Most personality tests stop at a familiar profile. Exora translates it into direction: a research-based analysis that links your personality to what you are actually trying to navigate right now.
In about 15 minutes you get a Big Five-based profile in plain language, tied to your challenges, and concrete steps tailored to how you work, not how you “should” be.
To understand personality, you need a stable map. The Five Factor Model (Big Five) is the most research-supported model today, shaped by decades of studies across cultures. The five dimensions (Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Neuroticism) provide the foundation. The real accuracy lives in the 30 facets below the surface. Two people can both be highly extraverted, yet one might be dominant and decisive while the other is warm and sociable. By looking at facets such as "assertiveness" versus "sociability" or "dutifulness" versus "self-discipline," we build a more precise portrait of you and connect your profile to your real situation.
Your personality profile shows your natural tendencies: how you usually think, feel, and act. But it cannot know what you are wrestling with right now, what goals you have, or what situation you are in. That is why we need to hear it from you. Through a few short questions about your challenges and ambitions, we connect your scientific profile to your real world. Two people can share the same Big Five profile and still need completely different guidance depending on what they want to change or develop. When we combine your personality with your current situation, we get insights you can actually use. The next step is to analyze that connection and give you concrete, tailored recommendations.
Once you have completed the personality test and answered the questions about your situation, we analyze how they fit together. We look at which traits can make your specific challenges harder, which strengths you already have that can move you forward, and which strategies suit your profile best. That is how we move from general descriptions to concrete guidance. Instead of just telling you how you "are," we link your traits to what you are experiencing right now: why certain patterns appear, what drives them, and how you can act differently. The result is clear, practical steps tailored to how you operate, so you can start making changes that actually stick.
Exora Manifesto, 2024
You already know a lot about yourself. The problem is rarely a lack of information; it is a lack of guidance. Exora connects your patterns, goals, and obstacles into a clear map of what you should actually try next.
We start in research-based psychology (Big Five) but do not stop at generic descriptions. The focus is on your internal tensions, like high creativity and high caution, or low extraversion and high ambition, and how they affect your daily life.
Ideas flow; the strength lies in choosing which ones deserve action.
Sensitivity that can become a radar, not a hindrance, with the right structure.
High drive, high standards; requires clear priorities to avoid getting stuck in “everything.”
Set aside a quarter of an hour in a calm space. Answer honestly. Afterwards you have a clear profile, an understanding of why certain situations drain you, and a direction for what to do about it.
