PowerMate alpha

What PowerMate can—and cannot—do.

Check this page when you know the broad design but are unsure whether the current planner is a valid match. The status tells you whether you can plan directly, must read a caveat, can explore only a narrow exemplar, or need a custom analysis.

Verified

Ready for matched use

Reference, independent simulation, tests, Guide explanation, and planner route agree under the stated assumptions.

Qualified

Use with the stated caveat

The path is usable for the displayed contract but relies on an approximation, design limit, or assumption that you must check.

Bounded exemplar

Explore one narrow model

The simulation lab can run the exact analysis it names, but it does not stand in for every mixed, clustered, or longitudinal model.

Queued / planned

No defensible generic N yet

The study still needs an explicit estimand, data-generating process, fitted model, diagnostics, and independent validation.

All planned method families

If your method is not verifiedDo not select the nearest familiar button. Use a matching bounded exemplar, develop a custom model-specific simulation, or consult a statistician. This warning prevents a plausible-looking answer to the wrong question.
