About Seedling

Your partner in climate action.

Compliance-ready carbon reporting, purpose-built for SMEs.

Our mission is to give SMEs the tools and expertise they need to measure, reduce and report their carbon emissions - quickly, easily and credibly.

If you're applying for a public sector tender, going for B Corp, or responding to client requests for Net Zero targets, we make the process simple and compliant.

Whether you're in operations, finance, procurement, SHEQ, or sustainability – you don't need to be a carbon expert. Our platform guides you through it, with support from a real human when you need it.

This isn’t just a tick-box tool. Seedling combines expert support with powerful software to help you build a credible, actionable plan to decarbonise – and meet the expectations of clients, auditors, and certification bodies.

What we do

Seedling is an all-in-one carbon accounting and Net Zero planning platform for SMEs.

We help you:

  • Measure your emissions accurately, using activity data – not just spend – in line with the GHG Protocol.
  • Create compliant reports for SECR, B Corp, EcoVadis, and PPN 06/21 (UK tender requirements).
  • Set SBTi-aligned Net Zero targets with just a few clicks.
  • Build a reduction plan using our impact modelling tool – tailored to your footprint and sector.
  • Offset carbon through high-integrity, traceable projects.
  • Communicate your progress with auto-generated reports and a public climate impact page.

From sign-up to compliant report – in under 4 weeks on average.
