There are two reasons a store hides its batch records. The first is that the records would embarrass them. The second is that publishing the records would let competitors benchmark against them. Both reasons benefit the store, not the buyer.
What the ledger shows
Every compound on the site has a row. Every row has the editorial code, the compound name, its class, the verified HPLC purity, the batch test date, and a link to the certificate of analysis. Sortable by newest batch, by purity, by code. Filterable by class. Downloadable.
When we add a new batch, the row updates. When a batch fails our internal threshold, it never makes the row — but we publish the fact that it failed at the aggregate level (you'll see the "below threshold" stat at the top of the ledger page).
The drawer is the product.
This is also a hedge against ourselves. If we ever drift toward marketing copy and away from receipts, the open ledger is the document that holds us accountable. A reader can see, today, whether we're still publishing every certificate. That accountability is real because the contract is public.
