Approach

Rank by intent, not popularity.

A customer-facing help center has different needs than an internal wiki. kbpick separates recommendations by buyer job.

Tradeoffs

Benefits are paired with limits.

Reviews include pros and cons so teams can spot fit problems before committing to migration work.

Verification

Claims stay modest.

Unsupported claims, awards, customer logos, and compliance statements are not added unless sourced.
