- CorrectionSqwod Verified scoresWe saidOn 28 product reviews the Sqwod Assessment headline did not match the average of the criteria bars printed under it (largest gap: AG1, headline 72, bars averaging 59). On 5 reviews the Sqwod Score was more than a point off our published 45/40/15 blend.NowEvery Assessment headline now equals the average of its bars, and every Sqwod Score equals 45% crowd + 40% assessment + 15% value. 32 reviews changed; 26 Sqwod Scores moved, most by 1 to 3 points. Largest moves: AG1 66 to 61, Oura Ring Gen3 89 to 86, Whoop 4.0 85 to 82, Loop Quiet 2 82 to 85, Compex SP 8.0 75 to 73, ESN Ultrapure Creatine 85 to 87.WhyThe headline numbers were entered by hand and drifted from the criteria scores beside them. A reader who averages the bars should get the headline back. We fixed the numbers in one pass and the site build now fails if either rule is broken again.→ Read the piece
