Transparency reports
This page holds BlackLake’s transparency reports on governance posture, incident history, and platform reliability. The standing rule: if we ship something broken, it goes in the report. If a security issue is found and fixed, it goes in the report. If a design decision trades off one guarantee for another, it goes in the report. And if we miss our own publishing date, that goes here too; see below.
Q1 2026 · Jan to Mar
Q1 2026 transparency report
Covers January through March 2026: API reliability, known issues shipped and subsequently fixed, security posture updates, and the platform’s behaviour under the 2026-05-17 deep-cycle E2E audit.
Honest status (updated 24 July 2026): this report missed its own deadline. Our pledge below says six weeks after quarter end, which was mid-May; it has not shipped, and Q2 has since closed as well. The reason is scale, not secrecy: BlackLake is in early beta with a small footprint, and most of what a report would aggregate is already public in real time on the governed release log (releases, receipts, and incident notes included). The first combined report will cover the full period from January 2026 to its publication date, and this page will not pretend otherwise in the meantime.
Our transparency cadence
- Quarterly reports: one per calendar quarter, published within six weeks of quarter end. This cadence starts with the first published report; as noted above, we have not met it yet and say so here rather than quietly moving the date.
- Incident disclosures: severity-1 incidents are disclosed in the next quarterly report with a full timeline and root cause.
- Security posture: the security posture doc is updated continuously; major changes are noted in the quarterly report.
- Known limitations: honest disclosure of design trade-offs and known gaps, not just incidents. The threat model is the canonical source.
