The Live Growth Record
One live record behind every business.
Every business has one evidence-backed record of where it stands, what has been verified, what support it has received, what is still missing and what should happen next. Applications, check-ins, documents, mentor notes, interventions and outcomes all write back to the same record.
- The businesssees its current position and exact next action.
- The programme teamsees the full history of evidence, support and progress.
- Funders and buyerssee evidence before review, not claims after the fact.
Mothusi Growth Score
Similar scores should not lead to the same decision.
The score shows current business health. The verified tier shows the maturity foundations the business has established.
Two points apart.

Evidence to movement
One closed loop turns business signals into verified movement.
At the business level, each signal becomes a precise next action and an evidence-backed decision. Across the cohort, the same records reveal recurring blockers, guide intervention and show whether the response worked.
The Live Growth Record
The source, lever, action, evidence, decision and outcome remain connected.
Then the cycle continues.
- 01Signal capturedA check-in, document, AI conversation, mentor note or field visit is time-stamped and attached to the Live Growth Record.
- 02Lever and evidence assessedMothusi maps the signal to the relevant MGS lever, checks its freshness and consistency, and identifies what evidence is still missing.
- 03Business guidedThe owner sees what is blocking movement, why it matters, what evidence is required and the next action to complete.
- 04Evidence pre-checkedMissing pages, stale documents, mismatched names and unsupported claims are identified before the submission reaches a reviewer.
- 05A person decidesAn authorised mentor, field officer or reviewer approves, returns or escalates the submission. Verified gates move only on authorised sign-off.
- 06Individual movement recordedThe decision, evidence and reviewer are written to the Growth Record. The verified score or tier updates only where the MGS methodology allows.
- 07Cohort pattern surfacesRepeated open levers become named, countable portfolio issues. Thirty-nine of 124 businesses are blocked by the same requirement.
- 08Targeted response approvedThe programme manager approves the appropriate response: reviewers for evidence-ready businesses and targeted technical assistance for those that need support.
- 09Intervention impact verifiedImpact is measured through verified lever clearance, not attendance. Twenty-nine businesses cleared the requirement; the remaining ten retain a named next action.

For institutions
One operating view. Three ways to act on it.
Run programmes against measurable movement
Baseline the cohort, assign support against stuck levers and report verified outcomes.
Programme delivery & learning →Deploy capital against current evidence
Screen authorised records, prepare source-linked cases and monitor capital alongside business health.
Funding & portfolios →Operate networks and agriculture systems
Match credible supply to real demand and track production, needs and outcomes from current records.
Ecosystems, marketplace & agriculture →Proof
