Receptiviti is more than just an IBM Watson Personality Insights alternative. Receptiviti's founder invented the science that made Watson's Personality Insights possible.

 

Quick History of Personality Insights

 

The history of language-based personality insights starts long before IBM launched Watson Personality Insights. The story begins in the 1990s with the seminal work of Receptiviti Co-Founder, Dr. James W. Pennebaker at the University of Texas, who was investigating how analysis of writing could predict mental and physical health, personalities, social behaviours, and cognitive processes. Since those early days, our science has been the basis for thousands of academic publications covering topics such as personality, cognitive behaviour therapy, leadership styles, suicide intervention, deception, and more.
