Evidence Base

Evidence Behind the Intelligence

SHIOS makes its evidence visible so predictions can be examined rather than simply trusted. As of 2026-10-20, the system has analyzed 43,564 real documents and 361,499 evidence records from primary sources including GitHub activity, actual job postings, and news feeds. The page below also clearly shows what SHIOS does not yet cover, making the scope, sources, and limitations of the research transparent.

How this is measured

Documents break down as 33,158 Open-Source Repositories, 6,094 Job Postings, 3,996 News & Articles, 315 External Benchmarks, primarily sourced from GitHub repositories, LinkedIn job alerts (email), News & article feeds, Job board RSS feeds, usajobs, CB Insights newsletter (external benchmark), Revelio Labs RPLS (external benchmark), manual_paste — each source identified by its reliability and role in the intelligence model.

By source

Reliability, with a stated basis

GitHub repositorieshighprimary source262,752 records · 33,158 docs

First-party developer activity from the GitHub API. Leading indicator, not a hiring signal.

LinkedIn job alerts (email)highprimary source83,895 records · 4,901 docs

First-party job alerts delivered to the operator's inbox. Narrow by construction.

Publisher-controlled feeds. Timely, but headline-led and not first-party hiring data.

Job board RSS feedshighprimary source3,147 records · 687 docs

Real job postings from public RSS feeds (Indeed, LinkedIn). No API key required.

Coverage gap

Source types this system does not read

Research PapersWe don't yet read academic research databases like Google Scholar or PubMed. Academic citations are not included in these trends.
Company Career PagesWe don't yet pull directly from company websites or job application systems (like Greenhouse or Workday). Only the connected job feeds are read.
Government DataWe don't yet include official labour statistics from sources like the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. Government employment data is not reflected here.
SEC FilingsWe don't yet read company financial filings. Hiring plans mentioned in earnings reports or 10-K filings are not captured.
User Uploaded DocumentsThere is no way to upload your own documents yet. Only the configured data sources are read automatically.

These are listed rather than hidden. Showing them as empty categories would imply coverage that does not exist; each one is a collector still to be built.
