CogniProfile IQ test reviewed from its own pages: price, terms, what is missing

0 The short answer

CogniProfile is a low friction online IQ test whose payment screen code states a 1.99 dollar charge for a 7 day trial and then 20 dollars a month until cancelled, while its public pages document its timing, terms and data use but not its norms or its reliability. The amounts come from the text of the site's payment screen code, read as text on October 6, 2026, and not from a rendered screen. Its test page showed 30 items and a 40 minute countdown, its terms say subscriptions renew automatically and that refunds are handled case by case at its discretion, and Trustpilot showed 914 reviews and a 4.3 score, split between 77 percent five star and 14 percent one star ratings. We sell a competing assessment, so every claim below is dated and linked.

1 What Is CogniProfile, and Who Operates It?

CogniProfile presents itself as a platform for IQ, EQ and personality tests, and none of its public legal pages names the company that runs it. The home page is titled CogniProfile, with the tagline "Scientifically Designed IQ & Personality Assessment", and its footer reads "© Copyright CogniProfile 2026". The terms of service and the privacy policy, both marked "Last Updated: October 25, 2025", use only the word CogniProfile for the contracting party. Neither gives a company name, a registration number, a street address or a country of registration. The terms say they are governed by "the laws of the United States" without naming a state, and that disputes "shall be resolved through binding arbitration", without naming an arbitration body or a place.

The contact page lists four email addresses, for support, press, schools and recruitment, and states a response time of 24 to 48 hours on business days, Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM EST. It lists no postal address and no telephone number. Trustpilot's page for the business, which is titled "Cognitive Profile", shows the location as "U.A.E." and the profile as "Claimed profile • Dec 2025". That is a third party listing, and it is the only location indication we found.

None of this proves anything about the quality of the test. It does limit what a buyer can check. A reader who wants to know who holds the payment relationship, which law applies to a dispute or where the data is processed has to ask by email, because the answers are not on the pages. The terms add that payments are processed through Stripe, and the privacy policy names Stripe and OpenAI as service providers, which later sections return to.

This page covers only the site at cogniprofile.com, and nothing here applies to products with similar names.

For orientation inside the market, the page on IQ test apps explains how app based products differ from browser products, and the review of RIOT IQ and the review of Innerly apply the same method to two other brands, so a reader can compare the amount of documentation each one publishes.

2 What Does the CogniProfile Home Page Promise?

The home page makes strong claims about accuracy and accreditation, and none of them is accompanied on the page by a source, a sample or a date. The home page opened on October 6, 2026 with a banner reading "The average IQ in Panama is 87. Discover yours now." The page gave no source for that figure, and the banner may be tailored to the visitor's location, which we did not confirm. How country averages are built, and why they differ across sources, is the subject of the page on average IQ by country. The claims below are quoted from the home page as rendered, and the right hand column states what we could and could not find.

Two contrasts are worth setting side by side. The home page says the test is "the most accurate available", while section 7.1 of the terms says results should not be considered "Absolute measures of intelligence or personality", "Predictors of future success or behavior" or "Substitutes for professional evaluation". Both statements can be true of the same product, because a marketing line and a legal disclaimer serve different purposes, but a reader who relies only on the first would form a stronger belief than the second supports. The word "accredited" is the other contrast. A claim of accreditation is informative only if the accrediting body and the date are named, and they are not.

The labels deserve a note on terminology. In the Cattell-Horn-Carroll framework that most modern batteries use, which McGrew (2009) describes as the consensus psychometric model of intelligence, abilities carry names such as fluid reasoning (Gf), comprehension knowledge (Gc), quantitative knowledge (Gq), visual processing (Gv) and short term working memory (Gwm). "Pattern recognition" and "learning efficiency" are not terms of that taxonomy. Whether any of the 30 items measures a memory ability, for example, cannot be decided from the home page, and the page on the CHC model explains why naming the ability matters when two tests are compared. In the next section we describe the one thing about the test that its own page does show.

3 What Is in the CogniProfile IQ Test, and How Long Does It Take?

The test page showed 30 items and a countdown that began at 40 minutes, which is a short timed test with about 80 seconds per item, and nothing public says what the items measure. When we opened the test page on October 6, 2026, its text consisted of a progress counter reading "1/30", a clock reading "39:59" and a "Next" button. We did not answer any item and we did not see any report, so the items themselves are not described or reproduced here, and the page we saw was the entry to the test, not a result.

