Methodology and scale
Each indicator is scored from 0 to 100. The final HLI is the average of eight indicators. Automatic explanations describe the current level and do not certify product quality.
0–24 — basic · 25–49 — beginner · 50–69 — confident · 70–84 — high · 85–100 — master.
HLI is an analytical tool for comparison and self-assessment of handmade products.
