Carbon compliance infrastructure

Guessing used to be free.
It now has a price.

Climes is carbon compliance infrastructure for enterprises. We turn the data buried in your own systems into numbers an auditor will sign, for BRSR Core, CBAM, CSRD and SBTi.

The problem

You cannot fix what you cannot see.

Every company puts carbon into the air. Almost none of them know how much, or where it comes from. It hides in factories, in suppliers, in flights, and in the products they sell.

Scope 1 + 2 · what they can see   /   Scope 3 · suppliers, logistics, and the products themselves
70 to 90% of the real footprint
The white sliver is what most companies have measured, assured and signed off.

Every plan to fix it starts with a number nobody has.

What changed

For twenty years, no one checked. Now three rules do.

Corporate sustainability used to be self-reported, methodology-optional and auditor-free. That ended. Three rules arrived at once, and each installs a different kind of consequence.

BRSR Core · India

An auditor.

An outside assurer now has to sign a listed company's carbon numbers. They are allowed to refuse.

Assurance phasing to the top 1,000
CBAM · Europe

A tax.

Send steel, aluminium or cement into Europe and you pay for the carbon inside it. A bad number costs real money.

Definitive phase live now
CSRD & SBTi · Global

A contract.

European buyers must report their suppliers' emissions. If you sell to them, that means yours.

Table stakes for global supply

An auditor. A tax. A contract. Guessing now has a price.

Who gets checked

3 companies. The same missing number.

Different rules, different fears, one shared problem: somebody with real power is about to look closely at a number they cannot fully defend.

01

The Listed Company

The board asked for the number, and Scope 3 is blank. Scope 1 and 2 are clean. It is the follow-up question they fear.

BRSR & Scope 3 depth →
02

The Supplier & Exporter

A customer sent a questionnaire, or a border is now pricing your carbon. Nobody in the building owns this yet.

Export pressure →
03

The Chain Owner

Head office wants part-level carbon across every supplier, at every tier. You are the one doing the asking.

Supply-chain platform →

Different rules. Different fears. The same missing number.

What we do

A free scan. Then the system that does the work.

Two products, in order. One opens the conversation. The other is the business.

Carbon X-Ray · diagnostics.climes.io

See where you stand.

A free scan. We score a company out of 100 on how much of its carbon it can actually account for, and show where it sits against its industry. It takes minutes, and it produces your own number.

Carbon-OS · carbon-os.climes.io

The system of record.

The platform that does the real work. It takes messy data out of your own systems, flights, invoices, factories and parts, and turns it into a number an auditor will sign. Every figure carries its source and its method, so it can be defended line by line.

How it actually works

The hard part is not the carbon. It is the data.

It sits in four systems nobody built for carbon, owned by people who do not report to the sustainability team.

Raw data
Reconciled
Method attached
Auditor signs
A
Two different columns, both called "approved amount."
Which one is real? Nobody in finance can tell you today.
B
Hotel check-outs that do not match the nights booked.
So the stay emissions are wrong before you start.
C
Train journeys with no train number, so no route.
No route means no emission factor, so no number.
D
Bus records that cannot be used at all.
The data exists. It just cannot answer the question.

Nobody wants to do this part. It is the entire job.

06 / 09
Why measuring comes first

A guess never gets a budget.

01
Carbon is invisible. A company cannot see where it sits.
02
So it cannot tell what matters. Every emission looks the same size.
03
So it fixes the wrong things. It solves the visible tenth and misses the ninety.
04
So what is left is a guess. Not a real number. A guess.
05
And a guess never gets a budget. A proven number does.

Measuring is not the paperwork before the work. It is the work.

The line we never cross

We measure. Someone independent verifies. We are never on both sides.

Layer 2 · the good-to-have

Offsets come last.

Once you have measured and cut everything you can, Climes connects you to verifiable carbon projects for the residual. Registry-backed, Verra or Gold Standard, with public methodology and a clear paper trail from finance to retirement.

You can also act at the edge: neutralise an order at checkout, run a carbon-neutral event, or distribute climate rewards with Climes LITE. Useful, but never the headline.

This is the smaller half of what we do. The core is the data.

Where this goes

Move a trillion dollars
into climate projects.

The money to fix the climate already exists. It is stuck, because no company can prove what it owes. That is why we start with measuring.

When every company knows its real number, the money knows where to go.
