Not an IQ promise
Early results are orientative. Percentiles require enough real-world data and careful calibration.
Open cognitive testing · Longitudinal self-tracking · Research-ready data
Measure cognitive performance today. Understand change over time.
Open Cognitive Research is an independent initiative for online cognitive testing, long-term tracking and privacy-aware research data collection.
Results are educational and orientative. They are not a diagnosis and do not replace medical advice.

Why this project exists
A serious alternative to viral IQ quizzes.
Most online tests give a score and stop there. Open Cognitive Research focuses on repeatable cognitive tasks, careful context collection and personal change over time.
The long-term goal is to build a clean, transparent data foundation that may support educational research and, later, responsibly designed collaborations with specialists.
Not a diagnosis
The project can help observe changes, but it does not diagnose Alzheimer’s, dementia or any medical condition.
Built for tracking
The most useful signal is how your results change compared with your own previous baseline.
Core areas
What the first version measures
The MVP is designed around tasks that depend as little as possible on culture, language or general knowledge.
Visual reasoning
Patterns, matrices and figure sequences that test rule discovery.
Working memory
Short tasks that challenge temporary storage and manipulation of information.
Processing speed
Timed tasks where accuracy and response time both matter.
Attention
Tasks that require focus, consistency and resistance to distraction.
Research-ready by design
Useful data, without unnecessary personal data.
Participants can choose whether to save results, receive annual reminders and contribute pseudonymized test data to research. Email is kept logically separate from statistical data.
- Optional account for saved results and annual reminders.
- Separate consent for research use.
- Device, environment and self-reported sleep/stress context.
- Reaction time and category-level scores for longitudinal analysis.
Start simple
Take the short cognitive test prototype.
Use the first test as a baseline. Future versions can compare your results against your own history and, when enough data exists, against appropriate demographic groups.
