The Lab

Instruments for observing cognition.

Empirical tools for measuring how you think. Each instrument isolates a specific cognitive dimension—creativity, communication, pattern recognition—and returns quantified observations without judgment.

How Instruments Work

Isolated Measurement

Each instrument targets a specific cognitive dimension. No omnibus "IQ" claims—just precise observations.

Quantified Output

Results are numerical scores with defined ranges. Comparable across time and populations.

No Judgment

Instruments observe—they don't evaluate. Higher or lower scores indicate difference, not value.
