Independent evidence · public verification

The public record of technology readiness.

Sandbox Africa publishes auditable technical reviews built from a defined test scope, screenshot evidence, verification checkpoints and an evidence-backed readiness tier. Reviewer identity and programme affiliation are retained internally by default; the public record focuses on what was tested and what Sandbox Africa verified. Capital Outcome Reviews separately record what capital moved and what changed after funding.

How the record works

Evidence is separated from verification.

A public review is not a company profile score or Marketplace badge. It is a dated technical record with clear provenance and a visible publication standard.

01

Contributor record

The reviewer identifies the solution, documents the test environment and scope, uploads captioned screenshots, completes the technical checkpoints and submits a tier rationale. Identity is retained internally for accountability.

02

Sandbox verification

Sandbox Africa checks completeness and evidence, verifies or adjusts checkpoint findings where necessary, and records a separate official publication layer without overwriting the contributor's source submission.

03

Published conclusion

The final record shows the verified tier, supporting evidence and material limitations. Reviewer identity is published only when explicit public attribution has been recorded; earlier-standard reviews remain clearly labelled.

Tier 0 is scored as 0 and Tier 3 as 3. These figures describe only Sandbox Africa's approved review sample and should not be read as a census of African technology companies.

From evidence to market engagement

Test it. Publish the evidence. Qualify what is ready.

The complete evidence standard records what was actually tested and what supports the tier. Technologies that later cross the Marketplace qualification gate can move into commercial discovery without turning the review itself into a sales claim.
