# QuickRatey

> Independent, AI-curated product comparisons across 20+ categories — electronics, kitchen, home, beauty, health, fitness, automotive, outdoors and more. Every product is scored 0–100 across four pillars: Quality & Performance, Value & Price, User Experience and Brand & Trust. Weights shift per category so scores reflect what actually matters for that product type.

QuickRatey ranks products by composite QuickRatey score, not by paid placement. Outbound retailer links may be affiliate but never influence rank or selection.
