What is the DOT Score?
The DOT Score is an in-house evaluation tool, created and adapted over months, to measure and evaluate the experience of digital products and services.
We looked at many UX heuristics to form the basis of the foundation of this score and then applied our expertise to create an inclusive quantifiable score relevant to today’s time.
Each heuristic is weighted and our own algorithm scores each of the six key heuristics out of 100, then gives an overall score. The DOT Score only measures UX, it doesn't factor in other aspects such as price, product selection, offline customer service and so on.
