How It Works

Intuitive workflow

Setup

Configure the standards that apply to you

  • Select the reporting frameworks your organisation is subject to, CSRD, VSME, GRI or CDP, and activate only what applies.

  • Define your reporting boundary, period and organizational scope once. It applies consistently across all active frameworks.

  • Gap detection identifies missing data points before you start filling disclosures. You know what needs to be collected.

Data Backbone

One data model, every report

  • Your emission inventory feeds every active framework simultaneously. Scope 1, 2 and 3 data entered once, reported everywhere.

  • Quantitative metrics and qualitative disclosures draw from the same source.

  • When your underlying data changes, every active report updates automatically.

Workflow

Manage the report like a project, not a fire drill

  • Assign disclosure sections to team members with deadlines and approval workflows. Finance, legal, operations and sustainability in one place.

  • Track completion status per disclosure, per framework and per reporting period, so nothing reaches the auditor unreviewed.

  • Full audit trail.  Every edit logged with timestamp and author. When the auditor asks who changed what and when, the platform answers.

Output

Export in the format your auditor or regulator wants

  • Export to PDF for final submission, DOCX for review and internal editing, CSV for data sharing with auditors or regulators.

  • Version control keeps your full draft history clean and accessible. No overwritten files.

  • Export at any stage of completion. Share a draft for external review without waiting until every disclosure is filled.

Five ways to import data

Five ways to get your emission data into CarbonTool. Start with one, add more as your process matures.

Audit-ready CSRD (all ESRS topics)

CarbonTool structures CSRD disclosures across all ESRS topics. Quantitative emission data and qualitative narrative disclosures from the same data backbone. Gap detection flags missing data points before submission. Every disclosure has a full audit trail. Version control keeps draft history clean. The output is what your statutory auditor needs to verify, not a formatted summary for internal review.

CarbonTool currently supports CSRD, VSME, GRI 305 and related GRI Standards, CDP climate change and ISSB (IFRS S1/S2) disclosures. All frameworks draw from the same underlying emission inventory, Data entered once populates every active framework without duplicate entry or separate data preparation.

Yes. CarbonTool structures CSRD disclosures to the standard required for statutory audit with full data provenance back to source, audit trail for every change and gap detection before submission. The platform does not replace your auditor, but it produces the structured, traceable output that third-party verifiers need to review your sustainability statement efficiently.

When you activate a reporting framework in CarbonTool, the platform maps your current inventory against every required disclosure data point. Missing or incomplete data points are flagged before you begin filling disclosures, so you know what needs to be collected or estimated before the reporting process starts, rather than discovering gaps under deadline pressure.

Yes. CarbonTool's workflow module allows disclosure sections to be assigned to specific team members (finance for energy cost data, legal for governance disclosures, operations for process emissions) with individual deadlines and approval steps. Each contribution is logged with timestamp and author. The report owner has a live view of completion status across every disclosure, framework and reporting period.

It depends on your size and the final Omnibus thresholds adopted by the EU. Many previously in-scope companies now fall under VSME instead of full CSRD; others remain subject to CSRD on a delayed timeline. CarbonTool structures your data for VSME today so you can scale to full CSRD reporting later without rebuilding your inventory.

CSRD is the mandatory EU directive for large and listed companies, covering full ESRS double materiality disclosures. VSME is the voluntary standard for SMEs facing investor, bank or client ESG requests without a CSRD mandate. CarbonTool structures both from the same data backbone, so a company can start with VSME and scale to CSRD without rebuilding.
