Three modules

One platform for the three questions every HR team is asked.

Which skills do we need to build? How good are our leaders, and who is ready next? Who should we hire? Use one module or all three; they share one people list and one way of reporting.

Capabilities IQ

A training needs analysis that starts from your strategy.

  • Strategy first. Weight your strategic objectives, or paste your strategy text, and see the skill areas it calls for before anyone rates anything.
  • The right skills per department. 16 to 24 skills from a 539-skill register, each with the reason it was picked, and expected levels set by grade.
  • Two views of the gap. Department heads rate their area on a five-level ruler; employees build their own 70-20-10 plans with their managers.
  • A plan the board signs off. Fix first, build on and watch, with a 12-month programme plan, department decks and individual plans.

Built on organisation, task and person analysis (McGehee & Thayer) and the 70-20-10 model (Lombardo & Eichinger).

Where the gaps sitExample organisation

Tap a cell. Each number is a department's average priority for a skill group, from 0 to 10: higher means a bigger gap on skills the strategy needs.

Our approach

The best of the research, made practical for your organisation.

We did not invent new psychology. We took the models with the strongest published evidence, made them practical for organisations in any sector, and made every result explainable.

Proven science

HEXACO personality, adaptive reasoning, situational judgement, the Competing Values Framework and 360 practice, each cited to its source.

Local where it matters

Arabic and English, set up with your own departments, levels and values. Built first in the Gulf, with skills for national priorities such as In-Country Value.

Explainable by design

Every finding is written by fixed rules from the computed results, so each sentence ties to a number on a later page. Results show likely ranges.

AI-assisted, never AI-scored

AI drafts skill sets and maps your strategy text to objectives, and you approve every suggestion. It never produces a score or makes a decision about a person.

One platform

Start with one module. Add the others when you're ready.

  • One people listEmployees, levels and managers entered once and used by every module, from Excel or one by one.
  • Personal links, no accountsOnly your HR team signs in. Employees, raters, candidates and interviewers use a personal link.
  • Views for executivesGive leaders a view-only sign-in to read results and download reports without changing anything.

Reports

Reports your board will actually read.

Every report opens with what the results mean, then shows the evidence. All of them are editable PowerPoint, ready to brand and present. These pages come straight from the platform, for a fictional organisation.

What this means, first

A plain-language summary and three key findings come before any chart, so a busy reader gets the point in a minute.

Every sentence traceable

Findings are written by fixed rules from the numbers, never by AI, so you can always show where a statement came from.

Yours to edit

Every report is a PowerPoint file you can edit, brand and present. Nothing is locked in a PDF.

For candidates and employees

An experience people finish.

Most people take assessments on their phone, so every page is built for one. Answers save as they go, so a lost connection never loses work.

  • Consent and a clear privacy notice before anyone answers a question.
  • Arabic and English, switchable on every page.
  • Extra time of 25%, 50% or 100% for anyone who needs an adjustment.
  • A personal feedback report for every candidate, released when HR is ready.
Work personality: choose the statement most and least like you

Hard to fakeChoose the statement most and least like you, in blocks of three.

Numerical reasoning question with a timer

Adaptive reasoningQuestions get harder after correct answers.

A candidate's feedback report

Feedback they keepStrengths, areas to develop and matching careers.

Evidence base

Standing on the strongest research.

Each part of MaharatIQ uses a model with decades of published evidence behind it. These are the sources we build on.

Privacy and security

People's data, handled with care.

  • Consent firstEvery candidate, employee and rater sees who runs the assessment, what is collected and their rights, and agrees before answering.
  • Data rightsFind, export or erase a person's data in a few clicks, with retention periods you set.
  • Separate by designEach organisation's data is kept apart, and raters in groups of three or more stay anonymous.
  • HostingHosted in Frankfurt, Germany (EU), with encrypted connections throughout.
  • AccessHR admins and view-only executives sign in; everyone else uses a personal link.
How a pilot works

From first call to board report.

  1. Kick-offChoose the module, the roles or departments, and the dates. We agree how results will be used.
  2. Set-upWe create your organisation and your HR admins. You add people from Excel or one by one.
  3. RunPersonal links go out by email from the platform. You follow progress live and send reminders.
  4. ReviewWe walk through the reports with you and agree what to calibrate for the full roll-out.
