Understanding Confidence Scores

Each category score includes a confidence percentage indicating data completeness:

High confidence (80-100%): Abundant data available, score is highly reliable

Medium confidence (50-79%): Moderate data, score is directionally accurate

Low confidence (below 50%): Limited data, score should be used cautiously
