PricingSnapshotEverclear FAQ (docs.everclear.org/developers/faqs.md, fetched 30 September 2026): "Protocol fees are charged dynamically depending on the route (combination of asset, origin, destinations). Fees are levied against the amount sent." Gas is paid on top, and an intent that is not matched is discounted each epoch until netted ("discountBPS = (currentEpoch - entryEpoch - 1) * discountPerEpoch"). No fee rate is published on that page. This corrects the previous note: Everclear does charge the sender of an intent.Symbiosis docs, "Symbiosis & Fees" (docs.symbiosis.finance/main-concepts/symbiosis-and-fees.md, fetched 30 September 2026): the user pays source-chain gas - "The user signs and submits this transaction on the source blockchain (where their assets are held) and covers the gas fee for this transaction." - and the gas that Symbiosis relayers spend on the S-chain and the destination chain is withheld from the swapped tokens as a stablecoin-equivalent estimate; the FAQ (docs.symbiosis.finance/faq.md) puts it as "relayers pay for the gas, which is deducted from users swaps". Octopool swap fees and slippage apply on top. No percentage fee is published on either page, so the percentage the previous note carried is not repeated.

Score dimensions
weights sum to 86
The published score is five dimensions, each weighted for the category. "Published criteria" is the criteria block above; the other four are the engine's own terms — availability, friction, trust record, measured data. Each bar is one side's points out of that dimension's maximum; the weight beside the name is its points of the 86-point weighted total. The published criteria above can fill 24 of the block’s 30. A weight marked “constant here” belongs to a dimension every ranked product in the category holds at the same value: it still counts in the total, and it orders nothing here.
