FAQ

Can I import my data from Sweep?

Not automatically. Certigence has no import connector for Sweep; carbon figures and materiality outcomes are entered in Certigence, usually from your latest export.

Is Certigence a good fit for my company?

Certigence fits European, especially Nordic, small and mid-sized companies answering ESG requests or preparing CSRD/VSME reporting without a sustainability team. It is not a fit if: You need iXBRL/ESEF tagging from the reporting tool itself. Certigence exports PDF and CSV; your filing agent does the tagging. Your main job is collecting Scope 3 primary data from thousands of suppliers. You report under US SEC, TCFD or PCAF rather than CSRD/ESRS or VSME. You need assurance. Certigence prepares the evidence trail for your auditor but does not issue assurance. You need to push data in programmatically. The Data API is read-only and starts on Professional.

What does Certigence cost?

Searching ratings and claiming your profile is free. Starter (€490/month) and Professional (€990/month) are self-serve with monthly or annual billing; annual billing costs ten months' price. Enterprise is quoted. Current prices are on the pricing page.
