Personality Inventory Information
Our Personality Inventory uses a single set of questions and AI to speculate on conclusions from ten famous models of personality profiling. The AI can recognize patterns within the results to report a unique profile of your personality.
Traditionally, these models have been limited to multiple-choice or rating-scale formats, constraining the depth of information they can gather. With our groundbreaking model, users can choose to type out their responses, allowing for a more nuanced understanding of their personality. The more you write, the better your results.
