Climate Management & Accounting Platform (CMAP) provider Persefoni announced today the release of Persefoni Pro, a new free, tool aimed at enabling businesses to measure and disclose their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

Launched in 2020, Persefoni’s SaaS platform enables companies and institutional investors to measure, analyze, plan, forecast, and report on their carbon footprint.

The company said that the new free solution can help address the mandatory requirements for large companies to collect and disclose on their value chain, or Scope 3, emissions, required by a growing set of regulations around the world, including Canada’s CSSB, Europe’s CSRD, and California’s Climate Corporate Data Accountability Act.

Kentaro Kawamori, CEO and Co-founder of Persefoni, said:

“Carbon footprints are meant to be shared, and it should be easy and free. Whether you’re sharing your footprint internally or with external suppliers, investors, regulators, or the public, the ultimate benefit is using more accurate and complete data to drive better decision-making.”

According to Persefoni, the new tool provides a comprehensive enterprise-grade solution for creating accurate carbon footprints, functioning similarly to intuitive self-guided software such as TurboTax, enabling businesses to collect, identify, and disclose a comprehensive emissions footprint. The tool leads users through the process based on factors like their industry, location, and operational scale, and dynamically adapts, posing new inquiries built upon earlier responses.

Kawamori added:

“While Pro may represent the culmination of many years of development and achievements in AI, including proprietary, advanced GPT models, it’s only the first step in this process. Before the summer, we will release additional one-click regulatory reporting, advanced calculations, and more GPT features. Material network effects have been unlocked now that emissions data has become easier to gather, manage, and share.”
