Datascreen

External Data Integrity

Inspect public, vendor, or third-party datasets before they enter AI workflows.

Use this when a team pulls a public dataset hub file, vendor export, storage drop, benchmark refresh, or scraped corpus and needs to know what is actually inside before trusting it.

When this helps

Before outside data becomes internal data.

The team did not create every row, does not fully control upstream documentation, and wants to sample, scan, and review integrity issues before using the dataset.

What Datascreen shows

Integrity issues in the imported dataset.

Datascreen surfaces malformed rows, duplicates, missing fields, source ambiguity, low-value examples, and suspicious instructions with enough context to review the import.

1,800+ datasets audited The Data Provenance Initiative audited more than 1,800 text datasets used in AI workflows.
70%+ license omission The audit observed license omission above 70% on widely used dataset hosting sites.
50%+ license errors The same work reported license error rates above 50%.

Watch walkthrough

Product demo: pull a real public dataset and inspect the sample.

Show a public dataset import, sample the rows, and walk through malformed examples, duplicates, source ambiguity, and rows that should not be trusted without review.

Review depth

What the product needs to make the decision obvious.

01

Import sampling

Review real rows from public, vendor, or third-party sources without pretending the source is clean.

02

Schema checks

Catch empty fields, malformed records, and inconsistent message shapes early.

03

Provenance context

Keep source URL, file, and row metadata available during review.

04

Trust boundary

Make the decision record clear before external data enters the pipeline.

What the team gets
Review queue

A prioritized list of rows and clusters that deserve human review.

Evidence context

The row, source, neighborhood, and reason shown together.

Decision log

A record of what reviewers kept, removed, fixed, or escalated.

Exportable report

A workflow-ready handoff that states what was reviewed and what remains uncertain.
