Common questions
Is The Friction Reader free?
Yes — completely. No signup, no paywall on your results, no upsell at the end. Every Wrenlight test is free, and your result feeds your evolving cross-test Portrait.
How long does The Friction Reader take?
~4 min — 18 questions. Every question is scenario-based — real situations rather than abstract self-ratings — so it moves quickly.
What does The Friction Reader measure?
5 dimensions — Force, Soft, Pace, Energy and Intimacy — each measured by at least three differently-shaped questions, resolving into one of 6 types.
How is it scored?
Each answer carries weights toward the dimensions; your 0–100 scores map to the closest of the 6 types, and borderline results are flagged as borderline rather than rounded into false confidence. Full details on the methodology page. How this is measured →
