Our tip:

Stay on top of entries across the year and align data input to when invoices arrive or you close your accounts, build carbon into processes that already exist.
Keep track of data sources, who owns it, and the assumptions behind each number, so your footprint stays accurate, repeatable and easy to explain year on year.

Intuitive by design

Each line autosaves as you go, so nothing is ever lost.
