CogniVault is a free UK parent check and cognitive blueprint platform designed to help you explore your child's learning traits. Our simple questionnaire screens for signs of dyslexia, ADHD, visual processing differences, auditory processing difficulties, dyscalculia, dyspraxia, and other neurodivergent traits in children. Built by parents, for parents. Not a diagnosis — a first step toward understanding.
Your child is bright but struggles with reading, spelling, or keeping up in class. They lose focus easily, find it hard to sit still, or seem to learn differently from their classmates. Teachers say they need to try harder, but you know something else is going on. You have searched for "signs of dyslexia in children UK" or "does my child have ADHD" and found yourself overwhelmed by conflicting information. Traditional private assessments cost between £800 and £1,500, and NHS waiting lists for ADHD assessment or autism diagnosis can stretch for two years or longer. CogniVault gives you a free, immediate first step while you wait.
Our parent check explores nine key areas of neurodivergent traits in children and adults. These include dyslexia traits such as difficulty with reading, spelling, and phonics; ADHD patterns including inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity; visual processing differences affecting how your child interprets what they see; auditory processing difficulties that make it hard to follow spoken instructions; dyscalculia signs such as struggling with numbers and maths concepts; dyspraxia traits including coordination difficulties and motor planning challenges; autism spectrum traits affecting social communication and sensory processing; sensory processing sensitivity; and executive function difficulties with planning, organisation, and time management. We focus on identifying cognitive strengths alongside areas of difficulty — what makes your child's mind unique, not just what they find hard.
The CogniVault parent check is free, takes around three minutes, and requires no account or login. Simply answer questions about your child's behaviour and learning patterns at home and school. You receive an instant results summary highlighting their likely cognitive strengths and the areas worth exploring further. Results include a personalised breakdown of trait categories, strengths-based descriptions, and guidance on what to do next — including when to consider a professional assessment in the UK.
For deeper insight, the full cognitive blueprint assessment covers personality traits across 16 categories, cognitive ability estimation across six domains, and neurodivergent screening across nine conditions. The assessment assigns you one of seven cognitive blueprints — such as The Pattern Thinker, The Visual Architect, or The Creative Connector — and identifies your core strengths, potential friction points, and helpful learning approaches. The full blueprint is available for a one-time payment of £49.99 with no subscription required. It includes AI-powered narrative interpretation of your results and a shareable Working Profile you can give to teachers, tutors, or employers.
CogniVault is not just for parents. Many adults in the UK live with undiagnosed ADHD, dyslexia, or other neurodivergent traits. If you have always felt that you think differently, struggled with organisation or focus at work, or wondered whether your learning style is neurotypical, the adult cognitive blueprint can help. Our assessment screens for adult ADHD symptoms, dyslexia traits, autism spectrum traits, sensory processing sensitivity, executive dysfunction, and more. Understanding your cognitive profile can be the first step toward strategies that actually work for your brain.
Common signs that a child or adult may benefit from a cognitive screening include difficulty with reading or spelling despite being intelligent, trouble concentrating or sitting still, frequently losing things or forgetting instructions, being easily overwhelmed in noisy or busy environments, struggling with handwriting or coordination, finding maths concepts unusually difficult, thinking in pictures rather than words, intense focus on specific interests, difficulty understanding social cues, and sensory sensitivities to light, sound, or textures. If several of these sound familiar, a CogniVault parent check or cognitive blueprint can help you understand what is happening and what to explore next.
The parent check is completely free. The short cognitive blueprint is also free and provides a basic profile of your thinking style. The full cognitive blueprint with AI insights, detailed trait analysis, and a shareable Working Profile costs just £49.99 — a one-time payment. No subscription, no hidden costs. Compare this with private ADHD assessments (£500–£1,500) or educational psychologist reports (£400–£800) in the UK.
Is CogniVault a diagnosis? No. CogniVault is a guidance and screening tool, not a clinical diagnostic instrument. It provides an indication of cognitive patterns and neurodivergent traits to help you decide whether to pursue a formal assessment. We always recommend consulting a qualified professional such as an educational psychologist, clinical psychologist, or specialist psychiatrist for a formal diagnosis.
Who is it for? CogniVault is designed for UK parents who want to understand their child's learning differences, and for adults seeking cognitive self-discovery. It is suitable for parents of children aged 4 and above.
How long does it take? The parent check takes approximately three minutes. The full adult cognitive blueprint takes around five minutes.
Is my data safe? Yes. CogniVault is fully UK GDPR compliant. No account is required for the free assessment. You can export or delete your data at any time.
