Can you explain the four scales?

The four scales are core to Wethos AI, here's an in depth explanation of each one.

The Scales: Ideas

The Ideas Scale measures how you absorb information and express your thoughts.

  • Are they more visionary or practical in their thinking? Evaluates whether individuals think in broad concepts and metaphors or in specific details.

  • Do they like to summarize their ideas or describe them in a detailed narrative?

  • Do they start by asking themselves “what else,” “how to,” or “with what”?

  • Do they process ideas by verbalizing them, asking questions, or thinking them through silently?

There are five segment styles on this scale:
