What the score and the light meanCopy Anchor Link

Bilby can score a topic at every check, on a scale set for that topic: a risk from 1 to 5, or the chance a prediction comes true, from 0 to 100%. Each score comes with a one-line reason. A topic has one score at most, and doesn't need one.

Every score shows a traffic light. Red means the worse third of the scale, green the better third and yellow the middle. Which end is worse is set with the score.

A change in score counts as something changing, so Bilby tells you. When the light changes colour, the email's subject starts with the new one, such as "Now red:".

Step 1: Ask for a scoreCopy Anchor Link

Say what to rate when you put the topic on Radar, or later in its chat:

Score the risk to our chip clients from 1 to 5 at every check.

To set it yourself, open the topic's Radar schedule… and switch on Score each check. Then fill in What it rates, the Scale (1 to 5 or 0 to 100%), Which end is worse, and what each end means. Changing the scale later starts the score's history again.

When you ask Bilby to tell you if a prediction comes true, it scores the chance that it does, in percent.

Step 2: See why the score is what it isCopy Anchor Link

On the Radar page, point at a topic's score. Bilby shows its light and value, how it moved, such as "Up from 3/5 (yellow) on Oct 21", its reason and the scale. The card in the topic's chat shows the same reason, with what each colour means on that scale.

Step 3: Put your own scoreCopy Anchor Link

Bilby's score is only its judgement. If you see it differently, press Disagree. You'll find it beside the score on the home page's Your Radar, in the topic's ⋯ menu on the Radar page, and under each point of its chart.

Bilby opens the topic's chat with a message started for you, such as "I disagree with the Risk to Acme's chip clients score of 2/5. I'd score it ". Finish it with your score and your reason, then press Send.

I disagree with the Risk to Acme's chip clients score of 2/5. I'd score it 3, because two of our clients make the equipment the new rules cover.

Bilby records your score straight away and gives its own view in a sentence or two. Your score now shows in place of Bilby's, marked yours, and Bilby's stays beside it. Only that check's score changes. At later checks Bilby keeps your score unless something new moves it, and then says why.

To go back to Bilby's score for a check, choose that point on the chart and press Use Bilby's score, or ask in the chat.

Step 4: See every scored topic over timeCopy Anchor Link

Two places show a score over time:

• One topic. On the Radar page, open the topic's ⋯ menu and choose Score over time. Choose any point to see that check's scores and reasons.
• Every scored topic. Open Discover in the sidebar. If you don't see Discover, go to the home page and scroll down to Explore what's available in Bilby. Choose Timings, then look under Your Radar scores.

Your Radar scores shows each scored topic in the organization you're in as a card, with its latest score and a small line of its history. Press a card to open the full chart. Use in my question adds the score's history to your question, so you can ask, for example, why it went up in October.
