What this test is about
Answer 12 questions about your outward social shine: walking into a room of strangers, opening conversations, being remembered afterwards. Each answer scores 0–3 points; your total maps to a Social Butterfly level from 1 to 10.
What's free, and what's deeper
Free: Your Social Butterfly level and the first two sections of your report — the level reading and the evidence from your answers.
Go deeper: The Deep Dive ($2.99) unlocks how your shine actually works, where it quietly costs you, and a plan for aiming it — which rooms are worth your full wattage, and how to open warmer conversations at any level.
Results you can get
- Level 1 — The Decorative Wallflower
- Level 4 — The Warm Acquaintance
- Level 6 — The Icebreaker
- Level 8 — The Walking Party
- Level 10 — The Social Supernova
- …and every level in between
Frequently asked questions
How is this different from the Social Battery test?
They measure opposite directions. Social Battery asks what socialising costs you — how much charge a party drains. The Social Butterfly Index asks what you radiate — how much you open up, connect and light up a room while you're in it. Plenty of people score high here and drain fast there: brilliant for two hours, then home. Taking both gives you the full picture.
Can a quiet person score high on the butterfly index?
Yes — shine isn't volume. Several high levels are built on one-on-one depth, remembering names and details, and making one person feel like the centre of the room. The questions score connection behaviour, not loudness: a Level 7 Crowd Surfer and a Level 6 Icebreaker often never raise their voice at all.
Is a low butterfly level a problem to fix?
No. Low levels include the Decorative Wallflower and the Quiet Observer — people whose social style is depth over broadcast, and whose friends wouldn't trade them. The report reads every level for what it's good at; the deep version's plan is about aiming the style you have, not becoming someone else.
