Unique Data Value Proposition

Tracenable's climate commitment data sets the market benchmark for precision, standardization, reliability, and granularity. Learn why our data stands apart:
Uncompromised Standardization
Our team of environmental engineers meticulously maps climate commitment data according to standardized categories, distinguishing between three distinct levels of pledges. This guarantees uniformity and comparability across our dataset, bridging the gap created by the varied terminology and semantics companies use to describe their climate commitments.
Unbiased Data Integrity
Our approach is grounded in delivering climate commitment data exactly as claimed by companies, without making inferences or estimates for undisclosed data. This strict adherence to factual reporting ensures the integrity of the data you receive, providing an unaltered and accurate view of corporate climate commitments.
End-to-End Data Traceability
Every climate commitment is traceable to its original source with exact page references and documentation of calculation methodologies. This transparency enables confident verification of corporate climate commitments and progress claims.
Full-Scope Boundary Verification
We tag climate commitments that do not cover a company's entire organizational or operational boundaries with an 'Incomplete Boundaries' attribute. This attribute enhances transparency and ensures the comparability of our data by keeping you informed of any potential limitations.
