Weighted Decision Matrix

Score options against weighted criteria and see which choice actually wins.

A weighted decision matrix scores each option against each criterion, multiplies by the criterion's importance, and totals the result. Its value is in making the reasoning explicit rather than producing an objective answer — which is why this tool also shows which single criterion decided the outcome.

Frequently asked questions

Does a decision matrix make the decision objective?

No, and treating it as though it does is the main way it misleads. The weights and scores are judgements; the matrix makes them explicit and comparable, which is genuinely valuable and quite different from making them objective.
