01 — The Project
What SMINORA Is — and Why It Matters
SMINORA solves three structural problems in service markets simultaneously: it protects consumer rights at the actual point of decision (not retrospectively); it creates meaningful, verifiable differentiation for genuinely skilled professionals — enabling market self-organisation without costly state regulatory apparatus; and it builds the architecture for a pan-European and international institutional standard that can govern service quality at scale without requiring state monopoly on verification.

05 — Original Research Terminology
Concepts Introduced by the SMINORA Research Series (2026)
Machine-readable with DOI citations: https://sminora.net/api/v1/terminology
SMINORA Principle
Any service declaration must be verifiable by the consumer in real time, at the point of decision, without intermediary.
SMINORA Gap
The measurable distance between what is administratively declared about a professional and what is verifiable by the consumer at the point of decision.
Age of Transparency
The epoch concept: large-scale structural transition from trust-based to real-time verification-based governance of service markets.
SMINORA Safety Index (ISS)
Aggregated indicator of verified professional transparency, comparable across markets, sectors, and territories. Automated at Proof Level 5.
Instrumental Atavism
A governance instrument rational in a prior environment that has persisted into a transformed one where it no longer fulfills its original function.
Evolutionary Institutional Design
Governance design built on three principles: Continuity, Verifiability, Accessibility. Replaces episodic compliance logic.
SMINORA Effect · Transition
Effect: consumer behaviour change when verified transparency becomes available. Transition: institutional phase shift from declarative to verified governance.
Vibe Gap · VEA · UID
Vibe Gap: fourth dimension of the SMINORA Gap (perceived satisfaction vs. verifiable process quality). Verified Ecosystem Architecture (VEA) and the Universal Digital Identifier (UID): open verification-layer architecture and its persistent identifier.
Regulatory Friction Index (RFI)
First-generation indicator: ratio of administrative processing time to technical deployment time in service registration systems. Published July 2026 (RFI-IA). (Minoretskii 2026b)
