Iq Friends

We are a group of engineers and researchers, with the goal of making humanity smarter. We are achieving this by making scientific brain training fun and social. We started IQ Friends with an online IQ test, that was developed with researchers at the SRH University Heidelberg. This test was not only scientific but also fun and free. Thus it attracted over 8 million test takers! Based on this success we developed others psychometric tests, always keeping in mind the science on the one hand and the user experience on the other. Thus we launched an Emotional IQ test based on the EQ framework advanced by Daniel Goleman and a 16 personality factors personality test with the help of Swiss researches, called the Swiss 16 PF Personality Test. Both tests have attracted more than 5 million test takers! In 2013 we finally realized that users not only wanted to get to know them but also to improve themselves. Thus we developed with the input of both neurologists as well as game designers, brain training games. In 2014 we received a grant from Microsoft to bring our games to the Windows Mobile Phone and a seed investmend from LauncHub. Later that years we received a grant by Startup Brasil.
