How we score

We install each tool, run a standardised 90-minute session, and record pricing, feature coverage, platform support, and friction points. Scores are computed by a deterministic rubric in our open-source repo — not editorial gut feel — so the same input data always produces the same scorecard on both sides. Where a vendor does not publish a data point, we mark it as undisclosed rather than guess, and we never accept payment from vendors for placement or ranking.
