What this test tells you
What is measured
Both of you rate the same five short items, and those ratings are read as the five personality traits psychologists call the Big Five: extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, openness and neuroticism. Those five traits are the scientific core of the analysis. The name is for display only; gender, birth year, blood type and star sign are optional. Birth year feeds the statistical look at age gaps, blood type and star sign are cultural reference items, and the test still works with every one of them left blank. Nothing you type is sent to a server — the whole analysis runs inside your browser.
What the result looks like
When you submit the form, the page shows an overall rank for the two of you, on a scale that runs from SSS down to G, with a one-line summary. Below it you get a chart with both profiles drawn over each other and a score for every trait, so you can see at a glance where you resemble each other and where you differ. Four readings follow: a trait-by-trait analysis, advice for building the relationship, a communication guide, and the strengths and challenges of this particular pairing. Everything appears on this same page. You can also create a share link; it opens a summary of the rank and trait differences, while the full readings stay on the device where you took the test.
Basis and limits
The analysis draws on peer-reviewed psychological research and public statistics, which describe tendencies across groups of people rather than predictions about one couple. A high rank is not a promise that a relationship will work, and a low one does not mean it cannot. Treat the result as a starting point for looking at your relationship together. See our methodology for the reasoning behind the result, take the personality test if you want to measure just yourself, and browse the articles and glossary for background on personality and relationships.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is this compatibility test based on?
Scores draw on the Big Five personality model, peer-reviewed research such as the Malouff et al. meta-analysis (19 samples, 3,848 participants), and public statistics on age gaps. See the methodology page for details.
How long does the test take?
About 2-3 minutes. You rate ten short personality items (five for each partner) on a five-point scale; name, gender, birth year, blood type, and zodiac sign are all optional.
Is my data stored anywhere?
Not on our servers. The entire analysis runs in your browser, and running it sends none of your input to our servers. Your input is saved only in your browser (on this device) so you do not have to re-enter it on a return visit, and you can delete it at any time with the Reset button on the form. If you create a share link for your result, the result data is included in the link URL.
Do blood type and zodiac signs affect the result?
They are optional reference items included for cultural context. Large-scale surveys have found no statistically significant link between blood type and personality, and the scientific core of this assessment is the Big Five. You can run the test without entering them.
How reliable are the results?
The results are reference information based on group-level statistical tendencies reported in psychological research. They cannot predict or guarantee the outcome of any individual relationship, so treat them as a starting point for conversation.
Is the test free? Do I need an account?
Completely free, with no signup or email required. You can retake it as many times as you like.
