How Tikgu decides

A short walk-through of the decision engine — the questions we ask, the data we check, and the language we use to explain it.

01 / STEP

We translate your need

Five short questions about your daily life become a structured profile — budget, priority, frustrations, urgency, brand openness, and country.

02 / STEP

We score the catalog

A deterministic engine ranks every device against your profile across budget fit, use-case fit, regret risk, and local availability.

03 / STEP

We explain the shortlist

Top Pick, Best Value, Safe Choice, and Stretch Pick — each with why it fits, the tradeoffs, and when to skip.

04 / STEP

You stay in control

Save, compare, watchlist a price, ask a follow-up, or come back when it's time to upgrade. No spec sheets required.
