BIO-ACOUSTIC PERSONALITY

Your Voice Reveals Who You Are

1,000+ engines analyze involuntary vocal biomarkers to map your personality across 10 scientific frameworks. No questionnaire. No self-report bias. Just your voice.

Big Five (OCEAN)

Peer-Reviewed

The gold standard in personality psychology. Five dimensions measured from vocal energy, pitch variation, speech rate, and prosodic patterns.

Openness Pitch variability, vocabulary richness, creative pauses
Conscientiousness Speech regularity, precise articulation, structured rhythm
Extraversion Higher energy, faster rate, wider pitch range, fewer pauses
Agreeableness Vocal warmth, lower spectral centroid, prosodic mirroring
Neuroticism Jitter elevation, pitch instability, filled pauses, vocal tension

Extended Personality (6-Factor)

Peer-Reviewed

The Big Five extended with a critical 6th dimension: Honesty-Humility. Detected through vocal sincerity markers and speech authenticity patterns.

Honesty-Humility Vocal sincerity, absence of impression management cues, natural prosody
Emotionality Vocal expressiveness, pitch reactivity, emotional leakage patterns
+ 4 shared dimensions with Big Five (X, A, C, O)

Enneagram

Deep Profiling

Beyond basic type detection. ORAVYS computes your full Enneagram profile including wings, instinctual variants, and tritype from vocal biomarkers.

Core Type 9 types detected from prosodic motivation patterns
Wing Adjacent type influence (e.g., 9w1 or 9w8) from probability distribution
Instinctual Variant Self-Preservation (stable rhythm), Social (projected energy), Sexual (intensity peaks)
Tritype Top type per center: Body (8-9-1), Head (5-6-7), Heart (2-3-4)
Growth / Stress Direction detected from voice state shifts during recording

DISC

Corporate Standard

The most widely used corporate personality framework. Communication style detected from speech dynamics, energy projection, and pacing patterns.

Dominance Fast pace, assertive volume, declarative intonation, minimal hedging
Influence Wide pitch range, high energy, enthusiasm bursts, animated prosody
Steadiness Regular rhythm, moderate pace, warm tone, consistent energy
Conscientiousness Measured pace, precise articulation, analytical pauses, controlled delivery

40-Emotion Mapping

Physiological

Far beyond basic "happy/sad/angry." ORAVYS detects 40 discrete emotions from acoustic biomarkers, grouped into HIGH, MEDIUM, and LOW intensity tiers.

HIGH Amusement, Determination, Contentment, Distress...
PRESENT Pride, Relief, Contemplation, Doubt...
TRACES Nostalgia, Envy, Shame, Ecstasy...

Temporal Dynamics

Second-by-Second

Your personality is not static. ORAVYS tracks how you shift between states every 5 seconds, mapping cognitive load, stress responses, and emotional transitions.

Cognitive Load 0-100 score from filled pauses, rate changes, pitch resets
Baseline Deviation Z-score comparison to YOUR personal vocal pattern, not a universal norm
Narrative Graph SVG trajectory with per-segment explanation of what changed and why

Dark Triad

Exploratory

Measures Machiavellianism, Narcissism, and Psychopathy from vocal patterns: strategic flatness, dominant projection, and affective suppression markers.

Machiavellianism Controlled prosody, calculated pauses, strategic emotional suppression
Narcissism Dominant vocal projection, self-assured rhythm, dramatic pitch range
Psychopathy Flat affect, reduced prosody, monotonic quality, counter-intuitive calm

Attachment Style

Affect Regulation

Four attachment patterns detected from vocal affect regulation: stability, anxiety markers, emotional withdrawal, and approach-avoidance dynamics.

Secure Balanced pitch, steady rhythm, warm harmonics, natural expression
Anxious Elevated pitch, higher jitter, urgency markers, energy lability
Avoidant Compressed pitch, lower energy, disengaged rhythm, over-control
Disorganized Vocal instability, irregular rhythm, conflicting tension patterns

Emotional Intelligence (EQ)

Goleman/Salovey-Mayer

Five EQ dimensions estimated from vocal congruence, regulation markers, and prosodic flexibility. Composite score with tier classification.

Self-Awareness Vocal congruence between pitch and intensity patterns
Self-Regulation Low jitter, amplitude stability, controlled speech rate
Empathy Vocal flexibility, warm HNR, patient prosodic patterns

Leadership Style

Communication

Four leadership communication patterns from vocal dominance, warmth, and energy indices. Identifies primary and secondary style with communication profile.

Transformational Wide pitch, high energy, expressive prosody, charismatic presence
Transactional Steady rate, controlled intensity, predictable rhythm, clarity
Servant Softer intensity, patient pace, warm vocal quality, flexibility
Authoritative Commanding projection, dominant register, forceful articulation

How Voice Personality Works

1

Record

30 seconds of natural speech. Read a passage or speak freely.

2

Analyze

1,000+ engines extract involuntary biomarkers: micro-tremors, harmonics, prosody, formants.

3

Profile

Your personality mapped across 10 frameworks with temporal narrative and baseline comparison.

Why Voice Beats Questionnaires

Traditional Questionnaires

  • Self-report bias (people answer who they want to be)
  • Social desirability distortion
  • Static snapshot (same result regardless of state)
  • 20-60 minutes to complete
  • Easy to fake or game

ORAVYS Voice Analysis

  • Involuntary biomarkers (cannot be consciously controlled)
  • Physiological ground truth from vocal fold physics
  • Dynamic: captures state shifts in real-time
  • 30 seconds of natural speech
  • Resistant to deception (micro-tremors don't lie)

The Science

Voice-based personality detection relies on the fact that personality traits produce consistent patterns in vocal production. Extraversion correlates with higher energy and wider pitch range. Neuroticism manifests as micro-tremor elevation and pitch instability. Conscientiousness appears as regular speech rhythm and precise articulation. These are involuntary physiological signatures that cannot be faked or suppressed.
