Key Insights
Strongest Overall
Flask leads in 4 of 6 dimensions
Mature Python framework with standout maintainability (96, A+) and strong quality (87), documentation (87), and performance (88). Only trails FastAPI in architecture and security.
Surprise Leader
FastAPI tops Architecture and Security
Despite a lower overall score, FastAPI leads both heavyweight dimensions (25% weight each) with 87 in architecture and 85 in security. Modern type hints and Pydantic validation pay off.
Biggest Gap
Documentation ranges from 63 to 87 (24-point spread)
FastAPI's D+ (63) in documentation stands out against Flask's A- (87). Spectra sits in the middle at C+ (73). This is the widest variation across any dimension.
Self-Analysis
Spectra rates itself B+ (86) with strong architecture and documentation
Spectra's self-analysis shows the most even spread across dimensions (73-80), with no standout highs or lows. Architecture (80) and maintainability (80) lead; quality (76) and docs (73) trail.
