Built for messy enterprise data

Altruistiq Data has been designed for the reality of enterprise sustainability data – inconsistent naming, mixed formats, legacy systems, and incomplete fields.

We automatically handle data transformation and classification using AI. Your data stays in Altruistiq's ISO 27001-certified environment, always.

Not a rigid template system
Altruistiq doesn't force you into predefined formats. It adapts to your data structure, whether that's disconnected Excels, ERP exports, or well-organized data lakes.

Full traceability
Every data transformation, classification decision, and mapping choice is tracked in the audit log. See exactly how raw data became clean, categorized emissions data.

Stay in control
Evie does the heavy lifting but never makes changes without your approval. Review, adjust, or undo any action before it's final.

FAQs

How many emissions factors are in the database?

Over 200,000 factors from 23 sources including Ecoinvent, WFLDB, HBEFA, and more, subject to licenses. Curated specifically for food & beverage.

How often are factors updated?

Quarterly. We handle updates automatically so you don't have to track versions or reconcile sources.

Can I upload my own emissions factors?

Yes. Add factors from commissioned LCAs and primary supplier data. Organise by category, manage versions, and share across your team.

Is my proprietary data kept private?

Completely. Share calculations without exposing the custom factors behind them. The platform is ISO 27001 and SOC 2 certified.

What if different databases use different names for the same thing?

We've built proprietary AI that surfaces related factors together, so "truck emissions," "HGV," and "freight transport" all appear in the same search. You compare and pick the best match.

How do I know which factor to choose?

Every factor shows quality scores, geographic coverage, and when the data is from. AI also suggests the best match based on your geography, industry, and activity type, but you make the final call.

Do you only cover carbon?

No. Access factors for water, waste, land use, and other environmental impacts alongside carbon.

Can I use this for product carbon footprints?

Yes. Granular factors matched to production method, region, and ingredient help you calculate accurate PCFs.
