About Pythia
Built on science. Made for the people who hire.
Pythia was born from a simple observation: the tools most businesses use to choose people haven't kept up with what science knows about them.
Personality tests are long, easy to game, and often built on models with weak evidence behind them. Gut feeling after a 30-minute interview isn't much better. And for a small business, every hire that doesn't work out costs weeks.
We built Pythia to close that gap. It reads the interview you're already doing and tells you, in plain language, how a candidate fits the job and what it will take to keep them, using the Big Five, the best-supported model in personality psychology.
We're a small Montreal team with backgrounds in personality research, mathematics and software. We take the science seriously, and we take your data just as seriously.
Principles
What we stand for.
Scientific rigour
Every measurement is grounded in peer-reviewed personality research. No proprietary types, no horoscopes.
Honest limits
Personality shapes behaviour; it doesn't decide it. Pythia gives you a signal, not a verdict, and you make the call.
Privacy by design
Built for Quebec's Law 25 from day one, not added on afterwards.
