Thinking Profile

See what your thinking is getting better at.

Every answer you write adds evidence to five thinking lenses. Your Thinking Profile turns that evidence into a picture you can act on.

An example Thinking Profile

Each point is the strongest evidence a lens has shown so far. This example is strong at understanding and reflecting, and has the most room to grow in challenging assumptions.

The Lens Score Scale

Each lens is scored from your answers on the same scale, from 0 to 4.

  • 0 · No meaningful evidence

    The lens has not shown up in your answers yet.

  • 1 · Emerging

    Early signs of the skill, often partial or general.

  • 2 · Developing

    The skill appears regularly and is starting to be specific.

  • 3 · Strong

    Clear, specific and well reasoned.

  • 4 · Advanced

    Consistently precise, independent and well supported.

Built from your words, not your clicks

Time spent reading or pages turned do not count. The profile only moves when your own reasoning shows a lens, which keeps it an honest record of how you think.

No. Only reasoning in your own words counts as evidence for a lens.

Is the Thinking Profile included for free?

Yes. The free plan includes a Basic Thinking Profile, and paid plans include the Advanced Thinking Profile.
