Decision Matrix & Option Comparison

Write the decision, your options and what matters to you. Get the criteria spelled out, a ranking, a recommendation with a confidence level, and the facts that would change the answer.

Quick start

Press Start to see the sample build-or-buy decision. Replace it with your own, or add more decisions that share the same options and criteria.

What you get

• Criteria in your order, with what each one means here
• A ranked list of options with reasons
• A recommendation and how confident it is
• What would flip the call: the facts to check before you commit

Good for

• Vendor and tool choices
• Build-or-buy calls
• Writing up a decision so the team can see the reasoning

Pricing

• $0.03 per decision

You pay only for results that come back. Set a max cost per run in the run options and the run stops cleanly when it hits it. Normal Apify platform usage applies.

Input

Limits

• Only as good as the facts you give it. Thin context gets a lower confidence and a list of what to find out, not a made-up answer.

Run it from code

Same input as the Console sample:

{
  "decisions": [
    "Should our SaaS company build or buy customer support automation?"
  ],
  "options": [
    "Build in-house",
    "Buy a managed platform"
  ],
  "criteria": [
    "Launch speed",
    "Total cost",
    "EU data handling",
    "Maintenance burden"
  ],
  "context": "12-person company; $20k budget; launch in 8 weeks; two engineers; EU customers."
}

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/physealabs~decision-framer/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d @input.json

from apify_client import ApifyClient
items = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN").actor("physealabs/decision-framer").call(run_input={"decisions": ["Should our SaaS company build or buy customer support automation?"], "options": ["Build in-house", "Buy a managed platform"], "criteria": ["Launch speed", "Total cost", "EU data handling", "Maintenance burden"], "context": "12-person company; $20k budget; launch in 8 weeks; two engineers; EU customers."})

It also works from Zapier, Make, n8n and Apify schedules.
