The carbon ledger you can trust, and sign
Every company tracks its money in a general ledger. Bardo does the same for your carbon. Instead of estimates and averages, we rebuild your footprint from financial reality, everything you payed for is accounted for.
The result is a single, auditable Carbon Footprint Inventory you can trace, trust, and use to act.
What the inventory is
A verified record of everything that emits in your upstream value chain: mapped, measured, and documented. Every line connects what was bought to the impact it caused. Each number links back to its transaction, activity, and emission factor.
Activities
Every purchase, shipment, and service as a real emission driver
Factors
The most specific LCA available for each activity, with source, year, and uncertainty
Scope Notes
Explicit choices for categories and time windows
Audit Trail
Change history and locked snapshots for filing periods
Provenance
Every record links to ERP, invoices, and supplier records with timestamps

Quality and human review
Automation handles volume, specialists handle edge cases. Items with low confidence enter queues for review. Approved fixes write back to the ledger. Decisions are stored as labels that train the models for the next run.

FAQ
Not spend based. Activity based with LCA per invoice line, enabled by reasoning AI. The result is source tight, comparable numbers you can use for decisions, not just reporting.
Do we need analysts to operate this
No. Bardo runs a managed service that produces the inventory. You review edge cases only when helpful.
Can we keep our reporting platform
Yes. Keep your workflows. Feed them with inventory data through exports custom reports.
How do auditors interact with the ledger?
They receive the assurance kit. From any reported number they can follow sampling links to activity and factor records.
What if a supplier LCA does not exist?
Bardo creates a documented LCA based on the best available inputs. It is marked for replacement when a better source appears.
How portable is the data?
Very. You receive exports whenever you want. Data contracts keep fields stable over time.
