Climate Standard

AI tools to speed up ISO audits and automate GHG reporting for companies and consultants.

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.

The Problem

Corporate Auditing: The Time and Cost Barriers of Manual ISO and GHG Certification

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.

THE SOLUTION

Revolutionizing ISO Certification with AI-Powered Audit and Carbon Tools

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).

The Impact

Cutting Emissions Reporting Costs and Accelerating Audit Timelines with AI

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 Standards created simplified compliance and reporting platforms for:

Any type of company, SME or large company
Consulting firms
Industry associations/consortia

The benefits of Climate Standard apps

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.
