Apiday is used by SMEs, private investment firms (VC, PE, family offices), and large enterprises across all industries. We have products specialised for each of these 3 categories and your unique ESG objectives.

Sustainability teams, investor relations, legal/compliance and financial/operations team all use Apiday, you do not need to be an ESG expert to begin your ESG journey.

Pre-contractual, website and ongoing reporting (PAI statements) are all produced by Apiday.

Apiday’s CSRD module is perfectly suited for companies from 250 employees and up. Our Ecosystem manager allows you to create an unlimited number of countries offices, business units, internal departments and subsidiaries to match your company’s internal structure

The tool is perfect for companies just getting started and those doing it for a second or third time. We offer custom emission assessments for larger corporates (500+ FTEs) - talk to our team to find out how it works.

Apiday has in-house ESG expertise, including former Big Four non-financial reporting auditors and CSRD experts. Our support is available on demand and we can offer different support packages to those who are just getting started and for those who are already very familiar with CSRD.

We take data security and privacy extremely seriously. Fully GDPR compliant, all data is encrypted and stored within the EU with multiple safeguards in place to ensure world-class data privacy and security. We are happy to provide more detail on our data security infrastructure and practices, please reach out.

We customise our offering to your exact needs, use cases, and regulatory requirements. Our platform fee is an annual subscription, with several additional plan options and one-time advisory for specific engagements that allow you to build the solution that meets your needs and budget. Please reach out to our team for a bespoke quote and options for a potential pilot.

ESG is complex. We have built a powerful platform to guide you on your journey but we embed ESG, specialist support throughout the process. Our ESG experts hail from leading sustainability consultancies, ESG rating agencies, and multi-national sustainability teams. You will have on-demand ESG experts ready to support you and in addition, we will have direct project planning sessions to assist you throughout your entire ESG journey.

The EU Taxonomy is a robust framework that sets clear criteria for determining whether an economic activity is environmentally sustainable. It provides a common language for identifying and labeling investments and projects that contribute to key environmental objectives, such as climate change mitigation and adaptation, sustainable use of water and marine resources, transition to a circular economy, pollution prevention, and biodiversity conservation.

Apiday has created the most advanced ESG data model designed to date. We have mapped all major ESG frameworks and questionnaires to over 3,000 ESG data points, which underpins our automation tools. We take the guesswork away from you and it means you can report to any framework you want to build out an ESG reporting and data management roadmap that is unique to your needs.

We support all major EU regulations like NFRD, CSRD and SFDR compliance, along with other ESG certifications, frameworks and labels like B Corp, EcoVadis, SASB/ISSB, and CDP. Our ESG data model gives us enormous flexibility and scalability and we regularly map custom requests. Please reach out to discuss your needs. Via our partner network we can ensure EU Taxonomy alignment

You largely determine the pace, not Apiday. Depending on the complexity of your fund structure, we typically see first time fund setup taking 4-8 weeks and PAI reporting 3-4 weeks (including collecting data from portfolio companies). If this is a priority project for your firm, the Apiday tool will empower you to move much faster.

You determine the pace. Subject to data availability - you can move very quickly. We estimate 2-3 months to be a reasonable time estimate end-to-end given you likely will have other items on your to-do list

Our goal at Apiday is to facilitate interoperability - not control your data on our platform. In addition to raw export, we can integrate with most software packages on both the data input and output side, and in many cases build unique integrations and data extraction algorithms for our clients to deliver unparalleled ESG data automation. Please chat to us to find out how we can help you integrate your data platforms across your company.

You are in control. Assuming the data sources are already at your fingertips, it can be done in a matter of hours. We suggest budgeting for 2-3 weeks for a more leisurely pace.

Apiday is an ESG data management and GHG assessment platform that combines a universal ESG Data Model with powerful automation tools and real human ESG expertise. That means no manual data entry, answering repeat ESG data requests automatically no matter what format they come in, and systemically tracking ESG data across your ecosystem (no more excel).

We don’t just believe in sound ESG data management and compliance, but genuine sustainability improvement and we give you the tools to track, measure, and improve on all ESG dimensions.

Many auditors are already familiar with the Apiday platform. Apiday is auditable by design, with each datapoint linked to the underlying source. Invite auditors to a view only permission level to access your reporting. We will provide your auditors with a CSRD methodological note to get them up to speed.

No! Apiday delivers an end to end SFDR solution - from fund setup to ongoing reporting & data collection, Apiday will be all you need for SFDR compliance.
