Automate sustainability reporting across teams and data sources

Pulls sustainability data from multiple sources, scores it, routes approvals, and sends stakeholder reports.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Every path runs; a person has to approve before it continues.

The problem it solves

Sustainability reporting usually means chasing data from different systems, spreadsheets, and team submissions before you can even start writing a report. Getting sign-off from the right people adds another round of emails and follow-ups. By the time a report goes out, the underlying data may already be outdated.

Who it fits

Corporate sustainability, ESG, or circular economy teams that need to consolidate reporting.

How it works

  1. Sustainability data arrives from scheduled monitoring, an external data feed, or a submitted form
  2. AI merges the inputs and calculates circular economy and sustainability scores
  3. Governance approvals are requested and tracked through Slack
  4. Documentation is generated and results are combined into a final report
  5. A stakeholder report is emailed out and a summary is posted to Slack
What you get

Sustainability data pulled into one place

You get consolidated sustainability data, scoring, and stakeholder reports without chasing every team.

What you get

A consolidated stakeholder sustainability report and a Slack summary notification.

What you need

An OpenAI API key, a Slack workspace, a Gmail account, and Google Sheets.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
