Living, not static.

Static directories die. Vendor APIs are probed every 6 hours. Documentation diffs trigger re-grading. Evidence is cryptographically signed. The grade today is not the grade tomorrow - and we keep the receipts.

Domain-aware grading.

A FinOps tool isn't compared to a security tool. Every tool is graded only against the standard items relevant to what it claims to do. Cross-domain grading is corrupt. Contextual grading is the only kind that earns trust.

Evidence over reviews.

Anyone can rate. Not everyone can prove. Verified evidence carries weight. Vendor claims carry less. Anonymous opinions barely move the needle. The standard tells you exactly what proof looks like.

Vendors, not victims.

Vendors aren't graded behind their backs. They claim profiles, post roadmaps, respond to gaps, dispute findings, and get a public Responsiveness score. The bad ones go silent. The good ones compete. The market sorts itself.
