This is the machinery behind every ECT scorecard on this site: what we measure, what each score means, and how the pieces combine into an overall result.
The pieces
- The General Rubric: five pillars (Radical Transparency, Empowerment & Agency, Discernment & Manipulation Immunity, Holistic Well-being, and Collective Benefit), each scored from 1 to 10 with examples.
- How We Score ECT: how pillar scores roll up into an overall score, and how to weight the pillars by what matters most to you.
- Product-Specific Weighting: how pillar weighting can differ by type of product.
