How to use a matrix template.
- 01List the options
Name the alternatives you are comparing — the rows of the matrix.
- 02Define the criteria
List the evaluation dimensions and assign weights if some criteria matter more than others.
- 03Score each option
Rate each option on each criterion; the AI builds the weighted matrix and totals automatically.
- 04Export for the decision record
Share the matrix link or export it — a decision matrix is an artifact you keep, not just a slide.
Questions about matrix templates
What is a decision matrix?
A grid that scores multiple options against multiple criteria. Each cell holds a score; weighted totals rank the options. It makes the basis of a decision explicit and revisable.
Should I use weighted scores?
Yes, if the criteria are not equally important. Assign weights (e.g., 1–5) to each criterion and the AI multiplies the scores automatically.
Can I use a matrix for feature prioritization?
Yes — list the features as rows and criteria like impact, effort, and strategic fit as columns. Score each feature and sort by weighted total.
