The HVMP was built by the practitioner who uses it. The items, the scoring framework, and the written report all come from the same place: a sustained, hands-on read of how hockey players actually think under pressure. The Profile is the productised, self-serve version. Same architecture. Shorter form. Designed so the report you receive is genuinely useful, not a horoscope.

How this is different

Why the Profile is not a quiz.

What this is not.

This is not a BuzzFeed-style personality quiz repackaged for sport. It is not a generic 16-type model translated into hockey vocabulary. It is not an algorithm that generates a profile from a database of stock phrases.

The HVMP architecture, the items themselves, and the written report were all built by Rob, a performance consultant who has spent fifteen years reading cricketers and footballers at elite level. The instrument is honest about its limits. It is not an academically validated psychometric in the formal sense, and it does not claim to be.

How the report is generated. The HVMP scoring layer is rule-based and deterministic, same answers produce the same scores every time. The written narrative is then drafted using a large language model (Anthropic's Claude) running a prompt designed by Rob, and reviewed by Rob during the early phase of the product. The instrument is the practitioner's. The model is the engine that lets the report be delivered consistently and within minutes rather than days. Full disclosure is in the privacy policy.
Early reader feedback

What players have said.

The best thing I have done for my game. It put words around stuff I had half-noticed about myself for years.

Honest about limits

What the Profile does not do.

The Profile is the introductory level of the HVMP. It surfaces the eight dimension scores in clear, plain language and gives you something to sit with. It is not a substitute for the full practitioner-led HVMP, which goes deeper across three more layers:

The credibility layer. The full HVMP includes embedded credibility checks and cross-section consistency analysis. The Profile does not.

The pattern layer. The full HVMP detects eight cross-dimension interaction patterns. The Profile reads dimension by dimension only.

The debrief. The full HVMP includes a 45 to 60 minute structured debrief. The Profile is a written read; the bridge tier above includes a 30-minute video conversation.

If you want the full read, the path is: take the Profile, then either book the debrief tier or get in touch directly about the full HVMP. The Profile purchase credits toward the full HVMP if you upgrade within sixty days.
