- Find a specific, relevant route.Record the product, pricing model, measurement method and buying channel separately. Do not count a brand, broker and its insurer as three interchangeable providers.
- Read primary sources.Link facts to official product pages, applicable documents or registers. Record observation dates separately from document-effective dates.
- Distinguish levels of verification.A published page is not a completed quote. A company-number match is not verification of FCA permissions. An inaccessible page is not evidence that a business has closed.
- Preserve conflicting statements.Do not silently choose between inconsistent legal identities, document versions or availability claims. Keep the affected assertion unapproved.
- Use the shared registry.Prepare idempotent proposals and bind them to existing canonical entities, brands and products only after reconciliation. This local preview has not connected to the live registry.
- Release with an audit trail.Local review snapshots are immutable and reversible. Production publication requires an approved canonical release and operator sign-offs.
What the status labels mean.
Product information observed
A relevant public information page was accessible during this research. No individual quotation, eligibility test or purchase is implied.
Buying journey unverified
A buying destination could not be confirmed in this review. This may be a limitation of the research tool; it is not a claim that the product has closed.
Closed to new quotes
An official notice states that new-business quotations stopped. The archive still helps visitors who remember the product or have an existing policy.
Coverage and update limits.
Initial evidence-led research set, not a complete market census. Products, brands, brokers and comparison routes are not interchangeable counts. The current set contains seven records, including one closed brand. The research queue includes historical RAC Pay By Mile and additional specialist routes; neither has been padded into the current catalogue.
All source observations in this build are dated 14 October 2026. Scheduled source checks are configured, but the initial direct fetch run failed because this environment could not resolve source domains. A successful scheduled run has not yet been verified. The monitoring snapshot records attempts separately from successful observations.
Guides and editorial review.
The Phase 3 guide collection has source-linked factual statements, labelled original examples, linked directory records and a correction route. Source checks are not human editorial approval. Read the editorial policy and proposed editor responsibilities.
Information-only boundary.
The build has no risk questionnaire, lead capture, quote completion, paid ordering or personalised matching. This does not itself establish a regulatory exemption. FCA perimeter guidance (external website) makes relevant exclusions conditional; the operating entity and actual journey need review before launch.
