The Friendship Audit is a free tool that gives you a plain read on each of your friendships individually: name up to eight people, answer a few honest questions about each one, and get back a plain read for every one — load-bearing, worth the effort, steady, or held together mostly by proximity. No account, and nothing you type ever leaves your browser.
No. The whole tool runs in your browser. The names you enter and the answers you give are never transmitted to NexSpark, there is no account and no email, and this page carries no analytics. You can open your browser's network tab and check while you use it.
One is enough. The tool works with anything from a single person up to eight. A short honest list is more useful than a padded one, and naming only one or two people is a common and perfectly valid answer.
No, and it is built specifically not to. There are no scores, no rankings and no verdicts. It describes each friendship in plain language and leaves every decision to you. Noticing that a friendship costs you something is not the same as ending it.
It is an honest look at who is actually in your corner: who initiates, who shows up when it is inconvenient, who you can relax around, and who you have been meaning to call. Our longer piece on what a friendship audit is covers the idea in full.
There is no result sharing, on purpose. Your results are a set of judgments about named real people who did not agree to be assessed, so publishing them is not something we want to make easy. You can download your own copy to keep.
