Show HN: AI Stack Selector Tool

A developer has launched an AI Stack Selector Tool on Hacker News that scores AI tools against user constraints using a heuristic fit score, with official brand SVGs from simple-icons for identification. The tool is intended as a starting point for tool selection arguments, not a definitive benchmark.

How to read this. Fit scores are a scoring heuristic, not a benchmark. They encode which constraints rule a tool out and which answers suit it — a starting point for the argument, not the end of it. Brand marks are the official SVGs from the simple-icons project (CC0), inlined into the page — shown nominatively to identify each tool. Microsoft, AWS and Azure marks are not distributed by that project, so those tools keep a lettermark.
