Weighted Decision Matrix Builder
Compare options against weighted criteria, review normalized rankings and export a reusable decision model.
What Is the Weighted Decision Matrix Builder?
Make tradeoffs visible across up to 12 criteria and 30 options. Criterion weights are normalized, while each option receives a 0–10 benefit score. A live ranking shows weighted totals, preserving insertion order for ties.
How It Works
Name the decision, edit criteria and weights, and rate every option. Higher must always mean better; score low cost rather than raw cost. Add or remove criteria and options, then export project JSON for later editing or CSV/PDF for discussion.
When to Use It
Use when a team needs a transparent, portable planning document with visible assumptions and clear ownership.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I get started?
- Name the decision, edit criteria and weights, and rate every option. Higher must always mean better; score low cost rather than raw cost. Add or remove criteria and options, then export project JSON for later editing or CSV/PDF for discussion.
- What are the important limits?
- Weighted scores reflect your assumptions, not objective certainty. Zero total weight is invalid. The model does not infer cost direction or choose on your behalf. Data is not autosaved; export the editable project before closing.
- Where is my information stored?
- Processing happens in your browser. These workspaces do not upload your inputs or send reports to a server. Session data is not automatically saved; download a project or report before closing. Keep sensitive exports private.
