LANGUAGE-BASED PERSONALITY INSIGHTS
Measure personality traits, temperaments and drives from language, and predict the preferences and behaviours of people who matter to you. Receptiviti maps personalities and drives to popular personality frameworks like the Big Five Personality Model.
Predictive and Informative Personality Models
Unlike traditional personality assessments, Receptiviti's Language-Based Personality Insights doesn't require subjects to complete a questionnaire. Receptiviti analyzes text-based language from voice, email, messaging systems, transcribed video, engagement surveys, earnings call transcripts, bots, blogs, forum posts, tweets and more.
Personality Profiles
Personality traits and scores are ideal inputs into machine learning models for predicting behaviours, informing business decisions by comparing and contrasting results of different individuals or groups, gathering customer intelligence, evaluating candidates and employees, optimizing customer interactions, call centre agent matching, and more.
Drives and Motivations
Understand what is motivating a person's behaviour, whether they are driven by the need for achievement and self actualization, domination, reward, avoidance of risk or by engaging in risk-seeking behaviour.
