Software Integrations and Calculation Engine API
We help you extend your work to include carbon emission calculations or carbon reports either in your software solution or by linking with ours. Partners rely on our methodology and subject expertise and benefit from continual updates.
Bespoke software integrations
There is increasing demand to share carbon data between different software platforms and organisations to increase consistency and reduce data entry. Our system can integrate with other platforms and users can then choose to reuse their carbon data elsewhere whilst retaining clear ownership and control. If you want to add carbon reports and data into your software or discuss any bespoke software or data solution please contact us.
