The full answer
A vendor-reported claim is a statement made by the company that sells a product about its own product. It is a lead to check, not a finding, and this site always labels it as vendor-reported.
An independently measured result, by contrast, is produced under a documented, repeatable protocol by someone independent of the vendor, with the conditions, product version and date recorded. It is the strongest evidence class used here.
