To vet is to carefully examine or evaluate, checking for such things as accuracy, validity, and authenticity.
Example (as used by Michael Masterson today): “Luckily, [the Bentleys'] bank suggested that they have their business plan vetted. That’s how they met Allen Shapiro, a retired executive with more than 30 years of retail experience.”
