What beta users are saying
Aven is still in beta, and this is real, unedited feedback from people who tried it early — praise, gripes, and all. We're not claiming thousands of reviews or a perfect score; this is what actual early users told us.
Was stuck between Commerce and Science for weeks, my parents wanted Science obviously. Did this on a whim during a free period and it actually asked good questions, not just "do you like maths yes/no". Ended up picking Commerce with Maths and honestly feel a lot more sure about it now. Took maybe 10 mins.
Decent personality breakdown, matched what I already suspected about myself (ENTJ apparently, tracks). The career list leaned pretty India-heavy on the government exam stuff which didn't really apply to me, but the general strengths/weaknesses section was solid. Would've liked a bit more nuance in the salary numbers section.
Paid for the premium one after the free report and honestly worth it just for the 90-day plan. I printed it out and I have it stuck on my wall lol. The salary negotiation tips were more useful than I expected from an automated report.
Uploaded my resume expecting the usual generic ATS score thing every site does. This one actually pointed out specific missing keywords for the data analyst roles I was applying to and caught a formatting issue that was probably breaking my ATS parsing this whole time. Fixed it, got 2 callbacks the following week — can't say it's directly because of this but the timing lines up.
Fun quiz, the simulation part with the scenarios was more engaging than a normal personality test. My only gripe is it took a little longer to load the report than I expected, maybe 20-30 seconds, felt longer when you're waiting. Results were good though, recommended UX research which I hadn't really considered before.
my cousin sent me this after I kept going back and forth on Arts vs Commerce for like a month. did it in one sitting, the questions felt like they actually got what Indian students go through (family pressure, the whole "but what about placements" thing) instead of some generic western career quiz translated badly. picked Arts w/ Economics, feeling good about it.
It's fine for what it is — a fun personality quiz with career suggestions attached. I don't think I'd call it life-changing, some of the career matches felt pretty generic for my type (a lot of "consultant" and "manager" type roles). Might be more useful for someone earlier in figuring out their direction than someone already a few years into a career like me.
Really appreciated that it detected I wasn't in India and didn't just throw a bunch of Indian government exam suggestions at me — the career pathways were relevant to where I actually am. The work-style breakdown (decision making, communication style) was surprisingly accurate, showed it to my manager and she agreed with most of it.
Good tool overall. Caught a few things my friend who works in HR didn't even mention — mostly around keyword matching for ATS systems, which apparently is a bigger deal than I realized. Interface is clean too, no clutter. Only thing is I wish it supported reviewing in Spanish, had to upload my English CV instead of my usual one.
Did this during a proper quarter-life-crisis moment about switching out of teaching. The 4-letter type thing felt a bit gimmicky at first if I'm honest, but the actual career suggestions underneath it were thoughtful — recommended instructional design and corporate training roles which I'd genuinely never have thought to search for myself. Booked a call with a careers advisor off the back of it, so it did its job.
Both my younger siblings used this before choosing their stream after 10th and it genuinely reduced the arguments at home about it lol. One went Science, one went Commerce, both feel more confident now that it wasn't just "because everyone does Science." Would recommend to any parent honestly.
Solid free tool. I went in skeptical of the AI-generated angle but the questions felt considered rather than templated. Docked a star only because the checkout for premium didn't clearly show the price in euros until the last step, would've liked that upfront. Otherwise no complaints, the roadmap feature afterward was a nice free add-on.
Tried Aven yourself? We'd love to hear how it went — tell us here.
