Riot IQ's mission is to provide validated psychological testing that gives individuals a deeper understanding of their abilities, strengths, and areas of improvement.
RIOT was founded by Dr. Russell T. Warne and his team to address a major gap in intelligence testing: no rigorously developed, professionally administered IQ tests were available solely online. Recognizing this need, they studied gold-standard intelligence assessments like the WAIS-IV/V, CogAT 9, RIAS-2, and WISC-V, which psychologists and researchers have long relied upon. While these tests provide scientifically rigorous measures of intelligence, they come with significant barriers. They are inaccessible for online use, prohibitively expensive, updated infrequently, and require in-person administration.
To create a scientifically valid yet widely accessible alternative, Dr. Warne and his team set out to develop the most comprehensive online intelligence testing platform. Their goal was to match the validity of traditional assessments while eliminating the cost, logistical hurdles, and outdated limitations that had historically restricted access to intelligence testing. RIOT eliminates these barriers, offering a scientifically rigorous intelligence test that is accessible, affordable, and designed for the modern world.
