Why Histometrics keeps live, demo, and seeded coverage as separate states.

Coverage states are one of the most important trust signals in the product. They tell users whether a symbol is fully live, still demo-backed, or already in the tracked backlog while ingestion catches up.

Live

Live means the symbol has current database-backed coverage driving the app right now. It is the strongest state and the most reliable foundation for the full workflow.

Demo and seeded

Demo means the product surface exists and the workflow can be exercised, but some datasets still rely on seeded sample coverage. Seeded means the symbol is tracked and has a reserved path, while ingestion still needs to fill in the datasets.

Why the distinction stays public

Keeping these states explicit helps users and AI agents interpret the site correctly. It is better to show exactly where the product stands than to hide the difference between backlog and live readiness.
