Pytheus Score

The Pytheus Score is your headline 0 to 100 number, a weighted composite of maturity, goal alignment, coverage, and execution.

Last updated September 22, 2026

The Pytheus Score is the single headline number for your program, on a 0 to 100 scale. It exists because maturity alone does not tell the whole story. A program can be mature on the wrong things, leave large areas unassessed, or set targets it never executes against. The Pytheus Score folds those factors in.

What goes into it

Pytheus Intelligence combines four weighted components:

  • Org Score: your criticality-weighted maturity across in-scope capabilities. This is the how-mature dimension.

  • Goal Alignment: how well your current state tracks against the targets you set.

  • Coverage: how much of the relevant capability surface you have actually assessed and activated.

  • Execution Discipline: whether you are following through, blended from recommendation resolution, assessment recency, and roadmap progress.

Org Score carries the most weight, because maturity is the truest measure of how your program performs today. The other three keep the number honest, so a high Org Score cannot mask thin coverage or stalled execution.

Why it matters

The Pytheus Score is built for the conversation with leadership where you need one defensible figure. Because each component is explicit and weighted, you can always decompose the number and show what is pulling it up or holding it back. It is shown on your dashboard alongside a trajectory chart, your largest gaps, and what changed recently.

If your Pytheus Score trails your Org Score, the gap usually lives in coverage, alignment, or execution. Look there before reassessing maturity.

Org Score is detailed in Org Score, and the reasons this number stays stable run by run are covered in why scores are deterministic.
