Problem
UK businesses face complex, mandatory environmental reporting requirements, including SECR and CSRD, which demand accurate carbon footprint measurement across Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. Simultaneously, developers and local authorities must navigate the legal requirement to deliver Biodiversity Net Gain, a process complicated by the difficulty of finding verified, qualified biodiversity units to purchase.
Solution
Gaia offers two integrated platforms to streamline environmental compliance and delivery. Gaia Carbon Accounting is an AI-powered software that automates the collection of emissions data and generates compliance-ready reports, such as SECR and CSRD, with built-in best practices. Gaia BNG Marketplace is the UK's largest marketplace for natural capital assets, providing a network of over 1,500 registered buyers access to qualified, ready-to-purchase biodiversity units. The company also offers Gaia Enterprise, a white-labelled natural capital exchange and management software for organisations like local authorities to manage and market their own environmental assets.
Target Audience
Primary customers are UK businesses subject to mandatory carbon reporting regulations, as well as property developers, local authorities, and landowners who need to buy or sell biodiversity units to meet BNG compliance and environmental goals.
