The startup developed 2 products: an AI-powered app to certify companies using the ISO standards, becoming the first digital verification body, and a carbon accounting app.
8 weeks
waiting time for an audit to obtain an ISO certification, and the inspection is done manually. € 2.000-10.000 is the 2025 cost for the accounting of a small and medium company's carbon footprint.
At the European level, obtaining a certification requires the involvement of a certification body; it is a totally manual process and takes approximately 8 weeks. While for carbon accounting, there are no completely free-of-charge solutions.
Climate Standard is the first digital verification body. Climate Standard developed an AI-powered app to certify companies using the ISO standards. Climate Standard also developed the first freemium and easy-to-use app to calculate companies’ carbon footprint for ISO 14064 and GHG Protocol using free datasets (for SMEs) and paid datasets (for consulting activities).
40%
Time savings for audits. And up to 100% cost reduction for a carbon footprint calculation that can be transferred to carbon reduction investments.
The audit platform makes it possible to democratise certification, reducing barriers such as cost, time and stress. Even less experienced companies can aim to acquire ISO certifications and thus give transparency to their activities. Instead, the accounting platform allows any company to calculate carbon emissions by creating a process that leads to maximum simplification of this activity, while maintaining very high calculation standards.
Climate Standard, with its audit app, can verify sustainability claims in a matter of days. Reducing the stress on the company involved, reducing audit costs and time and also reducing potential errors during the audit. The accounting app, on the other hand, allows auditing at no cost if one wants to use the free databases and at a much lower cost than building one's own calculation system based on paid databases, if one wants to use the latter.
