About Us

Have you ever been told you're 'too sensitive' or 'think too much'? You're not alone, and you've found a place to understand why.

The Journey to Understanding Sensitivity

Hsptest.org was born from a simple observation: many people felt different but lacked the words to describe their experience. We created this platform to offer a reliable tool based on Dr. Elaine N. Aron's foundational research, providing not just a score, but deep, personalized AI-driven insights to foster true self-awareness.

A Spark of Inspiration - Early 2024

The idea for Hsptest.org emerged from the need for a more accessible and insightful HSP assessment tool—one that went beyond a simple score to offer genuine understanding.

Official Launch - June 2025

We launched with a focus on usability, clarity, and a human-centered design, making the science of high sensitivity accessible to a global audience.

AI-Powered Insights - September 2025

We introduced optional, AI-generated reports to provide deeper, personalized analysis, helping users connect their test results to their daily lives.

Looking Ahead to 2026

Our goal is to continue expanding our resources, add more languages, and further personalize the user experience to support the HSP community worldwide.

Your Compass for Self-Awareness

We envision a world where sensitivity is understood and valued. Hsptest.org serves as your personal compass, guiding you through the complexities of your inner world and helping you chart a course toward profound self-acceptance and a more fulfilling life.

The Cornerstones of Our Approach

Every aspect of Hsptest.org is built upon three core principles: scientific validity rooted in established research, deep empathy for the user's journey, and an unwavering commitment to protecting your privacy.

Clarity, Not a Label

This test is a tool for self-exploration, not a clinical diagnosis. Use your results as a starting point for understanding yourself better, ideally in conversation with a qualified professional.

Your Journey is Yours Alone

We believe your self-discovery should be private. Your test responses are anonymous, and we will never sell your data. That is our fundamental promise to you.

Built on a Foundation of Research

Our assessment is grounded in the pioneering scientific work of Dr. Elaine N. Aron on Sensory Processing Sensitivity. We translate established research into accessible insights you can trust.

Our Commitment to Your Journey

Self-discovery is an intimate journey. We are committed to being your trusted, insightful, and supportive partner every step of the way.

This test was a revelation. The AI report gave me the language to understand my sensitivity not as a flaw, but as a part of who I am. It's incredibly validating.

I was worried about my child's sensitivity. This platform helped me understand it's a normal trait, not a problem. The insights are helping me create a more supportive environment for him.
