PointRank

PointRank app icon

An iOS decision-making tool that helps you evaluate competing options through structured scoring. Define what matters, score your options, and see a clear ranking — no more agonizing over fuzzy trade-offs.

Role: Developer, Product Manager, Designer


How It Works

  1. Create a project for your decision (business ideas, job offers, apartment hunting)
  2. Define the qualities that matter — profitability, ease, impact, location, whatever applies
  3. Add the options you’re weighing
  4. Score each option against each quality
  5. See your options ranked by total weighted score

Features

  • Weighted qualities so important criteria count more
  • Reversed scoring for criteria where lower is better (cost, risk)
  • Radar charts for visual at-a-glance comparison
  • Home screen widget to keep your top project visible
  • iCloud sync across devices

Background

Inspired by the evaluation framework from The $100 Startup by Chris Guillebeau, which uses a simple scoring matrix to evaluate business ideas across multiple dimensions. PointRank generalizes that approach to any decision where you need to weigh multiple options against defined criteria.
