Four cognitive test subjects — Math & Logic, Language & Vocabulary, Spatial & Creative, Emotional Intelligence — unlimited attempts, plus your full intelligence profile and progress tracking. Pro adds an unlimited AI tutor, daily challenges, and weekly reports.
Most brain-training apps hand you timed reflex games and a subscription paywall. BrainForge is built around cognitive quizzes across four domains plus an AI tutor that adapts to how you learn — free to test with no account, and it's engaging mental exercise, not a proven IQ boost.
Free is a complete self-testing experience. Pro removes the caps on the AI layer.
Cognitive quizzes across four domains, plus an AI tutor — not timed reflex games.
Not a scientific IQ test. BrainForge's cognitive tests are unnormed quizzes, not a validated psychometric instrument. No brain-training app — BrainForge included — has proven that improving at these exercises transfers to real-world intelligence. Treat it as engaging cognitive practice, not a proven way to raise your IQ.
Everything you need to know about BrainForge.
Yes. All four cognitive test subjects, unlimited attempts, your full intelligence profile, level/XP progression, and streaks are free with no account. Pro ($19/mo) only lifts the credit limits on the AI features — the Aria tutor, daily AI challenge, and weekly AI report.
No — BrainForge works on your device with no email or signup, on Free or Pro.

Unlimited Aria AI tutor sessions, unlimited daily AI challenges, and unlimited weekly AI reports — the three AI features that run on a limited credit allowance on Free. A one-time credit pack ($4.99 for 200 credits) is also available if you'd rather not subscribe.
That's genuinely BrainForge's price — it's the most expensive tier in this comparison, higher than Lumosity and well above Elevate. The free tier is where BrainForge's value is; Pro is a premium option for unlimited AI tutoring, not a budget pick.
Yes — BrainForge is device-based, not account-based. No email or sign-up means nothing tied to your identity to harvest.
