Unravel Carbon Expands Global ESG Partner Network Across U.S., EU, Australia, and Southeast Asia

SAN FRANCISCO – AUGUST 20, 2025Unravel Carbon, the world’s first ESG reporting solution to leverage AI agents for sustainability, announced partnerships with four consultancies in the U.S., European Union, Australia, and Southeast Asia. The agreements expand Unravel Carbon’s global partner ecosystem and showcase the transformative potential of AI agents in sustainability advisory and compliance services.

The partnerships include:

  • GSI Environmental (U.S.) – Adopting Unravel Carbon’s platform to autonomously convert raw customer data into GHG emissions calculations in real time. The AI tool recognizes data types from raw files, categorizes them into the appropriate emissions scope, and formats them for calculation, reducing manual processing time by 35%.
  • Ikano Insight (UK/EU) – Ikano Insight, a data science and sustainability analytics company, part of the Ikano Group and owned by the founders of IKEA, leverages Unravel Carbon’s AI agents and software to deliver the ESG Performance Optimiser 
  • CBRE’s Paia (Southeast Asia) – Integration of Unravel Carbon’s Gap Analyzer Agent to rapidly assess client ESG data against leading disclosure frameworks, identifying compliance gaps and accelerating readiness for emerging regulations. The Gap Analyzer Agent takes less than two minutes versus six weeks of manual analysis.
  • Climate & Decisions (Australia) – Development of ASRS in a Box, a purpose-built solution that fast-tracks ASX-listed companies toward climate disclosure readiness, using generative AI and expert guidance. The solution makes it simple for organizations to comply with the Australian Sustainability Reporting Standards (ASRS) which are now in effect.

“After three years advancing GenAI for climate, we are now leading the next wave: AI agents for sustainability,” said Grace Sai, CEO of Unravel Carbon. “These intelligent, autonomous systems work alongside human experts to collect, analyze, and interpret sustainability data at unprecedented speed and scale. Our new partnerships demonstrate how the world’s top consultancies can leverage AI agents to deliver faster, more accurate, and more actionable ESG insights to their clients.”

Rachel Hutcheson, CEO of Ikano Insight, said: "This partnership is about uniting the best of both worlds: Ikano Insight’s strength in ESG and sustainability analytics and Unravel Carbon’s industry-leading carbon intelligence software and AI agents. Together, we offer businesses a powerful, integrated path to faster ESG maturity, measurable impact, and readiness for tomorrow’s regulatory environment."

Albert Lu, Senior Sustainability Engineer at GSI Environmental, added: “Partnering with Unravel Carbon allows us to dramatically streamline the data processing stage of our work. This not only saves our consultants significant time, it also ensures higher accuracy and consistency across projects — which is critical as ESG regulations evolve.”

Unravel Carbon’s AI agents integrate into consulting workflows to turn fragmented ESG data into audit-ready outputs: 

  • The Data Collection Agent gathers inputs from data owners and suppliers with guided templates and auto-reminders. 
  • The Data Review Agent acts as a QA/QC auditor, detecting anomalies and fixing common errors. 
  • The Data Transformation Agent evaluates datasets for relevance, structures the fields required for emissions calculations, and highlights any gaps for completion. The Gap Analyzer and Disclosures Agents identify gaps against ASRS, ISSB, GRI, and B Corp, draft framework-aligned reports, and enable peer benchmarking on real company data.
  • The Product Carbon Footprint Agent converts bills of materials into defensible product carbon footprints, cutting manual work, improving accuracy, and supporting compliant reporting at scale.

Unravel Carbon continues to develop its global network of partnerships with professional services firms, enabling them to deploy cutting-edge AI agents that strengthen client relationships, reduce operational costs, and ensure readiness for the rapidly changing ESG landscape.
