A score out of 100 for how well reviewed a product is. It rises with positive reviews and with how many there are; negative and mixed reviews take points off.
So a handful of glowing reviews can’t beat a product lots of people like. No sponsored placements.

They liked Vanguard Digital Advisor for holding a simple three-fund portfolio they can keep adding to while it handles rebalancing and tax-loss harvesting for a low fee. The app's withdrawal button did not work, so withdrawals needed the website.

It's how well reviewed Vanguard Digital Advisor is, out of 100. Negative and mixed reviews take points off, and so does having only a few reviews: a product needs plenty of them, compared with the most-reviewed products here, to reach the high 80s and 90s. It's worked out from reviews only, needs at least 5 of them, and updates as new ones come in.
Category: Robo-advisor. Type: Robo-advisor. Fees: $0 advisory fees for the first 90 days; about $15–$16 a year per $10K in an all-index portfolio after that. Minimum: $100 in each Vanguard Brokerage Account to enroll ($5 for eligible 401(k) accounts).
