Your emissions data is in 50 systems. Your audit deadline is in 90 days.

Circulyft pulls utility invoices, freight manifests, and supplier questionnaires into one calculation model — producing a line-item Scope 1-3 GHG inventory with a linked audit trail your statutory auditor can verify. No six-month consultancy, no gap-filled estimates.

Three steps to an audit-ready report

No spreadsheets. No six-month consultancy. No gap-filled estimates.

01
Connect

Connect your utility provider APIs, ERP systems, freight carrier feeds, and supplier portals. Circulyft normalises every input format automatically — no manual re-entry, no reformatting.

02
Calculate

The calculation engine applies IPCC, EPA, and GHG Protocol emission factors at the line-item level — Scope 1 combustion, Scope 2 market-based and location-based, and all 15 Scope 3 categories resolved in a single run.

03
Report

Receive CSRD/ESRS E1, GHG Protocol Corporate Standard, and GRI 305-aligned outputs as structured PDF and Excel. Every figure in the report links back to its source record in the embedded audit trail — the appendix your statutory auditor needs.

From every emission source to a single audit-ready number

Scope 1
Direct Emissions
Combustion, fleet, and process sources you control
  • Stationary combustion (boilers, furnaces)
  • Mobile combustion (company vehicles, forklifts)
  • Process emissions (industrial operations)
  • Fugitive emissions (refrigerant leaks)
8 emission categories covered
Scope 2
Purchased Energy
Electricity and heat you buy from the grid
  • Market-based method (RECs, supplier contracts)
  • Location-based method (grid average factors)
  • Purchased steam and heat
  • Automated from utility invoices
Both methods required — we handle both automatically
Scope 3
Value Chain
Upstream and downstream indirect emissions
  • Purchased goods and services
  • Freight and distribution (upstream + downstream)
  • Business travel and employee commuting
  • Supplier data via questionnaire
15 GHG Protocol categories covered

Connects to where your data already lives

Not a spreadsheet upload tool. Live integrations pull data from the systems your operations team already runs — no parallel data entry, no stale exports.

Regulatory Update

CSRD mandatory reporting starts now for large companies — mid-market phasing in through 2026.

The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) requires a complete GHG inventory — Scope 1, 2, and 3 — aligned to ESRS E1, with prior-year comparatives, intensity metrics, and a climate transition narrative. Large EU companies began reporting on FY 2024 data. The second wave, covering large companies with 250+ employees and €40M+ turnover, reports on FY 2025. US-headquartered manufacturers with EU revenue or customers already receiving CSRD-scoped questionnaires from their own suppliers. Circulyft produces the ESRS E1-aligned GHG table with a linked audit trail your statutory auditor can open and verify source by source.

From the sustainability teams and CFOs using it

"Before Circulyft, our Category 1 data collection ran six weeks — manually chasing 40 suppliers, normalising inconsistent spreadsheets, and still receiving audit findings on source documentation. The same process now runs in under a day, with every emission factor version cited in the appendix."
Sarah R.
Sustainability Manager, mid-market auto parts manufacturer
"Our limited assurance provider asked for source documentation on three Scope 2 line items. With our old process, that retrieval would have taken two days minimum. We pulled the Circulyft audit trail in under five minutes — EPA factor version, utility invoice reference, calculation date, all there. That's the first time I've had real confidence signing off our ESG disclosures."
Marcus T.
CFO, regional retail distribution company
