Summarise this page with AI

The essentials in 30 seconds

  • Advisors add a decision score to client reports as one reproducible number placed beside the recommendation.
  • The partner program offers 3 deliverable modes: white label, co-brand, or EQOS Asia only (EQOS Asia partners page, as of October 2026).
  • Deliverables arrive in 24 to 72 hours depending on the tier ordered (EQOS Asia partners page, as of October 2026).
  • Reseller margin runs from 80% to 90% of the billed analysis.
  • A 30-minute call in Asia hours starts the setup.

A client reads an advisory report to decide, and a clear number beside the recommendation helps the client follow the reasoning. This guide belongs to the branch on decision engine for advisors, and it shows where a decision score fits in a client report, how to present it, and how the reseller flow delivers it, as of October 2026.

Why add a decision score to a client report?

A report persuades when the client can trace each conclusion. A decision score adds a traceable element: a number between 0 and 1 computed on 9 structural dimensions by a deterministic engine, so the same inputs return the same result (EQOS Asia method page, as of October 2026). The client sees the reasoning and the advisor keeps the narrative.

The partners page describes the benefit as immediate differentiation: a verifiable mathematical deliverable that sets the firm apart, perceived by clients as a scientific premium (EQOS Asia partners page, as of October 2026). The score complements the advisor’s judgment and gives the conversation a precise place to start.

Where does a decision score sit inside an advisor report?

4 places work well. The executive summary carries the headline score and the zone, the option comparison shows one score per option, the risk section lists the weak dimensions, and the action plan reuses the 30/60/90 day levers. Each place answers a different reader question, from the overall verdict to the next step.

Keep the advisor’s own analysis in front. The score supports a recommendation and leaves the advice itself to the advisor, so each score appears with one sentence on what it means for this client. A short appendix can describe the 9 dimensions in plain words, with the viability line at 0.618 (EQOS Asia method page, as of October 2026).

How should an advisor explain the decision score to a client?

Use 3 sentences. The first states what was measured: the structural alignment of the client’s situation on 9 dimensions. The second states the result and its zone, for example below or above 0.618. The third names the dimension to work on first. This order keeps the explanation short and ties the number to an action.

Invite questions on the inputs. Because the engine is deterministic, any data scientist with access to the Codex under NDA can recompute a verdict identically (EQOS Asia method page, as of October 2026). An advisor who welcomes that scrutiny builds credibility, since the client can see that the number follows from the data supplied.

Which deliverable mode suits an advisor report?

The partners page offers 3 modes: white label, co-brand, or EQOS Asia only. In white label, the deliverable carries the advisor’s brand alone, which suits a firm that wants one voice in front of the client. Co-brand shows both names and shares the scientific credit, and EQOS Asia only suits a firm that prefers a neutral third-party reading (EQOS Asia partners page, as of October 2026).

The firm invoices the client at its own price. The partners page cites a reseller margin of 80% to 90% on the analysis and a lightweight one-time setup of US$2-5K under a Master Service Agreement and a Service Level Agreement (EQOS Asia partners page, as of October 2026). The mode can differ from one client to the next.

How does the reseller flow of a decision score run from brief to invoice?

The flow has 4 steps. The advisor contacts EQOS Asia for a 30-minute call, signs the setup agreements, sends a secure brief for each client case, and receives the deliverable in 24 to 72 hours depending on the tier ordered. The advisor then invoices the client (EQOS Asia partners page, as of October 2026).

Each case begins with a short secure brief covering scope, available data, and urgency. A Reading at US$358 answers one question in 24 to 48 hours, and a Decision at US$910 models a structural choice in 48 to 72 hours (EQOS Asia pricing grid, as of October 2026). The advisor can therefore add a score to a report within one working week.

Can a decision score support a quarterly client review?

Yes. After a Study, Diagnostic, or Mapping, Sentinel maintains the model monthly, re-measures the 9 dimensions, and sends alerts at detected tipping thresholds. It also holds quarterly review sessions (EQOS Asia pricing grid, as of October 2026). The advisor brings an updated score to each client meeting.

A trend gives the review its story: the score at the last meeting, the score now, and the dimension that moved. The client sees progress against the action plan, and the advisor can show the effect of each lever. Sentinel starts from US$1,100 per month for a simple follow-up, on a 6-month minimum commitment (EQOS Asia pricing grid, as of October 2026).

How does an advisor start adding a decision score?

Start with a single client file. The partners page invites a 30-minute call in Asia hours to identify the right tier and calibrate the setup, and the first tier lets the firm use the score internally to validate a recommendation before delivery (EQOS Asia partners page, as of October 2026). The same call explains how to move to the reseller modes.

Prices for the tiers are listed on the pricing page, and the Λ simulator gives a quick feel for the 9 dimensions, each rated between 0 and 100 (EQOS Asia simulator page, as of October 2026). A firm can try one file in internal mode, review the output with a colleague, and then choose how to present the score to clients.

Frequently asked questions

Where should the decision score appear in a client report?

Place the headline score and its zone in the executive summary, one score per option in the comparison, the weak dimensions in the risk section, and the 30/60/90 day levers in the action plan. Each score comes with one sentence on what it means for this client (EQOS Asia method page, as of October 2026).

Can the report carry the advisor’s own brand?

Yes. The partners page lists 3 modes: white label with the advisor’s brand alone, co-brand with both names, and EQOS Asia only. The advisor invoices the client at its own price and chooses the mode client by client (EQOS Asia partners page, as of October 2026).

How fast does a deliverable arrive?

Deliverables arrive in 24 to 72 hours depending on the tier ordered. A Reading at US$358 answers in 24 to 48 hours, and a Decision at US$910 in 48 to 72 hours (EQOS Asia partners page and pricing grid, as of October 2026). A secure online brief starts each case.

Is the score an AI estimate?

Scores and numerical verdicts come from a deterministic engine, from the Codex alone, so any result can be recomputed identically. Research and drafting around a study are AI-assisted and reviewed by a human before delivery (EQOS Asia method page, as of October 2026).