The two figures give a design that is easy to characterize in general terms. Thirty items in 40 minutes is 80 seconds per item on average (our arithmetic), far less total time than a full battery takes. The page on how long an IQ test takes lists times by instrument, and the page on why IQ tests are timed explains what a clock adds to a score. A single 40 minute sitting can estimate the broad abilities that its items sample, and it cannot estimate abilities that its items do not sample. A reader who sees one number at the end should ask which abilities fed it.

The home page offers three labels (numerical, pattern recognition and spatial) and later mentions memory, logical reasoning and learning efficiency. If the items are mostly figural puzzles, which we could not confirm, the score would lean toward fluid reasoning (Gf) and visual processing (Gv), and it would say little about vocabulary and general knowledge (Gc), working memory (Gwm) or processing speed (Gs). That is a statement about what a test of this type could cover, not a finding about CogniProfile. The page on what IQ measures and the page on cognitive domains show how much a full scale score depends on which domains enter it.

The site also advertises other tests. The home page mentions EQ, ADHD and autism assessments, and the terms mention personality assessments. We did not open them, they are not IQ tests, and we make no statement about them beyond noting that the terms disclaim any medical or psychological diagnosis. No test taken on a public website can diagnose a condition, and the page on professional versus online IQ tests explains the difference between a screening style estimate and an assessment given by a qualified examiner.

4 How Much Does CogniProfile Cost, and When Do You Find Out?

The text of CogniProfile's payment screen code, read on October 6, 2026, states 1.99 dollars due today for a 7 day trial and then 20 dollars a month until cancelled, but no page open to a visitor shows that price before the test. We found the amounts in a public script file that the home page loads, read as text and not on a rendered screen, because we did not register, pay or answer items. The code pairs a line labeled "Due today" with 1.99 dollars and a line labeled "Then, after your 7-day trial" with 20.00 dollars per month, and a sentence says that unless the user cancels before the trial ends, the subscription "continues" at 20.00 dollars per month "until cancelled", followed by "Cancel anytime from Settings." A heading in the same code reads "Unlock your full IQ report". The code writes the amounts with dollar signs, and this page writes them as dollars.

This is a statement about the text, not about a screen we saw. A payment screen can word, order and emphasize these lines differently, and an offer can be changed in the code at any time. The home page, the terms and the refund policy show no price: the terms say "All prices are in USD and subject to change with notice" and "We reserve the right to modify pricing at any time", and they give no amount. The address cogniprofile.com/pricing returned a "404: This page could not be found." page, and so did cogniprofile.com/features, although the footer of the pages we opened lists "Features" among its links. We also opened cogniprofile.com/signup/test, which sent us back to the home page without a session.

Reviewers on Trustpilot describe the charge. A one star review dated August 15, 2026, from a user shown as ML in France, says in its entirety that you will be charged 20 dollars a month without realizing it, and a one star review by Max dated August 17, 2026 reads only "Hidden subscription". Those are the reviewers' statements, and we did not verify either charge, but the 20 dollar figure matches the renewal in the payment screen code, which is the amount the 12 month table below uses. What the public pages establish about timing is narrower: a person deciding whether to spend 40 minutes on the test cannot learn the price from the home page, the terms, the refund policy or any address we tried, and the most common themes among the one star reviews, covered below, concern that moment.

What a buyer should do is simple. Before entering a card, look at the payment screen and write down the amount due today, the amount due after any trial, the renewal interval and the steps to cancel. If the screen shows none of these, that is an answer. The page on how much an IQ test costs places prices across the market, and the page on paid IQ tests and billing models explains why a recurring charge changes the total cost even when the first charge is small.

5 What Do CogniProfile's Terms Say About Renewal, Cancellation and Refunds?

The terms say that subscriptions renew automatically, that the user is responsible for cancelling, and that refunds are discretionary, with no stated deadline and no stated cancellation steps. The wording below is quoted from section 4 of the terms of service (last updated October 25, 2025) and from the refund policy, both read on October 6, 2026.

