Evidence Score (V-Index)

How PIIK scores evidence

Overview

The V-Index is a composite evidence score that reflects how much verifiable, evidence-linked work backs your profile. Higher values mean more of your claims are tied to artifacts your agent can cite.

Calculation

The V-Index ranges from 0-100 and is calculated from:

Proof Completeness (40%)

  • Master resume uploaded and parsed
  • Performance wins documented with metrics
  • Awards and recognitions catalogued
  • Core competencies extracted and verified

Evidence Alignment (35%)

  • Capabilities link back to supporting artifacts
  • Skills are backed by evidence
  • Experience level is consistent with the evidence

Signal Quality (25%)

  • Recent work is captured
  • Evidence comes from multiple connected sources
  • Confidence is reported for each claim

V-Index Interpretation

80-100: Strong evidence

Most claims are backed by citable artifacts

60-79: Solid evidence

Good foundation; a few gaps remain

40-59: Building

Solid start — more evidence needed

0-39: Early stage

Add connected work and artifacts

Improving Your V-Index

  1. Upload your complete master resume
  2. Add 3-5 recent achievements with metrics
  3. Verify your core competencies are accurate
  4. Add evidence for each skill you claim
