New · Versioned factor library, hashed period close

The carbon ledger and the report
that writes itself.

cobank.ai parses every invoice line, calculates kgCO₂e against a versioned factor library, and seals each closed period into a tamper-evident hash chain. Period close drops from two weeks of spreadsheets to an afternoon.

How it works

Three layers, working line by line.

cobank.ai ingests every invoice, classifies every line against a versioned factor library, and seals each closed period into a hash chain. What used to take two weeks of spreadsheet work takes an afternoon.

Classify

Each line gets a factor match, a confidence score, and a reasoning trace from BAFU, DEFRA, or ecoinvent. Anything below your threshold lands in your reviewer’s queue — never silently approved.

Seal

Each line’s row hash includes the line before it. At period close, a single root hash commits the period — verifiable byte-for-byte by your auditor in seconds.

0factor versions

Every factor in cobank’s library is versioned with effective dates and a source citation. Re-run a prior period; the math is reproducible.

“No guessing. Every kilogram of CO₂e we report carries its factor’s hash. If your auditor wants to verify, they verify — not negotiate.”

Platform

Built for the people who sign the report.

Every kilogram of CO₂e traces to a line item, a factor, and a hash. Every period close is sealed. Every auditor gets a workbench, not a CSV export.

Line-item carbon ledger
Every invoice gets parsed line-by-line. Every line carries a factor, a unit conversion, and a kgCO₂e total — with the math visible.
Versioned factor library
1'397 factors from BAFU, DEFRA, ecoinvent, IEA, and EPA. Every line records which factor version it used. Boundary changes are traceable across years.
Tamper-evident chain
SHA-256 row hashes form an append-only chain. Any retroactive edit invalidates every subsequent hash. Your auditor verifies in seconds.
Auditor workbench
Invite your firm directly. They get a separate audit-blue surface with sampling, workpapers, and ISSA 5000 / ISAE 3410 sign-off — never leaving the system.
Period sealing
Once a period closes, every line is frozen. Adjustments flow into the next period as auditable amendments — never silent edits to historical data.
Reports your auditor recognises
VSME, GHG Protocol Corporate Standard, and CSRD-ready exports. Each one signed against the period’s snapshot hash.
