Graph Schema

A Schema Built to Be Extended.

Entity types and relationship predicates are data-driven. New types can be added without rewriting the graph, and every type and predicate is documented in one place.

  • entity_id
  • entity_type
  • canonical_name
  • business_record_id
  • geography_id
  • created_at

Versioning

Relationships Change.

Preserve the previous relationship, the new relationship, source, effective date, verification, reason and audit history.

Temporal Graph

  • Offer expired.
  • Person changed role.
  • Marketplace stopped serving a geography.

Claim Object

Claims Are Modeled Before They Become Facts

A conceptual model only. No claim store is built yet — verification decides whether a claim can support a canonical attribute or relationship.
