Meet Grader, our open assessment platform
Grader measures personality, skills, and interests. Here's a full tour of what it does, how it works, and the kind of results you'll get.
Grader, operated by Terumiu, is an open assessment platform anyone can try with ease. In this post, we'll give you a full tour of what Grader does and the experience that awaits.
What's an assessment, anyway?
Put simply, it's a way to visualize your tendencies by answering a series of questions.
Personality, thinking habits, where your interests lean, the skills you're strong at — Grader gently sketches the things that are hard to see, from the answers you give. Rather than labeling you like a fortune teller, we aim for something you can use as a mirror for looking at yourself anew.
Three steps to your results
Using it is wonderfully simple.
| Step | What happens |
|---|---|
| 1 | Pick an assessment by category or difficulty |
| 2 | Answer anywhere from a few to a few dozen questions |
| 3 | Review your visualized score and explanation — sign in to save and share |
From quick ones that finish in a handful of questions to in-depth ones worth sitting with, choose based on your mood and your goal.
Results, in a score and an explanation
The moment you finish, your results appear.
- Overall score — a single indicator that captures your tendency at a glance
- Per-trait radar — strengths and balance, visualized from many angles
- Type and explanation — your tendencies, put into words
What matters isn't a high score, but the realization: "Ah, so this is how I tend to be." Your results are material for thinking about the next step.
The same experience, in many languages
Grader supports Japanese, English, and more. When the language changes, the quality of the designed experience stays the same — so people across countries and regions can share the same assessments.
Here's how you might use it
- When you want an objective view of your personality and strengths
- When you'd like a hint for where to learn or grow
- When you want to deepen mutual understanding in a team or community
