## FAQ

**How were alternatives to Granola selected?**
Recorded task topics and meaningful shared terms qualify same-type candidates in the same category. Results are ordered by that overlap, then information completeness and a stable identifier. Sponsorship and GitHub stars do not participate. The method can miss suitable tools whose records lack task information.

**Does inclusion mean a tested replacement?**
No. These are catalogue-based research candidates. Check current sources, costs, permissions and deployment requirements, then test your own task. ASE has not run a performance benchmark of this shortlist.
