Core Features
Compare Your Footprint combines emissions calculations, benchmarking, reporting, and collaborative data management. Key features include:
Scope 1–3 Carbon Accounting: Calculates greenhouse gas emissions from energy consumption, fuels, transport, purchased goods, waste, and other business activities using activity-based and expenditure-based data.
Sector Benchmarking: Compares organizational carbon footprints against a dataset representing more than 700 organizations across 12 industry sectors. Comparisons can be segmented by business size and revenue, helping users assess emissions performance relative to comparable organizations.
Data Collection and Integration: Supports manual entry, spreadsheet imports, and integrations with Xero and Sage accounting software. Invoice processing automation reduces repetitive data entry, while facilities can be added individually or in bulk for multi-site reporting.
Emissions Reduction Planning: Identifies emissions hotspots, establishes baselines, and tracks year-on-year performance. The platform supports science-based reduction targets, progress monitoring, and comparisons against historical emissions data.
Consultant and Team Collaboration: Provides multi-client management for sustainability consultants and departmental data collection workflows for organizations.
Closing Insights
Originally developed in 2017 through sustainability consulting work, Compare Your Footprint is now operated by CYF Impact Ltd, incorporated in December 2025. Its current direction reflects a stronger commercial focus on SMEs, sustainability consultants, and businesses facing growing carbon disclosure demands from customers, investors, and procurement processes. The platform serves organizations in the UK, US, and Australia.
Under its current commercial direction, CYF is expanding its consultant and white-label partner network, including subscription discounts and co-marketing support. Its strategy also emphasizes building a larger cross-sector benchmarking dataset as participation grows. This approach positions Compare Your Footprint as both a business carbon accounting solution and an infrastructure provider for sustainability consultancies and other service platforms.
