Who really carries more at home?

A three-minute mental load test that counts the invisible half too — the noticing, the deciding, the remembering.

What this mental load test measures

A fair split is not an equal count of tasks. This test measures two things at once: how long each task takes, and the mental load behind it — noticing it needs doing, deciding when, and remembering it every week. You answer about your own household and get a load profile for both partners. No sign-up, no e-mail.

How long does the quiz take?

About three minutes. There is no account and no e-mail — the result is worked out in your browser and shown straight away.

What is the mental load?

The invisible half of housework: noticing a task exists, deciding when and how it gets done, and carrying the deadline in your head. Two people can tick off the same number of tasks and still carry very different mental loads.

Is a 50/50 split the goal?

No. Households differ in working hours, health and life stage. The goal is a split both partners recognise as fair, which is why the quiz gives you a profile rather than a verdict.

Is the mental load test meant for couples?

Yes. It shows the most when each of you answers separately — you both answer the same questions about the same household, and it is the comparison that reveals where you see the load differently. On your own you still get your own picture, just without the second view.

What do I get at the end?

A score for how unevenly things are split at your place and a load profile by area — physical time and mental load counted separately. The breakdown by area and your first concrete step unlock with an email.
