Brilliant Assessments

About us

Brilliant Assessments provides a comprehensive assessment platform that immediately delivers high-quality, detailed, and focused feedback reports to the respondents and/or assessors. Our platform was built for broad use cases, ranging from individual assessments to 360 feedback, cohorts, and teams of any size.

We are committed to creating an innovative assessment platform that goes significantly further than survey or light assessment alternatives currently in the market, and we have consistently delivered on this mission.

With an exceptional development team and Customer Success managers with deep, hands-on experience managing the many facets of creating world-class assessments, we help you turn your assessment goals into reality.

Our self-service assessment platform is intuitive, efficient, and robust. We will work closely with you to help create highly innovative, beautiful, and unique assessments for your organization and its needs.

Follow-the-sun offices

We were founded in New Zealand and established our first U.S. Office in 2017 to support the North American market and our London office in 2021 to support the UK and European markets.

Simple pricing

When we set out to challenge the market of assessment platforms, we carried this through to our pricing strategy, coming in at a cost-effective level and tiering based on the volume of responses rather than features. We understand that the things that are most important to you may differ, and we didn’t want to gate parts of the product just to make a quick buck.

We’ve invested heavily in world-class support and customer success. We’re the only assessment platform that gives you the option to book a call with a real person, to get support with your assessment needs. From branding tips through to the execution of advanced calculations, we’re here to help and problem solve with you.

A brilliant team

Typhaine Banks, CEO

Typhaine brings a combination of customer success expertise, project management discipline, and deep product knowledge to her role as CEO of Brilliant Assessments.

Having previously worked closely with customers to help them get started on the platform, she understands both the big-picture goals behind an assessment and the details required to make it work beautifully in practice.

Typhaine is especially skilled in complex scoring, detailed calculations, and the finer technical elements that sit behind high-quality assessment experiences. Just as importantly, she is known for her thoughtful, practical approach — helping customers navigate setup, solve challenges, and move from idea to launch with confidence.


Developers

Each a proven 10x performer with more than two decades of experience, our developers are self-managing and singularly focused on rapid, high-quality software development.

Customer success managers

With years of business experience, these expert problem solvers and out-of-the-box thinkers are wholly dedicated to customer satisfaction.

Marketing

Consistent with our mantra of only working with the best, Brilliant Assessments outsources specialist roles such as marketing. Great marketers inevitably work in agencies, and it is a multi-skilled discipline, so it gives us access to the best people for every aspect.

Proud to be bootstrapped

Our business philosophy renders external investment unnecessary.

Our team knows from experience that the distraction of investor relations can be counterproductive. Brilliant Assessments is both self-sustaining and profitable.

Without the distraction of private equity, we relish the chance to focus on our true passion: innovating alongside customers to help grow their assessment operations. Brilliant Assessments is perpetually at the cutting edge, committed to never-ending software enhancement.
