The problem it solves

Tracking emissions data, weighing reduction strategies, and producing compliance-ready ESG reports by hand takes serious staff time every month. Important trends or risks can get missed between manual updates.

Who it fits

Sustainability managers or ESG teams responsible for emissions tracking and reporting.

How it works

  1. Emissions data comes in on a schedule or in real time
  2. AI reviews the data and evaluates possible reduction strategies
  3. Approved strategies are carried out automatically or flagged for sign-off
  4. Results are combined into a report
  5. The report is sent to Slack, Google Sheets, and email
What you get

Emissions data turned into a ready report

You get a regular emissions report with reduction strategies evaluated for you, delivered to Slack, Sheets, and email.

What you get

A consolidated ESG report with emissions data and recommended actions, delivered across Slack, Sheets, and email.

What you need

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

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.
