PROMETHEE Cloud

A transparent, web-based laboratory for Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, developed in cooperation with the Chair of Production and Operations Management at the University of Duisburg-Essen. Apply the peer-reviewed PROMETHEE methodology with full sensitivity analysis, GAIA planes, and in-depth preference flow inspection — no installation required.

Start now Research & Publications
01  /  Web

Fully web-based

Access decision models from any device. No external software, no manual updates, no installation overhead.

02  /  Sensitivity

Advanced sensitivity

Walking weights, GAIA planes, and stability intervals to stress-test your rankings under varying preferences.

03  /  Flow

Flow analysis

Pinpoint exactly how each criterion contributes to the net preference flow of every alternative.

Sensitivity analysis dashboard showing walking weights

Validate with sensitivity analysis

Decision robustness is not optional. Explore walking weights, Monte-Carlo simulations, and GAIA planes to ensure your conclusions hold under varying preference scenarios.

PROMETHEE flow analysis breakdown by criterion

Decompose the preference flow

Understand why an alternative ranks higher. Our in-depth PROMETHEE flow analysis breaks down uni-, in-, out-, and net-flows, criterion by criterion.
