The Tonebook difference, by the numbers

Three things Tonebook publishes that most competitors don't: a a full sub-season palette designed to treat skin depth and undertone as separate signals, a 50-locale localization footprint, and an honest-accuracy stance (we publish a runner-up season with a confidence delta instead of an inflated single-number “% match” claim). That last point matters — an honest analysis that shows you your runner-up season is more useful than a confident-sounding single percentage.