Several points stand out for a buyer. The terms refer to "subscriptions" but never state that any CogniProfile product is a subscription, never give an interval and never give an amount, so the terms alone do not tell a reader what they would be agreeing to, and the interval and amount appear in the payment screen code instead. Cancelling is described in the terms as the user's responsibility with no instructions. The payment screen code adds the words "Cancel anytime from Settings", which points to an account area that we could not open, so we cannot describe the steps. The refund policy page is a contact page and describes a process, not a right. A case by case policy means the buyer's protection is whatever support decides, which is a weaker protection than a stated window.

The terms also state a minimum age of 13 and say that users under 18 "should have parental or guardian consent". They say the service is provided "as is" and "as available". Section 6.3 says test results belong to the user and that the company "may use anonymized, aggregated data for research and service improvement purposes". Their relevance is that they define what the company owes the user, and the terms do not promise accuracy, a report format or a retained result.

For comparison, other reviews on this site apply the same reading to other providers with renewing charges. The review of Test-IQ.org covers its price and subscription, and the review of Cerebrum covers its price and terms. The review of IQ Test Academy and the review of Brainable read two more brands the same way. A reader who opens several will see how much the wording of cancellation and refund terms varies.

6 What Do Trustpilot Reviewers Report About CogniProfile?

Trustpilot shows a high average rating built from two opposite groups, and the one star group writes almost entirely about payment and results delivery, not about the score. On October 6, 2026 the Trustpilot page for cogniprofile.com, titled "Cognitive Profile", listed 914 reviews and a TrustScore of 4.3, with 77 percent five star, 7 percent four star, under 1 percent three star, under 1 percent two star and 14 percent one star ratings. The page states "914 reviews in the last 12 months", shows "Claimed profile • Dec 2025", says the company replied to 2 percent of negative reviews, and says the company "invites their customers to review, whether positive or negative". It also states that Trustpilot does not fact check reviews.

This shape shows two groups of reviewers with little in between, and it is worth reading before the average. A 4.3 does not describe the typical experience. It means that about eight in ten reviewers were satisfied and about one in seven was not, according to the page. Trustpilot also shows a summary labeled as created with AI that says reviewers "overwhelmingly had a great experience", and a list of topics people mention most, which puts payment and price next to user experience and product. We treat that summary as a description of the page, not as a finding.

We read the first page of the one star filter, which showed 20 reviews dated August 15 to September 26, 2026, and the first page of the five star filter, which showed 20 reviews dated September 18 to October 4, 2026. The counts below are ours, they overlap because many reviews mention more than one point, and they describe one page of each filter, not all 914 reviews.

The five star page reads differently. Reviewers describe the test as fun, easy to navigate, quick and well made. Cory A. B., on September 28, 2026, wrote that results were delivered quickly. Sean called it a good quality legitimate IQ test, and Rami wrote that the results were good and accurate. Those are opinions without a stated basis, and a reviewer's own score cannot be checked against anything on the page. Most five star reviews on the page are one or two lines long. Kevin Martin, on September 23, 2026, gave five stars with the words "Doing this to get my results lol", which is consistent with the review offer described in the next section.

Two readings are fair. On one, the product delivers a pleasant, fast interface and many people are satisfied. On the other, a meaningful minority felt that the order of events, a 40 minute test, then an email, then a payment, was not explained at the start. The reviews do not choose between those readings, and both can be true. What they tell a prospective buyer is where friction is reported, and the cheapest protection is to find the price and the cancellation route before starting. Ratings of any product are samples of people who chose to write, and the page on whether online IQ tests are accurate explains why satisfaction with a result and accuracy of a result are different questions.

7 Can You Get CogniProfile Results Free for a Review?

The text of CogniProfile's payment screen code offers results free in exchange for a 5 star Trustpilot review, which Trustpilot's guidelines for businesses list as a practice not allowed, and reviewers describe the offer and, in some cases, results that did not arrive. In the same public script file that holds the price, read as text on October 6, 2026 and not as a rendered screen, one block reads "Or get your results", then "free", then "by leaving us a 5 star review and then sending us the link", and offers a link labeled "Write a review on Trustpilot". A second block says "To unlock your free results, email us at:" with the support address, and adds that the user should include a link to the Trustpilot review and that the site will "send your results entirely free within 24 hours". We did not see the rendered screen, and the home page, the terms and the refund policy do not mention the offer. Reviewers describe the same offer. The clearest is DP, in a review dated August 15, 2026, which reproduces text the reviewer says appeared on the website, inviting the reader to email support with a link to the review to receive results free within 24 hours. The same reviewer writes that no results arrived after three follow ups over a week. Others describe being told to leave five stars, including Glee, who on September 23, 2026 wrote that the site told them to give five stars to get results free, and DONOT WANT, who wrote that the site asks users to pay or write a review for the results.

