Trust Surface

How impact is estimated

Rived Tracker estimates avoided impact from recovered textile and reuse activity. The numbers are directional, not claims of formal accounting, and the app is explicit about the assumptions behind each calculation.

Core principle

The model uses avoided-impact logic: recovered textile can displace new production when it becomes usable output. That displacement is the benefit we surface on public pages and widgets.

We do not claim that every recovered kilogram offsets a full garment footprint. The result depends on reuse yield, replacement rate, and material mix.

Assumptions

Impact is estimated, not directly measured.
Results depend on the quality and usability of recovered textile.
Material and replacement assumptions materially affect the result.
Public pages should disclose methodology rather than hide it.

Why this page exists

Public profile pages, group pages, and widgets all link back here so users can understand the estimation logic without leaving the app. That keeps the trust story visible while the rest of the migration stays focused on the local data model.
