Context
Green-building certification knowledge lives in scattered manuals, addenda streams, and partly paywalled libraries. Consultants and AI tools alike need a corpus they can actually trust: every claim cited to a primary source, every access boundary stated honestly rather than guessed around.
What we built
Three verified knowledge bases, one each for the LEED, EDGE, and BREEAM certification standards, built to a shared, repeatable harvest method. Each is a source-cited wiki covering the standard's credits or measures, process, forms, and tooling. Where material sits behind a paywall, the boundary is recorded per source instead of papered over. The build also surfaced real corrections to claims circulating in the industry, including a wrong registration deadline repeated across secondary sources.
The measured result
383wiki pages across the three standards, grounded in 126 registered sources
Every claim cited to primary sources; paywall boundaries recorded per source
The method proved repeatable across standards: three corpora in four days
