FORM INTAKE SCHEMA

FDE Intake Blueprint Specifications

Under the VXS controlled transparency protocol, FDE intake is restricted to macro process parameters. Review the structured field schema below, detailing what we collect, why we collect it, and what we strictly prohibit.

REQUIRED DIAGNOSTIC PARAMETERS Mandatory
Parameter Type Target Scope / Options Diagnostic Purpose
Email Address Email Valid professional contact address. Report routing and verification secure channel.
Your Role Select Founder / Formulator / Consultant / R&D / Other Calibrates report vocabulary and recommendation context.
Product Type Select Functional drink / probiotic drink / powder drink / gummy / bar / other Determines baseline physical state and matrix behavior boundaries.
Current Stage Select Concept / bench / pre-pilot / pilot planned / commercial planned / failed Directly influences diagnostic confidence metrics.
Target Scale Select Bench / under 100L / 100-1000L / 1000-5000L / 5000L+ / unknown Models scaling fluid dynamics and thermodynamic dwell times.
Primary Process Select Cold-fill / Hot-fill / Fermentation / Spray drying / Extrusion / High-shear Establishes physical stressors (T, M, B) mapping anchors.
Main Concern Textarea Stated stability, active decay, phase separation, or processing failures. Grounds analytical modeling on actual physical anomalies.
Intake Consent Checkbox Explicit review protocol verification. Ensures alignment on early-stage batch manual validation.
OPTIONAL COMPATIBILITY SCAN FIELDS Highly Recommended
Parameter Type Target Scope / Options Diagnostic Purpose
Ingredient Count Select 1-5 / 6-10 / 11-20 / 20+ / unknown Estimates chemical interaction and pH conflict probability.
Sensitive System Flags Select Living cultures, heat-sensitive actives, proteins, emulsions, moisture-sensitives Triggers targeted rules for specific sub-system vulnerabilities.
Process Parameters Textarea Temperature range, target pH, target shelf-life, packaging style. Provides physical constraints for thermodynamic and stability drift calculations.
Data Retention Level Checkbox Opt-in to anonymized aggregate pattern logging database. Enables pattern signature deposition for system optimization.
✕ STRICTLY PROHIBITED INTAKE FIELDS

To protect your intellectual property and guarantee legal boundaries, the FDE protocol strictly bans the input of the following items under Phase 0. If any of these parameters are entered into intake forms, they will be scrubbed immediately.

Full proprietary formula
Exact percentage ratios
Supplier identities
Commercial brand names
Contract packager names
Customer list metrics
Proprietary process steps
Unpublished IP patents

## Tally / Typeform Setup Notes

Use the same field order as the static intake page:

1. Contact and role
2. Product snapshot
3. Process and scale
4. Sensitivity flags
5. Main concern
6. Optional process ranges
7. Consent checkboxes

Recommended submit confirmation:
