I am disenchanted with Riot IQ. I have been following Riot IQ for quite a while and was excited during its development. I was considering administering Riot IQ at one point as a quick and free cognitive assessment for my patients. However, as a consumer, "free" is the operative word; Riot IQ was going to be a free online test for 'the people as a whole' which would rival the WAIS-IV and make intelligence testing more accessible, but from my perspective, it seems monetary incentives spoke louder and they pivoted. Nowadays, their test is built to look like established measures such as the WAIS-IV, but lacks in proper psychometric data, validation, and standardization (which is exactly what makes real assessments meaningful). Their scant norms appear to be based on participants from Prolific -- a place where people take online surveys for a bit of cash -- data is questionable based on how Prolific samples usually look. The norms are relatively lackluster as a result, so I sadly regret taking Riot IQ. The online community around Riot IQ might disappoint you as well. Their subreddit is filled with low-effort, repetitive promotion, and many accounts seem focused on shutting down criticism rather than discussing limitations. Meanwhile, developers seem to be putting far more effort into advertising and branding, instead of improving their assessment. There have unfortunately been an influx of products like Riot IQ lately; commercial products which function as diluted echoes of well-validated tests like the WAIS-IV, in contrast to products which actually break ground and contribute meaningfully to psychometrics... so I highly do not recommend Riot IQ for anyone genuinely looking for accurate results, but I guess I can respect the hustle.

We appreciate your feedback and want to clarify our financial model. RIOT was never going to be a free project. It is free for many research groups. Every dollar generated from the public is immediately reinvested. This funding is crucial as it allows Dr. Warne and the team to work on RIOT full-time, dedicating 100% of our effort to its ongoing development and improvement. Our revenue is utilized on growing the project's quality and capabilities. It has also improved over time. We are adding new items weekly, along with code updates and more. It will take some time for some of these changes to be noticeable to someone not working on the project day to day, but you will see them as they progress. Hope to see you come back as we make RIOT better. It has only really just started.
