Layer 01 — Ingest
Any source, clean inputs.
No perfect data required. Convert PDFs, reports, and filings into structured, analysis-ready data.
Any document — PDFs, Word docs, spreadsheets, and more. No manual prep required.
Structured automatically — tables, footnotes, and appendices are extracted so everything is consistent and ready for analysis.
Scale without effort — from one company to hundreds, no additional work.
Fully traceable — every data point links back to its original source from the start.
Supported source types
Sustainability Reports
Annual Reports
CDP Responses
Regulatory Filings
Questionnaires
Private Data
Layer 02 — Define
Define the criteria. Control the outcome.
Start with a clear, auditable methodology. Use our packages or build your own. Every assessment is applied consistently, every time.
Pre-built packages — ready-to-use criteria for assessments across GHG emissions, physical risk, net zero, supply chain, and more.
Custom methodologies — define your own criteria, weightings, and scoring logic without code.
Aligned to standards — map directly to CSRD, ISSB, TCFD, GRI, and other regulations and standards.
Repeatable and consistent — apply the same criteria at scale across entities, engagements, and portfolios.

Layer 03 — Assess
AI that evaluates, not just answers.
Apply your methodology to every document. Extract findings, cross-reference sources, score against criteria, and cite every claim. No hallucinations. No black box.
Multi-source triangulation — findings are validated across multiple documents, not pulled from a single source.
Structured scoring — every data point is scored with a confidence level and linked evidence.
Criteria-based evaluation — every finding is evaluated against your defined methodology.
Fully auditable — every finding is linked to cited, source-level evidence.
<2 hrs
To assess 100 companies across 100 data points. The same work manually takes +2 weeks.
Layer 04 — Review
Decision-ready, defensible findings.
Results flow into your existing workflows. Explore, validate, and share findings in the formats your team already uses.
Tailored delivery — access insights in the format each stakeholder needs.
Flexible access — explore results via dashboards, exports, APIs, or MCP-connected agents.
Audit trail — drill from high-level findings into underlying source evidence.
