Score derivation
QuicklyVPN
Under the Default (evidence-weighted) weighting, QuicklyVPN scores 9.3 on the 53% of our methodology we hold evidence for, provably between 4.98 (every unmeasured dimension at its worst) and 9.33 (every one at its published maximum).
provably between 4.98 and 9.33
Averaging only what we measured would have given 9.4, which is above this provider's provable maximum of 9.33. The headline is held at the maximum; the extra 0.07 was credit the evidence does not support.
Weighting: Default (evidence-weighted). Weights are allocated toward what this site independently verifies. Speed and streaming are vendor-claimed rather than measured here, so they carry roughly half the weight the industry standard assigns them; that weight moves to privacy, transparency and server authenticity, all of which are checked against primary documents or our own probe network.
How the headline is summed

| Speed | 0.07 | ≤8.5 | 0.000 | 0.595 |
| Device compatibility | 0.05 | 9.17 | 0.458 | 0.458 |
| Usability | 0.04 | ≤10.0 | 0.000 | 0.400 |
| Torrenting | 0.03 | 8.00 | 0.240 | 0.240 |

| Totals | 1.00 | 4.977 | 9.327 |
Floor 4.977 is the value column summed; potential 9.327 credits each unscored dimension at its ceiling instead. Renormalising the floor over the 53% that scored gives 9.39, held at or below the potential to publish 9.3.
Renormalisation over-credited by 0.07: the renormalised mean 9.4 sits above the provable maximum 9.33, so the headline is clamped down into the interval rather than printed as earned.

Reading the derivation
- Measured
- We produced this number ourselves and can reproduce it.
- Documented
- Read out of a primary document: a privacy policy, an audit report, or source code.
- Vendor-claimed
- Asserted by the provider. We have not independently verified it, and the score is capped accordingly.
- No evidence
- We found nothing to score. The dimension is excluded from the weighted mean rather than counted as zero.
A ✓ is a rule we checked that found nothing wrong, for a no-logs provider that is the point, not an absence of news. A “not disclosed” line is a negative we scored and cited; a “not assessed” line is our own gap, which lowers coverage but costs the provider nothing. Every score here is a published-formula reading of the published evidence.
