Practical AI tools for sustainability professionals
These tools don't replace sustainability expertise — they require it. The judgment call — that's still yours. What changes is the scale at which you can apply it. One practitioner, dozens of suppliers assessed, benchmarked, and prioritised. That's the bet.
"The rubric is the expertise. The AI is the execution."

At the time of the AI revolution, there is a risk on over reliance in automation. Years of expertise in change management cannot be easily replaced. AI can help us to focus more on high value tasks and projects.
Performance management workflows, regulatory compliance, benchmarks and best-practices — built from deep expertise and professional judgment, not prompt engineering.
Documents are read, evidence is located, scores are assigned consistently across dozens of reports in minutes, not weeks.
The practitioner validates outputs, catches edge cases, and interprets findings in context. The AI flags; the human decides.
Results feed into supplier conversations, board presentations, and disclosure narratives — with a clear audit trail of how conclusions were reached.
The Climate Clerk is a side project from a sustainability professional with +15 years of experience. Every tool here started as a real workflow problem — a supplier assessment that took too long, a benchmarking exercise that required weeks of analyst time, a risk screening that never got done because there weren't enough hours.
These aren't proofs of concept. They're working tools, shared openly because the field advances faster when practitioners share what's actually working — not just what's theoretically possible.
