Where Certigence has the advantage

  • Built for CSRD from the ground up: Certigence's Double Materiality Wizard walks you through the full ESRS IRO process and auto-generates your CSRD Action Dashboard — no spreadsheet workarounds needed.
  • Evidence-first AI gap analysis: Our RAG-powered AI cites specific ESRS clauses when it identifies compliance gaps. You always know why a gap exists, not just that it does.
  • Nordic expertise built in: Certigence is designed for Nordic and EU regulatory contexts, with language support, local compliance nuances, and currency handling that Sweep does not offer.
  • Transparent pricing with a free tier: Start without a sales call. Certigence offers a free tier and published pricing, while Sweep requires enterprise contract negotiations.

Where Sweep has the advantage

We believe in honest comparisons. Here is where Sweep genuinely outperforms Certigence:

  • Best-in-class scope 3 supplier data collection: Sweep's supplier portal and integrations make it easier to gather accurate upstream and downstream emissions data at scale.
  • Strong third-party integrations: Sweep connects to ERP, accounting, and logistics systems, which can reduce manual data entry for large supply chains.

Which should you choose?

If your primary challenge is scope 3 supply chain data collection across a large, complex supplier network, Sweep is a strong choice. If you need to deliver a full CSRD disclosure — double materiality, ESRS gap analysis, PDF and CSV export, and action planning — Certigence covers the entire reporting lifecycle in one platform, without enterprise pricing.

Choose Certigence if you are preparing your first or second CSRD report and need end-to-end guidance. Choose Sweep if carbon supply chain data aggregation is your biggest bottleneck and CSRD reporting depth is a secondary concern.
