The Challenge

Scope 3 Is 70-90% of Your Carbon Footprint. Yet Almost Entirely Invisible.

Most organisations rely on static, spend-based estimates that fail auditors, regulators, and boards alike.

📂
87%
Unverified Estimates

Of companies use generic spend-based emission factors with no supplier-level validation — exposing them to greenwashing risk and regulatory scrutiny.

🔗
Reporting Effort Overhead

Manual supplier outreach and reconciliation consumes sustainability teams for months each reporting cycle — with inconsistent results each time.

⚠️
$6B
Regulatory Exposure

Global fines and restatements from CSRD, SEC Climate, and CBAM non-compliance are accelerating — and procurement data is the first line of scrutiny.

The Platform

Three Layers of Procurement-led Intelligence

A progressive intelligence stack — start with accurate baseline, then continuously improve with real supplier data and ESG signals.

Layer 01
Foundation

Scope 3 Baseline Engine

Connect procurement systems and automatically classify spend into Scope 3 categories using AI-mapped emission factors — in days, not months.

  • ERP & P2P native connectors (SAP, Coupa, Oracle)
  • Automated UNSPSC → GHG category mapping
  • Multi-database emission factor library
  • PCAF & GHG Protocol compliant outputs
  • Full audit-ready data lineage
Layer 02
Dynamic

Supplier Data Collaboration

Replace static estimates with live supplier-submitted data. Automate outreach, track responses, and upgrade data quality scores continuously.

  • Supplier self-service data portal
  • Product-level emission factor capture (PCFs)
  • Data quality tier scoring: spend → hybrid → primary
  • Automated follow-up workflows & reminders
  • Supplier progress dashboards & benchmarks
Layer 03
Intelligence

Supplier ESG & Risk Signals

Make procurement decisions with a full view of supplier ESG performance, climate risk exposure, and regulatory posture — all in one place.

  • Third-party ESG rating integration (EcoVadis, CDP)
  • Physical climate risk overlays (TCFD-aligned)
  • Regulatory compliance tracking (CSRD, CBAM, LkSG)
  • Supplier decarbonisation roadmap scoring
  • Procurement decision intelligence alerts

Process

From Raw Spend to Verified Climate Intelligence

📥
Step 01

Connect & Ingest

Sync spend data from your ERP, P2P, and finance systems via pre-built connectors. No manual exports needed.

🧠
Step 02

Classify & Quantify

AI maps spend to GHG Protocol categories and applies the most precise emission factor for each supplier-spend pair.

🤝
Step 03

Engage Suppliers

Automated outreach collects product-level data, replacing estimates and continuously upgrading your data quality score.

📈
Step 04

Report & Decide

Export audit-ready disclosures (CSRD, CDP, SBTi) and drive supplier selection with ESG intelligence.

AI Layer

AI-Powered.
Human-Validated.

Our intelligence engine automates classification, factor matching, anomaly detection and supplier outreach — while keeping your team in control of every decision that matters.

🔍

Spend Classification AI

Maps line-item spend descriptions to GHG Protocol categories with 94%+ accuracy using fine-tuned language models.

📡

Emission Factor Matching

Selects the most granular, geographically appropriate emission factor from a curated multi-database library — automatically.

⚠️

Anomaly & Risk Detection

Flags data outliers, sudden supplier footprint changes, and regulatory risk signals before they become reporting problems.
