For organisations
You are not short of people. You are one person deep.
Headcount tells you how many. Caterpi tells you how deep: which capabilities your team can lose a person and still deliver, and which ones walk out of the door with one resignation.
Hallmark Retail · Marketing
14 people · aggregate view
5 of 12 capabilities have the depth we need · 3 partly covered · 4 with no verified holder
Three measures, read separately
Most tools give you one score, which hides the interesting case: a team that works well with capabilities it cannot replace.
Number one
Capability coverage: how deep
For each capability the job role needs, how many people hold it at the target level, against how many you need. One expert counts once, so a bus factor of one reads as a gap.
Number two
Resilience: what survives a departure
Remove the strongest holder and recompute. What still meets the depth you set is what the team can rely on when someone leaves.
Number three
Practice maturity: how the work happens
Five dimensions per function, and five stages from Seed to Forest. Gated, not averaged, so strong technology cannot carry weak people and process. It is a description, not a grade, and a different number from coverage.
Five dimensions, every function
Hallmark Marketing sits at Sapling, repeatable, held there by People and capability at 2.7. Self-declared in 22 minutes, and evidence is optional.
Consent is the product, not a setting
If people believe a verification can be used against them, they will not sit one, and your data is worthless. So the defaults are not negotiable.
Aggregate by default
You see depth, not who holds what — unless each person releases their name to you.
Declining is invisible
You invite, and you are told how many accepted. You are not told who declined.
The Passport is theirs
Levels stay with the person when they leave. That is the trade that makes them willing to be measured.
Start with one team and one job role
A walkthrough takes ~40 minutes and uses your own role, not a demo dataset. You leave knowing which capabilities you are one person deep on.
