A private, on-device tool to objectively assess difficult people in your life. Using research-backed frameworks like the DSM-5 and Hare PCL-R, identify narcissism, sociopathy, and Machiavellianism before they cause harm.
Hi Product Hunt! š I'm Ralf, the maker of Personality Assessor.
If you've spent any time in the startup world, corporate environments, or just navigating complex relationships, you've probably encountered someone who left you feeling exhausted, manipulated, or questioning your own sanity.
We often throw around words like "narcissist" or "sociopath" casually, but I wanted to know how professionals actually identify these traits. When I dug into the clinical research, I found that psychologists don't guess ā they use highly specific, structured checklists.
So, I built an app to put those frameworks in your pocket.
Personality Assessor is a private, on-device tool that helps you objectively evaluate the behaviour of difficult people in your life. It moves you from emotional frustration to objective clarity.
š§ What's inside:
ā¢
6 Research-Backed Frameworks: Including DSM-5 criteria for Narcissistic and Antisocial Personality Disorders, the Hare Psychopathy Checklist (PCL-R), and Dark Triad Machiavellianism indicators.
ā¢
Objective Scoring: Check off the specific behaviours you consistently observe and get a calculated risk level based on clinical thresholds.
ā¢
Direct Source Links: Every category links directly to the peer-reviewed papers and official psychiatric references it is based on.
ā¢
100% Private: All data is stored locally on your device via SwiftData and syncs securely via your private iCloud. No servers, no tracking.
Why I built this:
I built this because I was tired of the confusion that comes with toxic relationships and office politics. I needed a way to document patterns objectively so I could set boundaries with confidence.
(Disclaimer: This is a lifestyle and professional awareness tool, not a medical device. It does not provide clinical diagnoses.)
I would love to hear your feedback! Have you ever had to navigate a highly manipulative co-founder or boss? How did you handle it?
I'll be here all day answering questions. Thank you! š
