# Reliability.

## What does the pattern do?

- Indicates how confident the system is in its response.

## When should the pattern be used?

- In ‘higher-risk’ contexts, such as legislation, tariffs or finances.
- When a decision is to be made based on the output.

## Recommendation

- Use a form that is well understood: This can be a percentage, a progressive or verbal (‘probable,’ ‘uncertain’).
