Show HN: TheNext.CEO – Discover your CEO Archetype in 15 minutes

I've been obsessed with a simple question for years: "what kind of CEO am I really built to be - and how does that shape the way I make decisions, hire and build companies?"

Most founders / CEOs content is generic. Yet in practice, very different archetype win: * some CEOs are visionary storytellers. * Some are executions-obsessed operators * Some are product monomaniacs * Some are community / Culture builders

So I built TheNext.CEO - a free, web based CEO archetype assessment platform that tries to capture how you lead, not just "your personality type".

What it does

* Asks you 98 questions across areas like:

- Decision-making style - Risk appetite - Product vs sales vs ops focus - People / culture priorities - Time horizon and ambition

* Maps you into a CEO archetype (e.g. “Visionary Builder”, “Operator-in-Chief”, etc.).

* Gives you:

- A short, skimmable summary of your archetype - Key strengths and blind spots - Suggestions on what kind of team or co-founder might complement you.

The core test is free and runs fully in the browser (no tricks, no paywall required to see your archetype).

What I’m looking for from HN

I’d really appreciate feedback from this community on:

1. Scoring and archetypes

- Does the result feel directionally accurate or completely off? - Are there any questions that feel leading / confusing / redundant? - Any archetype description that feels like hand-wavy fluff?

2. UX / flow

- Is 98 questions “too much”, or is it acceptable if the value is clear? - Any rough edges where you felt like dropping off?

3. Technical / product ideas

- If you’ve built similar assessment tools, what went wrong for you? - Is there anything obviously dangerous or naive in the way I’m approaching this?

4. Future directions

- I’m considering: team-level reports (e.g. “your founding team’s archetype mix”), more granular reports, and anonymized aggregate “state of CEOs” reports. - What would actually be useful vs just “fun”?

It’s an MVP, so I fully expect rough edges. Please be brutal and honest – especially about the questions, the logic, and the usefulness of the result. I’ll hang around in the comments to answer anything and iterate based on feedback.
