FactUniswapJupiter
Swap spreadSnapshotUniswap Labs' help-centre article "What are Uniswap Labs' fees?" (read through its Zendesk API on 30 September 2026, updated 23 September 2026) says: "As of December 27, 2025 Uniswap Labs does not charge interface fees." Its table lists the Interface + Wallet interface fee as "0%". What a swapper still pays is the pool's swap fee, per the developers.uniswap.org Fees page (fetched 30 September 2026): "In Uniswap v2, every pool charges a flat 0.30% fee"; "The standard v3 tiers are 0.05%, 0.30%, and 1%" (the same page also tables a 0.01% v3 tier); in v4 "Pool creators can set any fee from 0% to 100%". Since the December 2025 UNIfication vote a protocol fee of about 1/6 of the swap fee is carved out of that pool fee on v2 and select v3 pools; it is not charged on top. Network gas applies.Jupiter Spot routes swaps through Ultra Mode by default ("By default, Spot uses Jupiter Ultra to execute trades."), and Ultra charges a Jupiter commission: the Jupiter Spot Fees page (docs.jup.ag, fetched 30 September 2026) lists "Ultra Mode 0-0.5%", varying by pair and volatility. The Ultra Mode page (same date) tables it: "0%" on stable-to-stable, LST-to-LST and SOL/stable into JUP, JLP or jupSOL; "SOL ↔ Stable 0.02%"; LST to stable "0.05%"; "All other swaps 0.1%"; and "0.5%" for buying or selling tokens within 24h of launch. Manual Mode (Market Swap) is "0%": "Manual swaps do not incur any Jupiter commission". Fees are included in the quote shown before confirming. Solana network fees (not charged by Jupiter) apply, plus Jito tips if chosen in Manual Mode; gasless trades add the SOL gas Jupiter pays to the swap fee, with no margin. Swaps inside the Jupiter Mobile app follow a separate schedule.

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.
