Find answers to your questions right here.
Which product do I need?
Start with the one you are being asked for. A sustainability report for your bank or customer is Voluntary Sustainability Reporting, and if your company falls under the CSRD, it is CSRD reporting. A carbon footprint is Carbon accounting, and a reduction target with the plan to reach it is Climate strategy, which builds on your footprint. All four share one set of numbers, so adding another later never means entering anything twice.
Do I need to be a sustainability expert?
No. Sprout, the AI agent built into every product, does the work an expert would: it reads your bills and documents, fills in the figures, drafts your report and answers customer questionnaires from your approved figures. You check what it did, and every question is explained in plain language.
Will customers, banks and auditors accept the results?
Yes. Each product follows the standard they ask for: the EFRAG VSME standard for your report, the ESRS for your CSRD statement, the GHG Protocol for your footprint and the SBTi criteria for your targets. Every figure is traced to its source document and emission factor, and every change is logged.
Will the AI make up numbers?
No. Sprout takes figures only from your own documents and records, and shows the page each one came from. Figures it reads wait for you to apply them, and any change it saves can be undone. Approving or publishing a report, sending requests and imports always wait for your yes.
How long does it take?
Days, not months. Upload the invoices, meter readings and fuel cards you already have, or connect Moneybird, Odoo, Nmbrs, Google Drive, OneDrive or SharePoint, and Sprout reads them for you. You skip everything that does not apply, and your climate plan builds on the footprint you just calculated.
What does it cost, and are there extra fees?
Voluntary Sustainability Reporting is €995 a year, CSRD reporting €4,995 and Carbon accounting €1,495. Climate strategy adds €995 on top of Carbon accounting. A reporting module with Carbon accounting and Climate strategy is €490 less: Voluntary Sustainability Reporting Complete is €2,995 and CSRD Complete €6,995. Prices exclude VAT, with unlimited users, no per-seat pricing, no setup fee and no implementation project.
