What is sustainability reporting software?
Sustainability reporting software turns a company's measured environmental data into the disclosures a regulator, a financing partner, or a customer asks for. Spirefly is sustainability reporting software built on your own footprint: the quantitative fields of each framework's disclosure schema fill from your data, and the qualitative sections are drafted from how those figures were actually calculated. The full methodology and audit trail stay behind every number, so what you submit can be defended line by line.
Is Spirefly ESG reporting software?
Spirefly covers the environmental part of ESG. That means the ESRS environmental topics under CSRD (E1 climate, E2 pollution, E3 water, E4 biodiversity, E5 resource use) and the equivalent VSME sections, plus SBTi, SBTN, and EUDR. The social and governance topics are outside what Spirefly measures. Where another team or tool owns those chapters, Spirefly hands over structured, documented environmental inputs they can drop straight in.
Does Spirefly support CSRD and VSME reporting?
Yes, for the environmental topics. Spirefly maps your footprint to the CSRD and VSME disclosure schema, prefills the quantitative fields for ESRS E1 through E5 and the equivalent VSME sections, and drafts the methodology descriptions from your actual calculation logic. Spirefly is the measurement and drafting layer aligned to those standards, so your team, your auditor, and your assurance provider still make the final call on what is filed.
We have a consultant writing our CSRD report. What changes?
With Spirefly, your consultant starts from structured footprint data with full methodology documentation and a first draft of each disclosure section. Their hours go to interpretation, stakeholder communication, and the sections that genuinely need expert judgement, which is what you are paying them for. The data compilation and the methodology write-ups are already done when they arrive.
Finance owns our CSRD process. How does the handoff work?
Spirefly produces the sustainability content and finance receives it as structured, documented input: footprint figures carrying their scope and methodology documentation, prefilled disclosure tables, and qualitative drafts. The assurance package is produced in Spirefly too, so it is handed over together with the disclosure and finance can trace any figure back to its source without asking you to explain a spreadsheet.
How do we know the AI's methodology description is accurate?
The draft is generated from your actual calculation: the emission factors used, the scope categories applied, and the estimate flags on rows where primary data was unavailable. It describes what your assessment did. You review it before it goes anywhere, and where your company has a specific boundary decision or allocation method to explain, you add it. Every AI-proposed block in Spirefly is yours to accept, modify, or rewrite.
Can our auditor see the calculation behind every figure?
Yes. Every figure in a Spirefly disclosure traces to the footprint calculation behind it: the activity data, the emission factor and its database, and the scope classification. The provenance log records every human action with the reviewer and the time. Assurance providers can work in the platform directly, so the chain from a disclosure figure back to the raw input stays navigable at every step.
CSRD does not apply to us for another year. Is it worth starting now?
Yes, because your first CSRD report needs a comparative baseline, and that measurement has to exist before the report is written. Building the baseline in Spirefly a year early also means your methodology is tested and validated while the stakes are low, so the first mandatory cycle runs on a process your team has already used once.
We are in scope for EUDR. What does Spirefly cover?
Spirefly's EUDR support is partial today and covers supply chain data mapping plus country of origin documentation for commodities in scope. Where full geolocation is available for your tier-1 suppliers, Spirefly produces the required documentation. Where it is not, Spirefly structures the risk assessment approach and flags which supplier relationships need closer traceability work before you can file.
