2.3 million cells attempting to consolidate 60 business units. Minutes to open. Crashes weekly. Version control is _v2_final_FINAL.xlsx.
Enterprise GHG accounting platform · Launching 2027
GHG Book is the multi-tenant system of record for corporate carbon accounting - from field-level activity data to audit-ready disclosure across Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3, built for organizations running 20 to 100+ business units.

The problem
Multi-BU organizations manage regulated emissions data in disconnected workbooks - with no version control, no governed emission factors, and no audit trail. Regulators, investors and auditors have stopped accepting that.
2.3 million cells attempting to consolidate 60 business units. Minutes to open. Crashes weekly. Version control is _v2_final_FINAL.xlsx.
EPA, IEA, DEFRA, API Compendium - different vintages in every BU, sometimes the wrong factor entirely. Consolidated totals nobody can defend.
Who changed what, when, and why lives in inbox archives and institutional memory. Verification engagements surface it as a major finding - every year.
SEC climate rules, EU CSRD and CDP land at once, with no workflow, no at-risk visibility, and review windows compressed to nothing.
The platform
Activity data flows in from every site; governed calculation turns it into defensible tCO₂e; workflow, audit trail and reporting carry it all the way to the regulator.
Stationary & mobile combustion, flaring, venting, process and fugitive/LDAR emissions - captured at equipment level with guided, schema-driven forms.
Purchased electricity, steam, heat and cooling - calculated with both location-based and market-based methods, reported side by side.
Category 1 (purchased goods & services) at launch via spend-based and activity-based methods - all 15 categories on the roadmap.
GHG Protocol, EPA, API Compendium, DEFRA and IPCC factors pre-seeded. Every factor versioned by effective date; strict BU-override → tenant → standard resolution.
Every calculation freezes its inputs - factor version, GWP set, unit conversions, boundary approach - into a snapshot that is never rewritten.
Draft → Submitted → In Review → Approved → Locked, with automated variance checks, documented rejections and credential-confirmed approvals.
Pre-configured templates, row-level validation, staged commits, partial imports and 30-day rollback - nothing lands in production unreviewed.
Portfolio overview for managers, completion grid for reporters, evidence view for auditors - every user lands on the view built for their job.
GHG Protocol, ISO 14064-1, CDP, TCFD and GRI 305 outputs generated from approved-and-locked data only - with full generation metadata.
The workflow
Every submission moves through one canonical state machine - every transition timestamped, attributed and preserved in workflow history.
REJECTED → returns to Draft with a documented reason. Nothing disappears.
The engine
Multi-gas, unit-safe, asynchronous - and every result frozen the moment it's computed.
EtCO₂e = Σ ( AD × EFgas × GWPgas )
The audit trail
An append-only ledger where every entry is SHA-256 hash-chained to the one before it. Break one link and the daily integrity check tells you exactly where.

The people
HEAD OF GHG REPORTING
Real-time status across every BU, one governed factor library, evidence packages in clicks. Admin overhead: 15h → 3h a week.
REGIONAL SUSTAINABILITY
A review queue with anomaly flags and prior-period variance already computed. A full-day review becomes ~45 min.
FIELD OPERATIONS
Guided forms, automatic unit conversion, live calculation preview, drafts that survive interruptions. 3h → 35 min per period.
EXTERNAL ASSURANCE
Read-only access to everything, frozen calculation snapshots, self-service evidence. Engagements end with zero major findings.
Compliance
Report templates and methodology built against the standards your regulators, investors and verifiers actually ask for.
Industries
Nothing industry-specific is hardcoded - emission sources, calculation rules and factor libraries are configuration. We simply start where the accounting is hardest.
40+ pre-configured source categories: stationary & mobile combustion, flaring by gas composition, venting, fugitive/LDAR by component type, process emissions, purchased energy and refrigerants - with OGMP 2.0 methane tiers.
Security & trust
PostgreSQL row-level security, a request-context guard, independent ORM-level tenant filtering and role-and-node authorization - four independent layers between any two organizations.
AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit, MFA for privileged roles and enterprise SSO via OIDC/SAML.
SOC 2 Type II design readiness, OWASP Top 10 coverage, quarterly penetration testing, WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility and a 99.9% uptime SLA.
Roadmap
Full Scope 1/2 + Scope 3 Category 1, the O&G template, enterprise clients with 50+ BUs - and zero major findings across client verifications.
Manufacturing, Utilities and Financial Services templates, all 15 Scope 3 categories, ERP/SCADA integration APIs and multi-language UI.
AI-assisted anomaly detection and forecasting, carbon offset and SBTi target tracking, multi-region data residency at hundreds of tenants.
Before the first line of interface
We didn't design GHG Book by shipping screens and patching the data model around them. Every table, every endpoint, every audit invariant and access-control boundary was specified, reviewed, and ratified - with the alternatives we rejected written down - before an interface existed. It's a slower way to start a product. It's also why an auditor will be able to trust what we build.
Early access
We're onboarding a limited number of design partners ahead of the May 2027 launch. Early-access organizations shape the roadmap and lock in founding terms.
