What you can benchmark on

Benchmark against direct, adjacent and aspirational peers

Contrast corporate performance with the broad sector, direct competitors or industry leaders, through rapid, iterative and trustworthy AI workflows. Identify where performance leads and lags and, more importantly, how to catch up or extend a lead. Custom assessments surface the innovations in adjacent industries worth adopting to reduce risk and cost.

Out of the box metrics, an indicator library of 500

Our Knowledge Base holds over 500 metrics for the most frequently disclosed corporate performance and sustainability topics, reached through our corporate performance taxonomy. Analyse core global metrics, or apply materiality and industry-specific lenses to identify diligence and engagement priorities.

Industry frameworks

View pre-extracted metrics for the world’s largest companies, or use the indicators module to extract metrics from proprietary sources you control, such as portfolio company disclosures and deal room documentation. Metrics are harmonised and aligned to frameworks such as ISSB, CSRD and TNFD automatically, with full company context and traceability back to source citations.

Deploy pre-developed assessments

Explore our library of pre-developed assessment criteria for every kind of corporate performance and sustainability topic. Whether it is human rights risk, cybersecurity, water performance or community relations, the platform holds dozens of out-of-the-box frameworks built by experts and covering many global standards.

Your own criteria and custom scorecards

If an existing assessment does not cover it, create your own with AI support: benchmarking criteria across qualitative performance, policies, targets, commitments, news, controversies and many other data types. Inputs can be aggregated for ranking through AI-powered scorecards.

A laser focus on what is material

Limit the analysis to the factors that matter, from a combination of top-down materiality frameworks and the bottom-up materiality knowledge in our Knowledge Base of 4m global financial and sustainability disclosures.