Not every reviewer describes a bad outcome. Rio Bravo, in a review dated May 13, 2026 that Trustpilot features in its summary, wrote that they liked the option to write a review to see their score. Stephanie Reed, on June 19, 2026, wrote that she could not fully review the site without seeing her score. These show that some users met a route to results that involves writing a review, and that some regarded it as acceptable. They do not show how many users see the offer, whether it appears for everyone, or how often results are sent.

Trustpilot's own rules are clear on the general question. Its guidelines for businesses, version 7.3 dated September 2026, list among practices a business should avoid that it should not offer incentives in connection with writing reviews, including "discounts, promo codes, prize draw entries, refunds, freebies, or any other benefit connected with your business for leaving a review". They also list suggesting "that reviewers only leave positive reviews", with the example "If you like us, please leave us a 5-star review". The offer text in the payment screen code asks for a 5 star review, and the guidelines name incentives and a request for positive reviews, with a 5-star example, among the practices to avoid. Whether the offer is shown to every user, how many users take it up and how often results arrive are questions of fact that we could not settle. To the extent that users take it up, part of the five star rating would come from people who reviewed in order to receive a result. That would bear on how much weight the 4.3 can carry, not on how good the test is.

We state this carefully. A rating inflated by an incentive does not make a product dishonest, and Trustpilot, not a competitor, decides what to do about its own rules. For a buyer the point is practical: an average from a review site that the company itself solicits is a weaker guide than it looks, and the one star text is more informative than the average. The page on accurate IQ tests lists the evidence that matters more than any rating.

8 What Is a CogniProfile IQ Score Based On?

No page we could open states the group that CogniProfile scores are compared with, the sample size, the date of data collection, the reliability of the score or the error around it. A norm referenced IQ score is a statement about standing relative to a defined reference group. Without the group, a 100 has no stated meaning, and without a reliability figure there is no stated size of error. The home page uses the phrase "intelligent sampling" and its banner quotes a national average, but neither describes the reference group for the test. The page on how IQ scores are normed explains how a norm group is built, and the page on the standard deviation of 15 explains the shape of the scale.

The Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing (AERA, APA and NCME, 2014), the joint standards of three professional associations, are the common reference for what a score's user is entitled to know. The site of the Standards describes them as guidance on testing, shows the 2014 edition as the current one and notes that a revision is under way. In that framework validity belongs to an interpretation of scores for a stated use and rests on evidence, and the evidence a user needs includes the norms, the reliability and the standard error of measurement. A publisher can meet that expectation in a technical manual or any equivalent public document. CogniProfile's pages list none.

An absence of documentation is not proof of an absence of work. The company may hold data and analyses that it has not published, and a test can be fun or useful for rough self knowledge without a manual. The honest summary is that a visitor cannot check. The terms lower the stakes themselves by stating that results are not absolute measures of intelligence or substitutes for professional evaluation, and the terms are the document the visitor accepts. A marketing claim of being "the most accurate available" is not the evidence the Standards describe.

What would a reader want to see? A short list serves to compare any two online tests, CogniProfile included. The reference group and how it was recruited. The date of the data. The number of people in it. A reliability coefficient and the error band it implies, for each score reported. Evidence that the score relates to other measures of the same ability. A statement of what the score should not be used for. The page on reliability and validity shows how each item is used, and the page comparing free and validated IQ tests turns them into a checklist. ACIS documents its own scores in a technical manual, which this page does not quote, and a reader should put the same questions to ACIS and to every other provider.

A second limit concerns the number itself. A composite built from one kind of item can be reliable and still narrow. In the CHC framework described by McGrew (2009), intelligence tests are organized by broad abilities, and a score from a short test of one or two of them is not interchangeable with a score from a battery that samples six. The page on what an IQ score means describes how to read a composite, and the page on IQ scores and percentiles shows why a score is meaningful only alongside the group it is referenced to.

