Six criteria, every listing, one table.
No single tool covers everything. Most teams combine a durable engine or workspace with an execution gate and an evidence store. Use the table to see where the gaps are.

Tap a mark, or focus it and press Enter, for its explanation. Open a listing for sources. “Not claimed” means the vendor does not document it or we have not reviewed it yet — not that it is impossible.
