Which free ADHD and autism tests ask for your email?
We took 32 of the free ADHD and autism tests in the top 20 Google results in the US, one at a time, and noted what each asked for before showing a result. 24 showed a result without an email. 5 would not show one until we gave an email or agreed to marketing.
By NeuroType · Updated
What we found
- 24 of 32 showed a result on screen without asking for an email. 7 of those offered to email a copy as an option.
- 4 required an email address, and usually a name, before any result. Two of the four say they send the result by email rather than on screen.
- 1 would not finish unless you agreed to receive marketing emails, texts and phone calls.
- 1 showed only a newsletter sign-up where its questions should have been.
- 2 could not be checked because a bot check stopped the automated browser.
- Of the 24 that showed a result, 18 gave a number and 6 gave only a band or a sentence. Three gave a free score and charged for more detail, from US$3.50 to $17.

How we checked
On 9 November 2026 we searched Google in the US for “free adhd test adults online” and “free autism test adults online” and took the first 20 results for each. We left out information pages, a children's screener, second entries from the same site, and a handful of others we did not get to. Where a result was a hub page, we took its main adult test. That left 32 tests from sites in the US, UK, Canada, Australia and Denmark.
Each test was taken once in an automated browser, choosing a middle answer to every question. We never typed an email, name or phone number, never created an account, never paid, and never gave marketing consent. Where a page asked for details, we stopped there and recorded what it asked. Every row was then checked by hand against a screenshot.
The limits are real. This is one run per site on one day. Sites change, and at least one showed a different version of its test on a second visit. A page may treat higher scores differently from the middle answers we gave. Bot checks stopped two sites, and those could behave quite differently for a person. Nothing here says a site is careless with data: we only recorded what each page asked for.
NeuroType makes its own free ADHD and autism tests, so we are not a neutral party. Our tests are not counted in the 32, and the tables do not rank anyone.
Free tests on this site
Both show your result on screen with no email or account, and your answers stay in your browser. Neither is a diagnosis.
Frequently asked questions
Why do some free tests ask for your email?
Many free tests are run by clinics or services that sell assessments, so an email address lets them follow up. That is a normal business model. It is still worth knowing before you answer personal questions, because once a clinic has your email it can usually contact you about its services.
How can I tell before I start?
Look for a line near the start that says whether results are shown on screen or emailed. Pages that email results nearly always ask for an address at the end. In this check, two pages said one thing and did another: one said details were needed and showed a result without them, and one hid its questions behind a newsletter form.
Does a free test that asks for nothing give a better result?
Not necessarily. Whether a page asks for your email says nothing about the questionnaire itself. Several of the tests that asked for details used the same published scales as tests that did not. A screener result is a starting point either way, not a diagnosis.
Does NeuroType ask for an email?
No. The ADHD test and the autism test on this site show your result on screen with no email or account, and your answers stay in your browser. NeuroType is not one of the 32 tests counted here, and we have an obvious interest in this topic, which is why the method and every source link are on this page.
Can any of these tests diagnose ADHD or autism?
No. None of them can. Formal assessment requires a qualified professional who can look at your history, daily life and other explanations.
Safety note
Screening tests can surface patterns; they can't confirm or rule out a condition. Take any concerns about your mental health or neurodevelopment to a qualified clinician.
