Providers behind the unexplained flags
We cross-reference the overprice flags the AI could not justify against the providers that receive them, to see whether one provider or one buyer concentrates many anomalies. Not an accusation — a place to start looking.

How it's built
A flag is 'unexplained' when the unit price paid extremely exceeds the usual range for the same item and a second AI review (Gemini) found no legitimate reason. Here we group them by provider and by buyer. Recomputed every 24 hours.
Overprice is an estimate: (price paid − top of the usual range) × quantity, brought to today's pesos — foreign currency is converted at the contract month's rate, then inflation-adjusted via the Unidad Indexada, so years and currencies compare on one figure.
There are legitimate explanations: urgent purchases, different specifications under the same catalogue code, or items misclassified at the source.
