How the score works

Each capability carries a weight, and the weights add up to 100. A plan earns a capability's weight when its company says the plan includes it. The things that decide whether an analysis is useful (front and side measurements, the full result, rescans, oral posture and speed) carry the most weight. Extras like plans and simulations carry the least.

Only automated tools are scored. Services where people do the analysis by hand are left out, because they aren't comparable on speed or rescans. We build Shastra.
