Glossary

The words SPECTRIA uses, defined plainly

Every term below is used somewhere in the product or the reports. The definitions are the product's own words where it has them, the five dimensions are the founder's sentences, verbatim.

Analysis

One recording, measured across words, voice, face and body. This is the word the product uses everywhere, never a “run”, “scan” or “job”.

Source: the product's copy rules, one concept, one word.

Benchmark

The standard your recordings are measured against: the best analysis by the people around you, a real colleague, not a textbook ideal. Until enough people have recorded, it is your own best previous analysis.

Source: the benchmark section on the report and the /benchmark page.

Channel

One of the four measurement streams, words, voice, face or body, each analysed on its own terms, so a weak signal in one never quietly contaminates another.

Source: how-it-works, step 02.

Clarity

How cleanly the message lands.

One of the five dimensions, founder's wording, lib/report.ts.

Cohort

The group your numbers are compared against, the people in your organisation who have measured analyses. A team figure is only ever shown when at least four people could have produced it.

Related: k-anonymity

Source: the four-person floor (MIN_COHORT) enforced in lib/report.ts and the security page's k-anonymity answer.

Confidence

How much of a recording could be measured cleanly, reported as high, medium or low. Low confidence means fewer channels were usable, that is about the recording, not about you.

Source: the quality assessment on the report. (The same word names one of the five dimensions: “The calm that reads as control.”)

Congruence Quotient

One number across everything measured, how well what you said, how you said it, and how you looked while saying it agreed with each other.

Source: the report's own sentence, verbatim.

Conviction

The authority underneath the words.

One of the five dimensions, founder's wording, lib/report.ts.

Coverage

How much of a recording could actually be measured, which channels contributed usable readings, and how many parameters they supported. Anything that could not be measured is recorded as absent, never scored as zero.

Source: the report's coverage indicators and the “like-for-like” note on the benchmark.

Energy

The presence that fills a room.

One of the five dimensions, founder's wording, lib/report.ts.

k-anonymity

The privacy rule behind the cohort floor: a team figure is only shown when at least four people could have produced it, so no one's score can be recovered by subtraction. Below the floor, the figure never even reaches the page's data.

Source: the security page's answer on team visibility.

Like-for-like

Comparisons that only count analyses where all four channels could be measured, a recording where the camera was off is never compared against one where it was on.

Related: Benchmark

Source: the benchmark section's “Like-for-like only” note.

Warmth

How an audience is held.

One of the five dimensions, founder's wording, lib/report.ts.
