Alectro is a sustainability SaaS platform that tackles the critical challenge of corporate carbon accountability by empowering entire organizations to participate in climate action. It primarily serves service-based businesses and other companies that may lack the resources for complex environmental reporting. The platform's key insight is that accurate carbon measurement is the foundation for credible reduction, but lasting impact requires engaging employees and other stakeholders as active "climate champions" rather than treating sustainability as a top-down mandate. By providing tools that connect individual actions to corporate goals, Alectro helps businesses move from simply reporting carbon values to implementing a dynamic, collaborative, and cost-effective culture of sustainability that influences their entire supply chain.

Core Features

Alectro provides a SaaS platform, known as The Virtual Sustainability Officer®, which is an all-in-one net zero solution and climate technology platform. Its primary purpose is to help businesses measure, monitor, report, and reduce their carbon emissions and manage their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) strategies. The platform enables organisations to achieve their net zero carbon objectives with efficiency and precision. Some of its main capabilities are:

  • Full GHG Protocol coverage: Tracks Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, giving businesses a complete and transparent view of their carbon footprint.

  • Seamless data integration: Connects directly with accounting and procurement systems to collect emissions data automatically.

  • Activity-based accuracy: Calculates emissions using real operational data (e.g., kilometres travelled, kWh used, and units purchased) rather than spend-based estimates for reliable, audit-ready results.

  • Built-in compliance support: Generates reports aligned with SECR, ESOS, and PPN 006, helping businesses stay ahead of regulations with confidence.

  • Scalable by design: Whether it’s a 10-person startup or a large corporation, Alectro grows and adapts as the data expands.

  • Engaging, transparent reporting: Creates shareable dashboards and sustainability pages that communicate progress to clients, partners, and employees.

  • Engagement tools and Climate Clarity Badges: Offers a public impact page, employee engagement features and Climate Clarity Badges that summarise progress across categories such as Measure, Reduce and Supply Chain, designed to communicate climate action and reduce greenwashing risk.

  • Embedded advisory and communications support: Includes onboarding, continuous data-upload support, expert data review, ongoing decarbonisation guidance and optional climate talks, and marketing support.

Closing Insights

Alectro emerged in 2019 when co-founders Tim Geller and Bertie Ivory-Peters set out to give companies practical tools for measuring emissions and preparing for the commercial impacts of climate change. The platform now acts as a virtual sustainability officer for SMEs and service-led organisations that need full-scope data and clear pathways without building large internal teams.

Clients such as Atom Bank, Big Group and Moneybox illustrate how Alectro adapts across financial services, marketing and fintech. Logos and case studies show it being used to streamline data collection, support tender responses and engage staff around emissions reductions, often combining dashboards, Climate Clarity Badges and expert sessions to connect carbon data with procurement, investors and employees.

Looking ahead, Alectro is expanding features such as AI-supported supply-chain monitoring and Climate Clarity scoring and has signalled future ESG modules and custom emission factor databases. Combined with a single-plan, quote-based licence that includes integrations to systems like Xero, Sage and SAP, the offer is positioned for organisations seeking a mix of automation and advisory support.
