# Separate Dominated Project Scenarios from Genuine Budget Tradeoffs — Free

A weighted score can hide a project that is worse on every stated dimension. Expose dominance first, preserve real tradeoffs, and leave public-value judgments with the community.

**Free and complete.** This guide is a standalone free tool — no account, no card, anywhere. The only paid option is one optional extra outcome: $4 one-time. Nothing in the free tier is gated.

## Who it's for

Community groups reviewing comparable project scenarios

## What's free

- one full, unwatermarked dominance review clipboard App execution
- three invented readings and unlimited calculations in the paired article demo
- copy the complete working and boundary; voluntarily share non-sensitive input state

## Optional paid add-on

**$4 one-time.**

- subsequent dominance review clipboard App calculations through a browser-local convenience signal
- boundary-preserving print and row-and-summary CSV of this dominance review clipboard; conditional retyping budget uses only your entered minutes
- five local headline/count/time summaries, separately deletable; full-input draft is separate and not a backup
