Editorial Council

The people who set the rules.

The Editorial Council reviews methodology, sets recognition criteria, and oversees AI-assisted patient content under California SB 1120 human-in-the-loop requirements.

Who serves on the Council

A panel of licensed US dentists

Decades of combined clinical experience across general, restorative, periodontal, and pediatric practice.

The Editorial Council is a panel of licensed dentists who define the recognition methodology, review AI-assisted patient information for accuracy and tone, and sign off on material changes to the Verified Performance Score. Members rotate periodically; appointments require an active US dental license and a published clinical track record.

The Council is convened and operated by Levi AI Holdings LLC. Members serve in an advisory and editorial capacity; nothing on this site constitutes a clinician–patient relationship.

What the Council does

Defines and versions the methodology. The recognition criteria, the nine axes, the subspecialty clinical-grading taxonomy, and the VPS formula. All changes are public and announced 30 days in advance.

Reviews AI-assisted patient content. Under SB 1120, AI output that reaches a patient passes Editorial Council review against tone, accuracy, and the "information, not diagnosis" framing rule.

Adjudicates tier disputes. Practitioners can appeal a tier assignment by requesting the audit trail. The Council reviews disputes and either confirms, adjusts, or removes the tier.

Holds the line on independence. No paid placement, no advertising-as-quality-signal, no punishment tiers. Recognition is positive-only.
