Our Methodology

We get it, running a business can be like juggling flaming torches while riding a unicycle on a tightrope. That's why we've designed our carbon accounting software to be your safety net, catching you with an interface so user-friendly, it's like slicing through warm butter.

Imagine our calculation methodology as a friendly neighbourhood spider, weaving a seamless web between our software and your existing accounting application. You're just one step away from getting started on this fascinating journey.

Worried about the data collection? Fear no more! Our super-smart software will dive into your reconciled data and direct costs, crafting an initial automated footprint for you. It's like having a personal data butler, saving you from hours of manual data collection.

Imagine it as a magical toolbox that transforms the simple numbers of your spending into an exciting estimation of carbon dioxide equivalents.

We call this the 'spend-based' method of estimating emissions, a nifty term we borrowed from the GHG Protocol. It's like converting your shopping receipts into climate impact numbers!

We gather data from different, trusted, GHG Protocol aligned sources to help with our calculations and reports.

For certain aspects of the GHG emissions protocol, like energy usage or vehicle usage, we've found that an activity-based method can be more accurate than a spend-based one. It's like comparing a GPS to a treasure map; both can lead to the treasure, but one just might be a little more precise!

So, we roll up our detective sleeves and ask a handful of questions related to your business activities. Don't worry, we won't interrogate you under a bright light! These are just simple queries to help our system understand your business better.
