What your team sees
This page exists because the person being asked to use Capysaurus deserves a straight answer, not a privacy-policy footnote. If your manager just sent you a link to this page, that’s the point: read it, and decide for yourself.
What we show your manager — and you
Every number your manager sees about you, you see too. Same dashboard, same history. There is no manager-only view of your capacity data, no hidden report, no export that shows up in a room you’re not in. If your manager can look at how stretched you are this month, you can look at the exact same screen — right now, not on request.
That’s not a policy we’re promising to uphold. It’s how the product is built: one capacity picture, shared.
What we measure
We measure effort — the size of the work your team agrees on together. Never hours. Never keystrokes. Never “active time.” A task’s effort score is a conversation your team has and revisits, not a number a computer infers by watching what you click.
If it isn’t something the two of you could agree on out loud, we don’t measure it.
What we will never build
These are commitments, not roadmap gaps. Each one is a sentence because that’s all it should take:
- We will never build timers.
- We will never build screenshots.
- We will never build activity or idle tracking.
- We will never build sentiment analysis of your messages.
- We will never build performance-review exports.
- We will never build per-person time-variance reports.
- We will never build AI that scores you — our AI preps better questions from data you can already see, and it never judges people.
Why managers use it anyway
Here’s the honest version: managers don’t adopt Capysaurus because they want more visibility into you. They adopt it because guessing is worse. Without a shared picture, every manager is left guessing at the same two questions — is someone on the team silently drowning, and can we take on more work without breaking somebody. Guess wrong on the first one and a good person burns out quietly. Guess wrong on the second and the team gets buried.
Everyone else either ignores workload, or infers it by watching your work tools and reporting up to the boss. Capysaurus puts the same explicit capacity picture in front of the worker and the manager. Not a guess. Not a report about you sent somewhere you can’t see it — the same page, in front of both of you, at the same time.
Hold us to it
This page is versioned in public. When something on it changes, the version date at the top changes with it — we’re not going to quietly edit this page and hope nobody notices. If you ever think we’ve drifted from what’s written here, that’s a fair thing to ask us about directly.
