Certified Carbon is a spend-based carbon management tool designed to help UK-based businesses measure and offset their environmental impact. By connecting to financial data, the platform calculates carbon footprints and generates reduction roadmaps aligned with SBTi standards.

The software supports SMEs, mid-market companies, and Multi-Academy Trusts that need to meet statutory reporting requirements or establish a sustainability framework. It supports the creation of SECR reports and provides a registry for companies to publish their carbon actions.

Buyers should note that the tool relies on financial data for its calculations and requires a Xero account or CSV uploads for automated measurement features. Those seeking full certification should confirm the difference between the reporting and accreditation plans.
