How it works

Answer 40 questions

Rate how much you agree or disagree with statements across 10 topics: things like the economy, healthcare, environment, and personal freedoms.

See your unique shape

Each topic becomes one spoke on a coloured polygon. Your answers determine how far each point extends, creating a shape that's yours alone.

Compare with a friend

Share your compare link. When a friend takes the quiz and opens it, both polygons appear overlaid. Political difference as geometry, not warfare.

How to read your shape

Each spoke represents one topic. The further a point extends from the center, the stronger your conviction on that dimension. A spoke at the outer edge means deep conviction; near the center means near-neutral. The connected points form your unique coloured polygon.

Spoke length = conviction strength

100 % Strong conviction
50 % Moderate
0 % Neutral / none

Wedge shade = direction

Light = progressive · Dark = conservative

Hover any spoke for the axis name, your score, and which direction it leans. Open Category Breakdown for the full per-axis detail.

Important: Scores reflect your position on a specific dimension, not a left-right axis. Two people with very different politics can both score high on civil liberties, for completely different reasons.

The social feature

Compare shapes
with someone you know

Political disagreement becomes personal when it's between people who know each other. Poligon turns that into geometry.

Share your compare link. When your partner, colleague, or friend opens it and takes the quiz, both shapes appear overlaid on the same polygon. Where they overlap, you agree. Where they diverge, you don't. No labels required.