9 What Does CogniProfile Do With Your Data?

The privacy policy says the site collects your email, test results, IP address and geolocation, shares data with Stripe and OpenAI, and does not sell personal information. The privacy policy, last updated October 25, 2025, lists personal information collected when you register, take tests or pay, including name and email address, payment information processed through Stripe, test results and assessment data, profile information and support history. It lists automatically collected information including "IP address and geolocation data", browser type, device information, usage data and cookies. It says "We do not sell your personal information", and names service providers: Stripe "for payment processing" and OpenAI "for AI-powered analysis". The terms list "AI-powered insights and recommendations" among the services.

Several points follow. The policy lists OpenAI "for AI-powered analysis", so a buyer may reasonably ask whether test responses reach it, and the policy does not say what is sent or whether that provider stores it. It says data may be transferred to other countries, with unspecified "appropriate safeguards". It lists marketing communications "with your consent" and gives rights of access, correction, deletion, portability, opt out and withdrawal of consent, all by email to support@cogniprofile.com. Its retention rule is "as long as necessary", with no period. The policy is silent on the company's identity and country, as noted above, so a reader cannot tell which data protection law applies in practice.

A reviewer worry is therefore consistent with the documents rather than proven by them. Steve Harrington, in a one star review dated August 16, 2026, called the site a data farmer, and Phil A. warned against giving a good email. Those are opinions, and the policy says the data is not sold. What is documented is that an email address is requested at the end of the test, according to reviewers, and that marketing messages are covered by consent language. A buyer who prefers not to share a main address can use a separate one, which is a general precaution for any free to start service. ACIS has its own privacy policy, and the same questions apply to it.

10 How Much Does CogniProfile Cost Over 12 Months, and Who Does It Fit?

Built from the payment screen code, a year of unbroken renewals at CogniProfile comes to 241.99 dollars by our arithmetic, against 15, 30 or 50 dollars one time for ACIS, but a user who cancels inside the 7 day trial pays 1.99 dollars. The table uses the text of the payment screen code read on October 6, 2026 (1.99 dollars due today for a 7 day trial, then 20.00 dollars per month until cancelled), not a rendered screen, and the 20 dollars a month that one Trustpilot reviewer reported is consistent with it. The sums are our arithmetic and assume that the first 20 dollar charge falls when the trial ends, that one further charge follows each month and that nothing else is billed. The ACIS prices were read on the ACIS home page on October 6, 2026 and may change.

Two cautions apply. The table does not say what a buyer will be charged, because it rests on code text and not on a rendered screen, and an offer can change. It also does not say a buyer would be charged for 12 months: the same text says the user may cancel, and a user who cancels in time stops paying. The ACIS forms are one time payments with no subscription, so nothing renews. A buyer should compare the first column with the amounts on the screen in front of them. The page on how much an IQ test costs compares prices across the market, and the ranking of online IQ tests covers products that include free routes.

The situations below set out fit, using only documented differences.

A reader who wants to explore several questionnaires over a short period and who will cancel on time may find a renewing arrangement reasonable, if the screen states it clearly. A reader who wants one IQ result with documented norms is better served by a product that states its price first and publishes its documentation, which is a statement about fit and not about intent.

The last table lists what cannot be stated from public pages, which is as important as what can.

11 Do Retakes and Unsupervised Testing Change an Online IQ Score?

Taking the same cognitive test again raises scores on average, and unsupervised online testing is associated with somewhat higher scores than supervised testing, so a result should be read with its conditions attached. We did not see whether CogniProfile lets a user repeat the test, so this section is general and applies to every online product, ACIS included.

On retakes, Hausknecht and colleagues (2007) meta-analyzed 50 studies of practice effects on cognitive ability tests, 107 samples with 134,436 participants, and reported an adjusted overall effect size of .26. They found larger effects when practice was accompanied by coaching and when identical forms were used. Scharfen, Peters and Holling (2018) later combined 174 samples from 122 studies, with 153,185 participants in all, and found significant retest effects and no further gains after the third administration. They also found that the size of the effect depended on the cognitive ability tested, the equivalence of test forms, the retest interval and the age of the participant. The practical meaning is that a second score on the same items does not stand alone as a measurement, and that a gain between two sittings is not necessarily a gain in ability.

