Frequently asked questions
Is 'Bot' implying this runs automatically on my design?
No — Heuristic Bot is the product name. You answer the checklist yourself; there's no automated scanning of a design file or screenshot.
Where do these five rules come from?
They're a condensed set drawn from established usability heuristics widely used in UX practice, covering system status, real-world matching, flexibility, minimalism, and error recovery.
What's the difference between 'partial' and 'fail'?
Fail means the principle is essentially absent. Partial means it's present in some places but inconsistent — often the faster fix of the two.
