Methodology Center

Every flagship index and framework published by InsuranceQuoteToolkit has a documented methodology — versioned, weighted, and openly described. The list below is the active set.

Active methodologies

Versioning and changelog

Methodologies follow semantic versioning. Major changes require a documented rationale and a published changelog. Active versions are listed on each methodology page.

Independence and review

All methodologies are developed and reviewed within the Institute. No methodology is influenced by carriers, advertisers, or affiliate partners.

Documented inputs

Every published score is reproducible from the documented inputs. Internal scoring uses the same logic as the user-facing engines — no hidden adjustments.
