A 5×5 matrix is a prioritization aid, not a substitute for domain-specific safety, cybersecurity, regulatory, engineering, medical, or financial risk methods.
Why this tool is different

Score likelihood and impact, visualize a 5×5 risk matrix, assign owners and mitigations, and compare inherent versus residual risk. The workflow is designed as a repeat-use local workspace rather than a thin one-click page.

Requirements and recommendations

Make the assumptions explicit

  • Define criteria and scales before scoring.
  • Keep source facts separate from preference weights.
  • Export the rationale when the decision needs review or auditability.
How OpenFileTools processes it

Local processing, explicit choices.

The browser stores working data in local component state, calculates summaries on-device, and creates requested downloads locally. OpenFileTools does not receive the working dataset.

Frequently asked

Questions, answered.

Is my data uploaded?

No. Batch 4 planners, decision systems, SEO workbenches and local media composition tools process their working data in this browser tab.

Does this use live external data?

No. Unless a future tool explicitly says otherwise, Batch 4 uses only the values and files you provide.
