Core Features

  • Carbon Footprint Calculation & Baseline: Our Carbon helps organisations establish a detailed baseline of their greenhouse gas emissions by calculating emissions for Scope 1, Scope 2, and (in advanced tiers) Scope 3 categories. The platform provides carbon audits tailored to business activities and guides users through data collection and emissions quantification.

  • Expert Coaching & Education: A key feature is the inclusion of remote coaching sessions that help businesses understand their emissions, data requirements, and reduction opportunities. These sessions are designed to demystify carbon accounting and support decisions about sustainability investments.

  • Reduction Planning & Strategy: Our Carbon not only measures emissions but also helps clients identify reduction opportunities, develop decarbonisation roadmaps, and recommend solutions such as energy efficiency improvements, fleet electrification, or supplier engagement.

  • Offset & Solutions Advisory: At higher pricing tiers, the platform includes guidance on residual emissions offsets and access to vetted offset projects focused on eco-restoration and carbon removal.

  • Scope 3 Emissions Support: Advanced offerings include detailed Scope 3 analysis, with identification of hotspots and blind spots along supply chains and guidance on reducing indirect emissions.

  • Free Carbon Calculator: Our Carbon offers a free carbon footprint calculator designed to help organisations begin their sustainability journey by estimating emissions from daily business activities and converting them into a high-level emissions snapshot.

  • Sharing & Reporting Support: The service includes the ability to produce shareable carbon profiles and reports that help organisations communicate sustainability performance to stakeholders, clients, and partners.

Plans & Pricing

Our Carbon offers tiered pricing tailored to SME needs:

  • Starter: Includes carbon coaching, Scope 1 & Scope 2 calculations, and a shareable dashboard profile.

  • Advanced: Adds full Scope 3 emissions calculations, hotspot identification, and deeper insights.

  • Elite: Offers comprehensive carbon management, including reduction planning, government documentation support, premium offset partnerships, ISO-aligned PDF reports, and ongoing support.

Pricing is consultative and requires a demo request; published examples start at an entry-level fee (e.g., £1,500).

Integrations

Our Carbon primarily operates via guided data collection from clients, involving spreadsheets, business activity data, and coach-facilitated inputs; it does not publicly document native integrations with accounting systems or ERP platforms.

Certifications & Awards

There are no formal ISO or enterprise software certifications publicly listed for Our Carbon at this time. The methodology references ISO 14064-1 and GHG Protocol alignment for emissions calculations.

Expert Voices & Reviews

Independent industry reviews of the platform itself are limited due to its niche SME focus. Vendor narratives and client success stories highlight the importance of expert guidance and practical coaching in reducing barriers to sustainability for small organisations.

Customers & Case Studies

Our Carbon works with SMEs and social enterprises across sectors. While formal case studies are not extensively published, client content highlights journeys where detailed Scope 3 emissions analysis led to meaningful strategy development and performance communication.

Closing Insights

From a Net Zero Compare perspective, Our Carbon represents a hybrid advisory + carbon accounting offering, well-suited for SMEs that lack in-house sustainability expertise. Its coaching and support model distinguishes it from purely software-driven tools, enabling organisations to move from initial emission measurement to strategic reduction planning. However, because the platform relies heavily on expert interaction and guided processes rather than standalone enterprise software automation, it is less well-suited for organisations seeking fully automated analytics, integrations, or compliance-ready reporting engines.
