Problem
Many small and midsize businesses lack affordable tools to calculate their carbon emissions, assess climate‑risk, and generate regulatory‑compliant sustainability reports, especially when their financial data resides in accounting software like QuickBooks.

Using AI‑driven calculations, the system produces emissions totals, climate‑risk scores, and audit‑ready reports that meet disclosure requirements. The platform offers instant onboarding with no manual data entry, and all assumptions and inputs are fully transparent and traceable for stakeholder confidence. Generated reports can be shared externally or used internally for strategy, certification, and tax purposes. Additionally, the solution includes a marketplace of vetted partners that help businesses act on the insights and improve their sustainability performance.
