Vendor Lock-In Risk

Explainer

Evaluate long-term platform lock-in exposure and identify mitigation strategies before dependency risk compounds.

Why This Model Exists

Vendor lock-in risk is usually discussed late, after architecture coupling and contract terms are already in place.

This analyzer helps teams assess lock-in drivers early, so platform choices can be balanced with long-term optionality and migration realism.
