Step 1 · Your personality
Get a full map of your personality
Take Swell's personality assessment. You'll see where you land on 63 traits, what you're great at, and the blind spots that trip you up.
Rachel found out
You wear your heart on your sleeve. To you, being an open book is the only way to get close to someone.
Once you see the pattern, you can stop repeating it.
Step 2 · Your relationships
See your compatibility with anyone in your life
Invite a partner, friend, family member or coworker. Swell compares your traits and shows where you match and where you clash, one area at a time.
Rachel found out
Zack sees parts of you that you miss.
Fewer repeat arguments, because you both know what's going on.
Bonds & Connection
Where you and Zack line up, where you clash, and how it plays out.
What's unusual about you two
Zack sees parts of you that you miss
You don't have a strong map of your own interior, and you don't share much of what you do see. Zack identifies patterns in you that you haven't identified in yourself.
This matters just as much to Zack
You and Zack both bond at high voltage. The stakes feel intense to both of you, moments of closeness land with the same weight, and distance registers as significant for both.
The traits behind your match
You feel known without explaining
Neither of you has to explain every thought or feeling to be understood. You pick up on what Zack means and feels without everything being said, and Zack does the same for you.
Bids land without a manual
When you reach out, Zack catches it. When Zack reaches back, you feel it arrive.
The choosing doesn't come
You need to feel actively wanted, and Zack doesn't move toward you that way.
What you'll never have to explain
That you need to be seen, not fixed
That the pause wasn't rejection
It was rest, and Zack can tell the difference
Step 3 · Habit plans
Follow a step-by-step plan to change a habit
Pick something you want to change. Swell builds a plan of short sessions that fit how you think, and tracks your progress.
A plan might be
Say the hard thing sooner. 10 short sessions. Session 4: write the first line of a conversation you've been putting off.
Break the habits that get in your way at home and at work.
Step 4 · Daily insights
Get a new insight about yourself every day
Each morning, Swell sends one insight based on your traits and one small thing to try that day. Tap That's me or Not quite, and the next ones get sharper.
Today's insight might be
You see the gap between who someone is and who they could be, and you cannot leave it alone.
Small changes each day add up to habits that stick.
Step 4 · Coaching
Talk through real problems with a coach who knows you
Sam, your coach, knows your personality, your goals and the people in your life. Bring a fight, a hard conversation or a tough call, any time of day.
You might ask
My sister canceled on me again. I'm about to send her a long text.
Work through real problems on your own schedule, without explaining yourself from scratch.
What keeps coming up for you?
Pick something that sounds familiar.
These are examples, not personalized assessments. Swell helps you discover your own patterns.
What might be happening
You want to talk it out now. They need time first. So you push, they pull back, and you push harder.
Something to try
Try saying: “Can we talk about this tonight at 8?” Then wait until 8.

How is Swell different from other personality tests? From therapy?
Most personality tests give you a type and stop. Swell shows the patterns your traits create, then helps you change them.
Therapy is a set time with a trained professional. Swell is with you every day. It knows your patterns and helps the moment something comes up.
Is what I share private?
Yes. What you share is yours.
