FORKS weighs your inputs to surface hidden costs, regret risk, and upside — side by side, not as a single answer.

How scores work
FORKS does not predict your future. It weighs your inputs across areas like money pressure, timeline, risk tolerance, emotional cost, upside, downside, stability, and uncertainty to create a structured side-by-side comparison.
The scores and labels you see are structured reflections based on what you told us — not guaranteed forecasts, professional advice, or statistically validated predictions. They are designed to help you see trade-offs you might miss, not to decide for you.
