About
Manifest Climate is an AI-powered assessment platform built for teams in audit & assurance, consulting, corporate sustainability, and sustainable investing who need rigorous, defensible findings at scale. The platform ingests any corporate documents, standardizes them for analysis, and applies user-defined or pre-built criteria to run structured assessments across hundreds of entities simultaneously — delivering results in under five hours with zero developer setup required. Every finding is backed by verbatim, page-level source citations, enabling full transparency and traceability for internal and external scrutiny. Users can lock in custom methodologies to ensure consistent, repeatable analysis across engagements, and results are surfaced through dashboards, exports, APIs, or connected agents. Manifest Climate supports a wide range of use cases including benchmarking, compliance (e.g., CSRD), due diligence, gap analysis, portfolio monitoring, supplier assessment, and research. The platform is trusted by advisory firms, asset managers, and non-profit organizations, enabling teams to deliver more rigorous work — such as 96% less manual analysis for portfolio monitoring or saving two weeks per consulting engagement — without adding headcount. Enterprise-grade security features include SOC 2 compliance, isolated environments, and zero data retention options.
