      How this works (honest version)

      This is a rule-based recommendation engine — not a machine-learning model. We mapped the six most influential factors (use case, storage, transport, budget, experience, priority) to the kayak category that best fits the majority of buyers in that combination. It's a starting point, not gospel. Edge cases happen, and we tell you when we think you should rent or take a class before buying.
