Direct answer

An AI claims register should list every important claim, its source, evidence strength, claim type, caveat, owner, review date and publish status. It stops AI-assisted work from turning confident wording into unsupported public claims.

How to use it

  • Create one row per claim.
  • Classify the claim as factual, interpretive, predictive, comparative or promotional.
  • Attach the exact source or proof.
  • Add a caveat where the wording could overstate.
  • Approve, restrict, rewrite or reject the claim.

Example

A row might say: “AI Overviews reward non-commodity content.” Source: Google AI optimisation guide. Caveat: Google says this may influence presence over time; it does not guarantee inclusion.

Caveats and limits

A register is not bureaucracy if it changes publishing decisions. It becomes waste only when no one uses it to remove or qualify risky claims.
