Internal replication score
EasyFeasibility of a useful internal substitute built with Claude (or similar), the same data access, and light agent logic — not rebuilding the whole product.

Missing factor rows use heuristics from wrapper scores. Editorial heuristic, not investment advice.
Recreate the workflow inside your org.
Internal build
Build it yourself
Same code model + web preview + Supabase connectors — but you own the prompts and iteration loop.
Internal use only. Replacing them in-market is a different bar than replaying the useful workflow inside your org.
