Provenance Record

Clean, well-structured News piece (483 words, within the News 400-1200 range). Clear section scaffolding (Overview / What We Know / Company Context / What We Don't Know), appropriate technical depth, and a candid 'What We Don't Know' section that flags the absence of price, named customers, deployment volumes, and third-party benchmarks. Every specific is attributed inline to a named outlet.

All four source snapshots fetched at HTTP 200 and read from disk (no re-WebFetch). source-0.html.gz (PRNewswire, ON allowlist) — CONFIRMED: June 1, 2026 SHENZHEN dateline, 'over 130,000 units globally' in 'more than 85 countries and regions', the sector list, the 'Born Intelligent. Transforming Industries. Reimagining Life.' tagline, PuduAgent, dual front-and-rear LiDAR / 360°, autonomous battery swapping / 24/7, and 14 kg (30.9 lbs) / 2 m (6.6 ft) specs. source-1.html.gz (Robotics Business News) — CONFIRMED: PuduFM 1.0 as embodied intelligence foundation model, the verbatim 'industrial-grade evolvable semi-humanoid robot—born from real-world scenarios and evolved through foundation models' quote, LiDAR/360°, millimeter-level force-control, battery swapping/24-7, tagline. source-2.html.gz (The AI Insider) — CONFIRMED: 14 kg / 2 m specs, the 'integrates scenario-driven intelligence, large-model reasoning, and practical business value' quote, 130,000 units / 85 countries, June 3 2026 byline. source-3.html.gz (RoboticsTomorrow) — CONFIRMED: June 1 2026 announcement / dateline, PuduAgent embodied agent architecture, sector list. No fabricated or misattributed specifics found; every direct quote appears verbatim in at least one snapshot.

All numbers (14 kg / 30.9 lbs, 2 m / 6.6 ft, 130,000 units, 85 countries), dates (June 1, 2026 launch), quotes, and product features trace to the snapshots. The article's sector list ('retail, hospitality, manufacturing, real estate and property services, healthcare, education, and public services') is a faithful subset of the source list, which additionally names 'entertainment and sport' — an omission, not a fabrication; nothing was invented. The Tesla/Figure AI framing in the Overview and 'What We Don't Know' is unattributed market context (competitors in the humanoid-robot space), which is legitimate editorial contextualization rather than a sourced factual claim, and is not overstated.

APPROVE. Accurate, neutral, well-sourced, and original. The single automated warning (off-allowlist trade outlets) is not a correctable factual error — there is nothing to inform readers of via a corrections note, since the core claims all trace to the on-allowlist PRNewswire wire release. No corrections record is warranted.
