The Methodology

Most assessments put you in a box.
We map the terrain.

Standard personality tests compress you into four letters. We measure where you actually fall across 39 independent dimensions — no categories, no bins, no oversimplification.

01

Continuous Variables

No binary “Thinker vs. Feeler.” Every dimension is scored 0–100 — you’re not rounded into a type. The difference between scoring 72 and 73 is preserved, not thrown away.

02

What Makes You Distinctive

When traits that usually go together split apart in you, that’s where the interesting stuff is. We detect these distinctive patterns — they’re often the most revealing part of your profile.

03

The Character Mirror

Your profile compared to 200+ historical figures, fictional characters, and public intellectuals. See who you actually match — and who you’re the polar opposite of.

The 39 Dimensions

Every subsystem of your psychology,
measured independently.

Each dimension is scored 0–100 on a continuous distribution. No rounding into types. No information loss.

The Output

A comprehensive psychological report.

You won’t receive a polite paragraph about being a “creative visionary.” You’ll receive a detailed report showing how every part of your psychology fits together — where you’re extreme, where you’re distinctive, and what your closest matches reveal about you.

Psychological Assessment Pilot

Welcome. Here’s how this works:

  1. Take the assessment — 120 questions on a sliding scale. There are no right or wrong answers; respond based on your genuine tendencies.
  2. Read your personalised report — After you finish, a detailed psychological profile will be generated for you. This may take several minutes.
  3. Give brief feedback — At the end of the report, rate how accurately it describes you and leave any comments.

How scoring works: All 39 dimension scores are 100% deterministic — computed by a fixed mathematical model. Same answers always produce the same scores. No AI is involved in scoring.

How the narrative works: The narrative text in your report is written by AI, based on your algorithmically computed scores. The AI interprets your numbers into readable prose — it does not change what was measured.

The full process takes approximately 1 hour. Your responses are anonymous and stored securely. The test works on mobile, but the report is best viewed on a larger screen.