On supervision, Steger, Schroeders and Gnambs (2020) combined 109 effect sizes from 49 studies, with 100,434 participants in total, and found a pooled difference of 0.20, with a 95 percent confidence interval of 0.10 to 0.31, indicating higher scores in unproctored assessments. A pooled difference of that size means that identity, environment and adherence to instructions cannot be assumed. The page on the difference between professional and online IQ tests covers this limit, and the page on IQ tests for adults describes the options open to an adult reader.

Two consequences follow for a buyer. A person who takes any online test twice should treat the second result as informed by the first. And a person comparing a result from one site with a result from another should know the conditions of both, the date, the form, the device and whether the first sitting was recent.

12 Where ACIS Sits, and What a Buyer Should Do

We sell ACIS, which competes with CogniProfile for the same buyer, so ACIS should be judged by the questions applied to CogniProfile above, and its limits are stated here as plainly as its strengths. ACIS administers 20 subtests across six cognitive domains and reports a Full Scale IQ and six primary indices: verbal comprehension, fluid reasoning, quantitative reasoning, visual spatial, working memory and processing speed. Scores are on the standard scale with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15, and the report gives percentiles and a 95 percent confidence interval, with subtest scores from 1 to 19. Adult norms cover ages 16 to 90. The three forms cost 15, 30 and 50 dollars on October 6, 2026 for Quick, Optimized and Full Scale, payment is one time with no subscription, breaks are allowed, a free trial needs no card, a five day quality guarantee applies, and a purchase gives 30 days to finish. The home page shows those prices before a visitor starts. The technical manual holds the documentation, and this page quotes no figure from it.

The limits are real. ACIS is online and unsupervised, so identity, environment and adherence to instructions cannot be verified. It is not a clinical or diagnostic instrument. It is not for hiring, school accommodations or admission to high IQ societies. It is English only. The Full Scale form takes about 175 minutes, which is far longer than the 40 minute clock on the CogniProfile test page. A shorter test is easier to finish, and a longer one samples more abilities, so neither length is a verdict. On documented points, CogniProfile has strengths ACIS does not claim: a very short path from the home page to the first item with no payment before the test begins, according to what we saw, and a large number of reviews on Trustpilot. What the pages show for ACIS and not for CogniProfile is a price on the home page before a visitor starts, a stated quality guarantee and a documentation page. Those are differences of disclosure, not proof that one score is more accurate than the other, because no comparison of the two was found.

The Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing (AERA, APA and NCME, 2014) are the framework against which any online test can be read, and they ask that evidence of validity and reliability accompany the use of scores. The American Psychological Association's Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct applies the same logic to practice. Standard 9.02(a) says psychologists use assessment techniques "in a manner and for purposes that are appropriate in light of the research on or evidence of the usefulness and proper application of the techniques". Standard 9.06 says that, in interpreting results, they take into account the purpose of the assessment and factors such as situational, personal, linguistic and cultural differences that might reduce the accuracy of their interpretations, and that they indicate any significant limitations. Those rules govern professionals, and a buyer can borrow them as questions. Neither the Standards nor the APA code endorses CogniProfile, ACIS or any other product.

What a buyer should do follows from those questions.

1. Name the decision the number will feed. For a diagnosis, school accommodations, hiring or a society, neither product fits, and the page on who can administer an IQ test explains the route that does.
2. Find the price before the test. Look for it on the home page, in the terms and on the payment screen, and treat a missing price as information.
3. Read the renewal and refund wording before entering a card, and write down the amount due today, any trial, the renewal interval and how to cancel.
4. Look for the reference group, the date, the sample size and the reliability of the score, and read the guide to accurate IQ tests for what a complete answer looks like.
5. Weigh ratings by their text and their distribution, and remember that a review offer, such as the one in the payment screen code, affects what a rating can tell you.
6. Record the date, the form and the conditions of any result, because products and terms change and a retake does not stand alone.
7. Compare the free routes first. The page on paid IQ tests explains billing models, and the pages on IQ test apps and on adaptive IQ tests cover two other kinds of product. The review of RIOT IQ and the review of Innerly apply the same checks to two more brands.
