Final approved version and approval evidence:

CHECK BEFORE REPORTING
- Subtract timestamps for wall-clock durations; do not add overlapping intervals.
- Sum each person's active work separately. Two people working together for four minutes contribute eight person-minutes.
- Split interrupted work into active intervals. Do not count waiting as labor.
- Do not sum simultaneous processing runs and label the result wall-clock time.
- Include failed attempts and retries in the process record.
- A missing approval timestamp is unknown, not zero.
- Report the number approved, still open and abandoned at the cutoff.
- State exclusions such as research before an accepted brief.
- Keep approval separate from publishing and campaign results.

This blank record contains no assumed production times, industry benchmark or Aitoma performance claim.
