Why TYPE
A BETTER WAY TO UNDERSTAND WHO YOU ARE — AND WHO YOU NATURALLY CONNECT WITH.
Most personality tests end at the label. TYPE treats the label as the beginning: once we know how you're wired, we can show you the people whose wiring meets yours well — and say plainly why.
The four dimensions
Energy
Outward · Inward
Where your attention naturally goes — outward into people and momentum, or inward into depth and quiet.
Perspective
Grounded · Abstract
How you take in the world — through what is concrete and present, or through patterns and possibility.
Decisions
Logic · Empathy
What settles a hard call for you — the logic of the situation, or the people inside it.
Rhythm
Structured · Fluid
How you like time to feel — planned and resolved, or open and responsive.
The assessment
Sixteen forced-choice questions — four per dimension, with the order of the poles varied so you can't drift into answering the same side every time. There are no sliders and no scales. Your result is deterministic: the same answers always produce the same TYPE.

- Communication20%
Derived from energy and decision style.
- Interests15%
Overlap in what you each said you care about.
- Lifestyle10%

- Goals5%
What each of you says you're looking for.
Nothing is randomised. Where a dimension hasn't been collected yet, it scores as an explicit neutral rather than inventing variation. Each component is stored separately, so the model can be refined as the community grows.
What this is — and isn't
TYPE is our own consumer framework, inspired by four long-studied personality dimensions. It is not an official MBTI® instrument, it does not use proprietary MBTI questions, and it is not a clinical or diagnostic assessment.
Compatibility here is a lens, not a guarantee. A high score means two people are likely to find each other easy to be around; it doesn't decide anything for you. The people worth knowing are still discovered the old way — by talking to them.
