Every product earns its score on the bench. Demos do not count.
Each tool in a category runs the same set of real tasks, so scores compare like for like.
We weight quality of results, responsiveness, and value, then convert to a single score out of 10.
When a major version lands, we run the bench again. Rankings move when the products do.
