Truity Alternatives for Personality Assessments in 2026

Truity's Enneagram test is its headline product. According to Truity, it is about 105 questions, takes 10 to 15 minutes, and is free to take. The free results show your score on each of the nine types; the full report is paid. Truity also publishes a technical document on the test's reliability and validity and names the clinical psychologist who reviewed it.

Scoring all nine types is useful, because the Enneagram's main difficulty is that many people sit close to two or three types and are not sure which one is theirs. That is also the most common reason to look for a Truity Enneagram alternative: a second instrument, written by someone else, is a reasonable way to check a result.

Other Enneagram tests

The Enneagram Institute offers its own test, the Riso-Hudson Enneagram Type Indicator (RHETI), now in version 2.5. Its framework adds wings, nine levels of development within each type, and lines of growth and stress between types, which give a single type number more texture.

Going past one type number

The Enneagram is organized around motivation: what each type wants and fears. A values assessment measures the same territory more directly. Opinion DNA scores personal values such as achievement, security, and benevolence on separate scales, along with neuroticism, the trait behind much of how people respond under stress. For a fuller comparison, see our Enneagram alternatives guide and Opinion DNA vs the Enneagram.

Truity and 16Personalities get compared often, since both offer a 16-type test. They are built differently.

• •Truity's TypeFinder is, in Truity's words, based on Myers and Briggs' theory but not the same as the MBTI assessment. It runs 130 questions and reports four dimensions of type plus 23 facets. The brief report is free and the full report is paid.
• •16Personalities uses Myers-Briggs-style letters, adds a fifth scale for Assertive or Turbulent, and says on its theory page that it does not use Jungian concepts and instead reworks the Big Five traits. The test is free.

So if you want a classic 16-type result with more detail inside each letter, TypeFinder is closer to the Myers-Briggs tradition. If you want a quick free code with the A or T stress scale included, 16Personalities fits. We put both side by side, along with Dimensional, in Truity vs 16Personalities vs Dimensional. For alternatives to the Myers-Briggs itself, see our MBTI alternatives guide.

Taking the Truity Enneagram, Big Five, and TypeFinder tests gives you three good snapshots from three frameworks. What it doesn't give you is one picture where the pieces are scored on the same scale and read together.

Opinion DNA is designed as that single picture. One 179-question assessment, about 10 to 15 minutes, produces 48 continuous scores in three layers:

• •Personality (12): the Big Five, including openness and conscientiousness, plus the Dark Triad and four more, such as life satisfaction.
• •Values (24): moral foundations such as care, cooperative virtues, and personal values such as self-direction.
• •Meta-thinking (12): how you reason and what you assume about the world, such as need for cognition.

Every score is benchmarked against population averages, and an AI-generated report interprets them together across personality, values, career, and relationships. It is a $47 one-time purchase with lifetime access. The head-to-head is at Opinion DNA vs Truity.

Truity is a sensible pick in a few situations. If you want one specific framework, quickly and for free, its tests are short: the Big Five is 60 questions and 5 to 10 minutes, and DISC is 38 questions and about 5 minutes. If you are curious about the Enneagram and want scores on all nine types before paying anything, its Enneagram test does that. And if you manage a team that already uses one of these frameworks, Truity sells the same tests to organizations through Truity@Work.

The case for an alternative is strongest when you want more than one framework can answer, or when you want a second opinion on a type that never quite fit.

Match the alternative to the reason you are leaving.

• •Unsure of your Enneagram type: take a second Enneagram test from another publisher, such as the RHETI.
• •Want a free 16-type result: 16Personalities.
• •Want research-standard trait scores: a Big Five test.
• •Want to focus on talents at work: Gallup's CliftonStrengths, which ranks 34 themes.
• •Want personality, values, and thinking style in one profile: Opinion DNA.
