Compliance Tools · Materiality Assessment
The ESG issues that matter to your company, identified with data
SASB-based issue recommendations, automated stakeholder surveys, and an auto-generated priority matrix. The entire materiality assessment runs on one platform.
Solution intro
Materiality Assessment identifies the ESG issues that matter to your company and stakeholders, grounded in data.
Start from industry-specific issue recommendations, automate survey distribution and collection, and visualize responses as a priority matrix. With the methodology documented in data, a months-long consulting project becomes an in-house capability.

Common challenges in materiality work
“Too many standards, unclear priorities”
Material issues differ by industry, and there is no starting point built for yours.
“Stakeholder input takes too long”
Manual survey rounds take weeks, and response rates rarely clear 20%.
“Consulting quotes run to tens of thousands of dollars”
An assessment that repeats every year is expensive to outsource every time.
“Double materiality needs a method we don't have”
CSRD requires parallel financial and impact assessment, and there is no in-house framework for it.
Key features
From issue selection to matrix
Presented in the order an assessment actually runs.
Start from industry-specific candidates
Select your industry and material issue candidates load automatically, built on SASB's 77-sector classification. Issue selection stops being the bottleneck.
Distribution to collection, automated
Role-specific surveys go to investors, customers, employees, suppliers, communities, and regulators. Reminders and completion tracking run automatically. Platform-based surveys lift response rates 3–5x over manual rounds.
Double materiality, the way CSRD requires
Assess financial materiality and impact materiality in parallel. Results align with CSRD and GRI disclosure requirements, produced by your own team.
Results that double as reporting material
Responses visualize automatically on a business-impact by stakeholder-importance matrix. Issue rankings and group-level scores export with a PDF report, ready for management and disclosure.
