What each event tool is actually for.
EventBlok helps you take an event from first idea to live delivery. Create the sessions, organise speakers and spaces, run the show, and publish an agenda attendees can use. Twelve products, five categories, and one honest answer to each: what is it built around, where is it strong, and where does its scope end. We win on fit, not on attacking other people's work.

Explains the scoring language: `core` (the product is built around it), `some` (present but not the centre), `no` (out of scope). Scores are verified before publication; a competitor is never marked `no` on an unverified capability.
