Cut ESG data collection time in half

Ingest complexity. Produce clarity.

ESG data collection can be painful and time-intensive. Watershed drastically reduces that time using AI and APIs to ingest any kind of data then clean and standardize it for calculations. So whether it’s a utility bill, water usage data, or a tangle of spreadsheets, it’ll come out clear and measurable.

• Cover all required ESG metrics and all 3 emissions scopes
• Accelerate collection with APIs and AI
• Get automated data cleaning, anomaly detection and standardization

Produce ESG measurements you can stand by—and act on.

Sustainability measurements are often based on broad assumptions and generalized data. Watershed takes a more rigorous approach, because you have to trust your data to act on it.

• 2.3 million built-in emissions factors covering 95% of the global GDP

• Expert methodologies that are third-party assured every year

• 150+ automated error checks built in

• Full data lineage so every number is traceable

• Transparent AI use with cited sources for greater explainability

Get a granular view of your business.

No two companies are the same, and you can’t make smart business decisions based on generic or proxy data. Watershed offers more granularity than any other platform, so you can get data that reflects your actual business.

• Customize your calculation methodology
• Configure your footprints for different business units or geographies
• Get activity-based scope 3.1 for the products and materials you buy
• Use AI to decompose your supply chain for a more detailed view into what’s driving emissions
