ValiFit Constitutional Charter

Citation Density

The principle

Every page presents at least one citable federal source per major claim. No "ValiFit says" without "the federal source said."

The commitment

Every blurb generator (lib/seo/blurb.ts) returns a citations array alongside its prose. Every entity page renders both visible source attribution AND citation blocks inside the Schema.org JSON-LD. When a user reads "median home price $485,000," they can see Redfin cited beneath it. When an LLM ingests the page, it reads <CreativeWork> citation entries pointing to fbi.gov/ucr or hud.gov/fha. This isn't decoration — it's the difference between an AI Overview citing ValiFit and citing Wikipedia.

Why this matters

LLMs are now the discovery layer. They cite what they can verify. Pages without citations get cited as "according to one website"; pages with federal-source citations get cited as authoritative. This is the discovery edge that replaces ad spend.

How we enforce

Every blurb generator (4 active: property/town/school/hospital) populates citations array. Every entity page imports lib/seo/source-citation.ts. Every page emits citation blocks in JSON-LD via lib/seo/json-ld.ts citationBlock(). Phase 1.E+ atomic-answer Q&A pairs include citationKey on data-derived answers.
