We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.
This is a fiction/fan codex: entries describe an in-universe canon. Our audits check canon and internal consistency — external fact-checking does not apply the way it does on real-subject codexes.

Eric Matthews — Eric's first appearance is stated as 'Full Disclosure Report: Piecing Together Jigsaw' on the Saw II DVD, but that mockumentary was actually released as a promotional feature for Saw III, not Saw II. The correct first appearance is Saw II (2005).
Eric Matthews — Eric's final appearance alive is listed as Saw IV, but he is also alive in a flashback in Saw V (his corpse appears in the present timeline). The entry already notes his corpse in Saw V, but the 'Final Appearance' stat should reflect that he appears alive in f
Lawrence Gordon — The entry states Lawrence Gordon 'escapes by cutting off his own foot with a shard of tile' and later 'crawled away and was later rescued and recruited by Jigsaw off-screen, as shown in a flashback.' In canon, Gordon cauterizes his stump with a pipe, not a sha
Hoffman — Hoffman did not frame Amanda Young for the murder of Lynn Denlon; Amanda killed Lynn Denlon herself during her test in Saw III, and Hoffman later framed Amanda for other actions, but the murder of Lynn is directly Amanda's act, not a framing.
Hoffman — Hoffman's final trap in Saw 3D was not a modified version of the Reverse Bear Trap; it was a new trap called the 'Hoffman Trap' or 'Garrote Trap', not a Reverse Bear Trap 2.0.
Seth Baxter — Seth Baxter was convicted of murdering Hoffman's sister but was actually innocent; the canon establishes that Baxter was a murderer but not specifically of Hoffman's sister.
Seth Baxter — The opening trap of Saw V is not a flashback to Hoffman's murder of Baxter; it is the actual event of Baxter's death, not a flashback to a murder.
The Bathroom — The revolver is not rigged to a tripwire; it is simply placed in the room with one bullet, and the tape instructs Lawrence to kill Adam by 6:00.
The Pit Trap — Adam does not fall into the pit and is not impaled on spikes in the original film; he remains in the bathroom throughout the movie, and the pit trap is never triggered by either character.
The Pit Trap — The pit trap is not a hidden floorboard mechanism in the bathroom; in the film, the pit is a separate room accessed via a trapdoor in the floor, not triggered by weight or used as an obstacle for the captives, and is shown only as a storage area for Jigsaw's t
The Needle Room — The entry states that by the time of Saw II, Amanda was already an apprentice to John Kramer and helped orchestrate the traps, including the needle pit. In canon, Amanda is not revealed as an apprentice until Saw III, and the needle pit was set up by John Kram
The Needle Room — The entry claims the needle pit trap was orchestrated by Amanda as an apprentice, not set up by John Kramer himself for her solo test. This contradicts canon: John Kramer designed and set up the entire house test, including the needle pit, and Amanda was a par
The Weighted Ball Trap — The entry describes a trap called 'The Weighted Ball Trap' but the details (Reverse Bear Trap, Dr. Lawrence Gordon, Adam Stanheight, bathroom) are actually about the Reverse Bear Trap and the bathroom trap from Saw (2004); there is no widely-known canon trap b
The Weighted Ball Trap — The mechanism described as 'Single light bulb and a saw' is incorrect for the Reverse Bear Trap; the Reverse Bear Trap uses a mechanical timer and a jaw-splitting device, not a light bulb and a saw.
