The evaluation scorecard runs before the tool exists, and it can say no.
Build-versus-buy gets decided on the scorecard, and the honest verdict is sometimes do not build this. When the score clears, it scopes the smallest version worth shipping, a calculator, a grader, a generator, and designs the output so it pulls the user toward the paid product along a measurable path. Downloadable assets are suede-lead-magnets.
