// USAGE PRINCIPLE
Competitor data is a learning source, never an answer source. The bot studies how Planar formats a spec page, how Leyard frames a control-room install, how Diversified writes a project profile. It uses those structural patterns to generate BrightLink content, but it never quotes competitor language verbatim and never attributes competitor work to BrightLink. The leak detector below flags any time a bot response shows phrasing that traces back to a competitor source.

Why the leak detector matters more than the ingestion table. Ingestion is mechanical — schedule scrapers, refresh weekly. The dangerous thing is the moment competitor language appears in a BrightLink answer, even paraphrased. The 3 leaks above are from current bot behavior; the high-severity Planar comparison is exactly the kind of answer that erodes BL's technical credibility if a real customer cross-references it. Every leak is also a Module 1 capture opportunity for Tyson.
