The reader index is a weighted mean of reader submitted axis scores using the published index weights, renormalised over the axes readers have scored. It is never blended into the lab index. How this works.

Score Base44

Your scores feed the reader column only. Submitting an axis again edits your existing score rather than adding a second vote.

Reader scores need an account so one person cannot vote twice. Create a reader account or sign in.

Reader scores are published in a separate reader index column. They never move the measured lab index.

  • The build was fast and the exit was expensive

    Amina Farooqi | 06 Aug 2026

    We shipped an internal tool on it in three days and were very happy for four months. Then we needed to move it into our own network for a compliance reason and discovered how much of the application was platform behaviour rather than code: the role checks, the file handling and the scheduled jobs all lived in the platform, not in anything we could take with us. Rebuilding those took longer than the original build. I am scoring code ownership at thirty, which is harsh on a product that never claimed to be portable, but the axis is asking exactly the question that hurt us.

      This is the one thing I now put in front of every bake off. Not can it build it, but what does leaving cost. Cheap to answer before you start and very expensive afterwards.

      We priced the same exit for a different platform at about six weeks for two engineers. Worth writing that number down somewhere your finance people can see it.

Lab commentary

Our reading of the numbers, kept separate from the reader ratings.

Strong at the parts of the specification that map onto its built in primitives: entities, roles and the admin surface came out quickly and cleanly. The cost is portability. Exported code still depends on the platform runtime, so it scores lowest in the top half on code ownership.

On the measured axes, Base44 is strongest at reliability with a subscore of 84.4 and weakest at speed at 33.4. Because speed carries 7 of the 100 index points, that weakness costs it roughly 4.66 points against a perfect result on that axis alone.

Reader ratings and lab measurements answer different questions. A reader rating carries the thing a harness cannot capture: whether the product was pleasant to work with over weeks, how support behaved, whether the bill matched the plan. The lab index carries the thing an opinion cannot: 45 timed executions of the same specification with the failures counted. Read them side by side and treat a large gap between the two as the interesting signal.

  • Lock in is real

    Julia Novak, Startup founder | 10 Aug 2026

    Loved building with it, then realised migrating away meant a rewrite.

  • Internal tools in a day

    Ravi Menon, Operations manager | 06 Aug 2026

    80

    Roles and admin views came out almost complete. Getting the code out of the platform is the catch.
