From raw data to a complete report

ESGorithm guides you through every stage of ESG reporting — from data collection to a compliant, auditable PDF that stakeholders and regulators can rely on.

01

Set up your organisation

Create your account, enter your company profile (industry, country, employee count), select your reporting frameworks (GRI, CSRD), and define your reporting period. Takes about five minutes.

  • Choose GRI, CSRD, or both
  • Set the reporting year and period type (annual, quarterly)
  • Invite team members with appropriate roles
02

Enter your ESG data

Use the guided data entry forms for Environmental, Social, and Governance metrics. Each metric shows the relevant framework disclosure code and accepts measured or estimated values.

  • 48+ metrics across Environmental, Social, and Governance
  • Mark data quality: Measured, Calculated, or Estimated
  • Import bulk data from CSV
  • Attach source documents as evidence
03

Review your compliance coverage

The Compliance Tracker maps your entered data to specific GRI and CSRD/ESRS disclosure requirements. You can see exactly which disclosures are complete, estimated, or still missing.

  • GRI standard-by-standard coverage view (GRI 302, 305, 401, etc.)
  • CSRD/ESRS disclosure mapping (E1, S1, G1, etc.)
  • Green = measured data · Amber = estimated · Red = missing
04

Run AI gap analysis

The AI assistant analyses your data against framework requirements, identifies gaps, and suggests priority actions. You can also ask free-form questions about your ESG performance.

  • Identifies the most impactful missing metrics
  • Explains why each metric matters for your frameworks
  • Answers questions about ESG standards and methodology
05

Compare against sector benchmarks

See how your key metrics compare to sector averages. The benchmarking tool gives each metric a performance grade (A–F) and highlights where you're ahead or behind peers.

  • Sector-average benchmarks for energy, emissions, waste, and more
  • A–F performance grades per metric
  • Quick-win suggestions: which metrics are closest to the next grade
06

Generate your report

Generate a complete, professional PDF report in one click. The report includes an executive summary, narrative sections written by AI, full metric tables, and a GRI or CSRD content index.

  • Management statement, executive summary, and strategic outlook
  • Environmental, Social, and Governance data sections
  • Goals & targets progress table
  • UN SDG alignment mapping
  • GRI Content Index or ESRS Disclosure Index

Built-in tools that go further

Once you have more than one reporting period, ESGorithm shows year-over-year trends for every metric. The report includes a historical trend table automatically.

Audit readiness score

The Audit Readiness tool evaluates whether your data, documentation, and processes are ready for external review. It checks data quality ratios, evidence coverage, and more.

Team collaboration
