In 15–20 minutes of AI dialogue, discover how you argue, make decisions and which career profiles match your thinking style. Free, anonymous, browser-based.

(Optimised for desktop – the analysis requires longer text input.)

Instructions

  1. Click the button to copy the prompt.
  2. Open Claude, Gemini or ChatGPT. Use a subscription model if possible – Claude is recommended.
  3. Paste the copied prompt with CTRL + V and send it.
  4. Follow the AI's instructions until you receive the completion code.
  5. Note that a prompt may NOT be executed if you provide it as a file upload. For example, Claude will refuse in that case. Use CTRL + V instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is CogniPass about?

CogniPass conducts a structured dialogue with you and analyses how you argue, make decisions and respond to contradictions. It evaluates cognitive markers such as argumentative consistency, thinking style and stress resilience – not factual knowledge or speed.

At the end you receive a personal profile indicating which career profiles match your thinking style.

Who is CogniPass for?

For anyone who wants to better understand themselves – whether in a job application context, at a career crossroads, or simply out of curiosity. No prior knowledge is required; the test is equally suitable for career starters and experienced professionals.

Do I need to answer honestly?

Answering tactically does not work reliably. CogniPass monitors the consistency of your argumentative chain across all rounds in the background. Anyone who evades, stays superficial or answers contradictorily will not reach sufficient data density – the system will then withhold the final analysis and flag the issue.

The result is only as precise as the substance of your answers.

Can I read my result later, or is it gone when I close the window?

The result appears at the end of the dialogue directly in the chat window of the AI service. It is not saved automatically – once you close the window or the session ends, it is gone.

Recommendation: copy the result into a text document or take a screenshot before closing.

What happens if the dialogue breaks off or I stop midway?

There is no progress saving. If the session is interrupted or the connection drops, the conversation history is lost and the test would need to be started from scratch.

Only start the test when you have 15–20 uninterrupted minutes available.

How long does the test take?

Allow at least 15 minutes. The duration does not depend on a fixed time, but on when the system has collected sufficient data – typically after 10 to 20 conversation rounds.

The more substantive your answers, the sooner the required data density is reached.

Which AI model should I use?

Claude, Gemini and ChatGPT are all supported. Results vary by model:

Claude delivers the most precise analyses and is the most intellectually demanding – a subscription is recommended, as the free version is heavily limited.
Gemini (free) is a solid alternative with good quality.
ChatGPT works without registration but tends to require more rounds for a complete result.

What is the completion code?

At the end of the test the AI generates a 21-character code. This code contains anonymised technical metadata: the model used, the analysis density reached, the timestamp and the country of origin.

The code contains no personal data and is used solely for quality assurance. You can submit it together with your feedback via the form on this page.

Is the result scientifically validated?

No – not yet. CogniPass is in development and testing. The underlying methodology is plausible and theoretically grounded, but formal scientific validation (e.g. through independent studies or recognised standards) has not yet taken place.

The result should be understood as an orientating prompt for reflection, not as a certified assessment.

What data is collected?

For quality assurance purposes, the country of origin is determined via IP and encoded in the completion code. No further data is stored by this website.

The dialogue itself takes place exclusively in your browser with the AI service you have chosen. What you enter there is subject to the privacy policy of the respective provider (Claude, Gemini, ChatGPT) – not this website.

Can I retake the test?

Yes. There is no restriction on retakes. Bear in mind that a second run with the same model will produce similar results if you answer similarly – the system responds to your actual answering behaviour, not to the point in time.

Which language should I use?

The language you express yourself most naturally in. The system adapts accordingly. Answering in English produces an English analysis; answering in German produces a German one. Mixed language is possible but may slightly affect the consistency evaluation.
