Maatvia is named for Ma’at, the Egyptian principle of order: truth weighed against a feather, balance kept between what is claimed and what is proven. These are not decoration. They are the rules every screen, sentence and number in the product follows, and this page shows them working rather than describing them.
Every score, list result and summary carries its source, its edition and the time it was read. Wording is never stronger than the evidence: when a list is behind, we say so next to the number instead of hiding it in a footer. Errors say what happened and what to do next.
Risk is stated plainly and weighed against clarity. The scale is our recurring mark because weighing is what the product does. Severity is shown as a word, a letter and a colour, so the weight of an item can be read without relying on colour. Layouts stay even and nothing sits flush against an edge.
One type ramp, one palette, one motion language across this website, the console and the member portal. You should never feel you have entered a different product, and no sentence should need translating from jargon.
Ma’at Lens
How a reading is justifiedFour sources agree; one origin record is still open.
Serious, but the evidence does not support an emergency.
The same figure appears with the same reasoning everywhere.
Source, evidence, interpretation, recommendation, decision.
Sample reading · illustrative figures.
These are the wordings we hold ourselves to. If you find a sentence in the product on the right-hand side of this table, it is a fault and we want to hear about it.
| Situation | What we write | What we never write |
|---|---|---|
| An empty list | No matches found against the current lists. | Nothing here! |
| Something failed | The list could not be loaded. Try again, or check back shortly. | An unspecified error occurred!! |
| Data is behind | Last read three days ago, a refresh is due. | (saying nothing) |
| Something worked | Tariff code 9027.80 attached. | Woo-hoo! Done! |
| Risk | Residual risk 68, above your threshold of 65. | DANGER: HIGH RISK |
These are the same badges the product renders, read from the same single vocabulary, so a state cannot be called one thing here and another thing inside the console. Each carries a word, a letter and a tone.
Every published list we screen against, as loaded right now: who publishes it, the edition we hold, how many records it contains and when we last read it. Counts and dates only, no names are shown on this page.
