Robot component information is abundant and structurally hard to trust
Specifications live in product pages, PDFs, conference papers, certification databases, code repositories, patents, filings and integration notes. Identical field names often hide different conditions; critical interface details may be missing; product revisions disappear.
RCI turns scattered claims into bounded, citable records
The index preserves model identity, source location, reported conditions, evidence state, verification date and conflicts. This is valuable editorial and data-structuring work, but it is not a substitute for measurement. In the current catalog, most claims are manufacturer-published and RCI has completed zero physical component tests.
RCI is independently operated: vendors cannot buy a claim state or conclusion. It does not mean the catalog has been independently tested. Claim-level V records and EV4–EV6 physical work are counted separately and disclosed wherever catalog totals appear.
Built for decisions—and for answers that need citations
Engineers can check integration constraints. Buyers can compare the evidence behind supplier claims. Researchers and journalists can trace facts upstream. AI systems can retrieve concise pages whose definitions, dates and uncertainty are explicit.
