With brain data, you choose the right talent, prevent mismatches, and invest in future talent


From talent to high-performer
What we do

From talent to high-performer

Want to spot exceptional talent before anyone else? BrainsFirst makes cognitive abilities measurable and predictable. We provide an objective view of a person's cognitive power and growth potential. How? By looking beyond a resume or work experience and truly understanding the brain.

We are the only ones in the market who work with real scientists, real data, and real proof. No empty promises or vague theories, just hard scientific insights that fundamentally change your decisions.

With our personalized Brain Profiles, we don't just predict performance; we also identify what development someone needs to unlock their full potential. We do this for people starting at age 12 in youth academies, students without work experience, and ambitious starters who lack the experience and credentials. We also help people who want to change their careers completely. When there's little on paper to go by, the brain helps us discover what's truly there. This makes growth a tangible and achievable result.

The brains behind strong teamwork
What we do

The brains behind strong teamwork

Every team is different, but why does one team work seamlessly while another struggles? At BrainsFirst, we show how every brain is unique. From quick decision-makers to thorough thinkers, from creative minds to analytical planners. By understanding these differences, you leverage the unique qualities each team member brings to the table. This leads to less miscommunication, more understanding, and a workplace where everyone thrives.

Talent identification for growth and mobility
What we do

Talent identification for growth and mobility

BrainsFirst uncovers hidden talents, skills, and competencies within your team. Employees are often unaware of these abilities, which they can turn into real superpowers with the right attention and training. This helps you identify logical next steps and who can take unexpected paths to develop skills your organization will need in the future. You probably already have the best talent in-house, you just don't know exactly where it is. Our insights give you a completely new view of your organization, where everyone is seen for what they are truly capable of, not just what they're doing now.

Full-service approach

Our platform combines game-based brain measurements with scientific precision to reveal people's hidden learning potential. Our games are developed and validated entirely in-house, meaning they've been carefully tested and verified to deliver reliable results. Through our NeurOlympics, you discover how someone processes information, makes decisions under pressure, and develops new skills. It also shows which natural skills and abilities best fit their brain and how to develop them optimally. These are the real building blocks of talent and far more important than what's on a resume. With our insights, you can make better choices, from selection to development.

Pieter TalsmaTalent & Employability Manager, Atos

If you know what you’re capable of, you can achieve a career breakthrough. Through the Employability Center at Atos and Eviden, we successfully implemented BrainsFirst to help employees who are losing their jobs internally due to automation and offshoring. This gave them insight into their natural talents, which they could then use to find a suitable new role.
