Can a document be matched to a product, nominal size, lot or batch, and current report date?
Direct lot matching and current report routes receive more credit than catalog-wide or undated documents.Business identity and scope
Does the provider publish a consistent identity, market scope, research-use boundary, and stable source route?
This checks published identity and scope, not licensing, ownership, incorporation, or regulatory approval.Commercial policy clarity
Are shipping charges, thresholds, geographic limits, fulfillment conditions, and material restrictions visible?
Complete public rates and conditions receive more credit than threshold-only or checkout-only information.Review evidence quality
How useful is the visible external review sample for examining recurring service patterns?
The score reflects sample depth and source confidence, never positive sentiment, health outcomes, or product quality claims.Correction responsiveness
Has the provider supplied a specific source correction or documented response under the published policy?
The inaugural baseline awards no points until a dated provider exchange is documented. Paying, linking, or partnering cannot add points.Retained pilot field
Seven records, clearly bounded.
Open any record to inspect the source routes and category findings. Pilot order is not a market rank, recommendation, product-quality score, or badge decision.

Inspect scorecard ↗Badge issuance paused
No active provider badges.
The original badge rule measured documentation access inside a seven-provider price-tracking sample. It did not require a market-wide search or adequate independent test coverage, so the badges have been withdrawn while the stronger qualification gate is applied.
- At least 20 independent tests across five peptides
- No unresolved expected-identity failure in a current lot
- Exact-lot, laboratory, date, quantity, and report matching
- Verified business counterparty and stable official domain
- No payment, affiliate, advertising, or backlink influence
Qualification and correction terms
Recognition cannot buy the method.
No provider is currently authorized to display a Peptide Local badge as current. Archived badge images do not establish current status and cannot be described as a safety, purity, sterility, medical, legal, or regulatory certification.
Peptide Local may revise or withdraw a record when a source disappears, a policy changes, an exact correction is substantiated, or a material mismatch is found. Negative and positive evidence is reviewed under the same rule.
Links are optional. Badge display, a reciprocal link, affiliate participation, advertising, sponsorship, and provider outreach cannot change a score or preserve an expired badge.
