The Complete Manual

The RexaKit Decision Matrix (Grid Evaluation) is a systematic approach to multi-criteria decision analysis. Use it when you have mutually exclusive options and need to evaluate them against conflicting criteria.

1. Core Components

EntityOptions (Rows)

The specific items, products, or paths you are choosing between. You need at least two.

CriteriaFactors (Cols)

The attributes that matter. E.g., for a car: 'Safety', 'Price', 'Style'.

PriorityWeights (1-10)

How much you care about a factor. High weight = huge impact on the final score.

PerformanceRatings (1-10)

How well does Option X perform in Factor Y? Score it objectively.

2. The Logic (The Math)

Weighted ScoreRating × Factor Weight
Raw Total Score∑ (Weighted Scores for all factors)
Max PossibleSum of (10 × each Weight)
Final Choice %(Raw Total / Max Possible) × 100

3. Step-by-Step Execution

01

List Options

Use the sidebar to add your choices. Keep the names short and precise.

02

Set Importance

Assign weights in the sidebar. If Price is your main concern, set it to 10. If Color is secondary, set it to 2.

03

Score Honestly

Fill out the matrix grid. Don't worry about the math; it updates in real-time as you type.

PRO TIP: If two options are very close in score, look at the factor with the highest weight. That is your "tie-breaker" where you should double-check your ratings.
DETAILED CASE STUDY

Real World Example: Comparing Two Laptops

You are choosing between MacBook and Dell XPS. You care most about Performance (Wt: 10) and less about Price (Wt: 5).

FactorWeightRating: MacBookRating: Dell
Performance109 (90 pts)8 (80 pts)
Price56 (30 pts)9 (45 pts)
Total Raw Score120 pts125 pts

Conclusion: Even though the MacBook is faster, the Dell wins because it performs significantly better in your second most important factor (Price) relative to its cost.
