Ecolytics

Ecolytics is a sustainability management software company serving B Corps and other purpose-driven businesses. The platform organizes work around three stages — Measure, Improve and Showcase — covering B Corp certification from baseline assessment through recertification. On the measurement side it tracks greenhouse gas emissions across Scopes 1, 2 and 3, resource use such as energy, water and waste, and social and governance metrics including employee demographics, volunteering hours, donations, policies and living wage coverage, with each figure carrying its source, date and verified-or-estimated status.

The Improve layer provides gap analysis against V2 B Corp requirements scoped to a company's size band and audit year, prioritized improvement recommendations, supplier engagement tools and peer benchmarking. The Showcase layer generates annual impact reports, public-facing impact pages, investor- and customer-ready exports, and disclosures formatted for standards such as CDP and EcoVadis. Ecolytics states that it is licensed by B Lab, so requirements shown in the product are drawn from the standard itself, and that it maps customer operations to all seven Impact Topics.

The company describes itself as a team of environmental and social impact specialists whose stated mission is to enable companies to know their impact and use that data to improve both their business and the planet. It publishes its own emissions, energy, waste and social metrics on a public impact page built with the same tooling sold to customers.

Founding story

Ecolytics was founded in 2020 with a stated mission of enabling every company to know its impact and use that data to improve its business and the planet. The company frames the problem as sustainability work remaining overwhelmingly manual and costly, and positions its product as reducing that time and cost so that impact work does not compete with running the business.

Business model

Ecolytics sells a subscription software platform to companies that need to measure and report environmental and social performance. Plans include onboarding, a 24/7 help center and knowledge base, and dedicated in-house customer success managers; prospective customers enter through a demo request flow rather than self-serve signup.

Recurring software revenue from platform plans, all of which bundle onboarding, help center access and customer success support.

Traction

The website states the platform is used by more than 100 B Corps and teams working toward certification. Third-party listings describe the company as pre-seed with roughly 1-10 employees (two as of February 2024). A customer testimonial from a founder and CEO cites the platform's role in B Corp certification and impact reporting.

Latest developments

In September 2025 Ecolytics announced Offset AI, described as a first-of-its-kind tool to track and offset the environmental footprint of artificial intelligence use, and published takeaways from a workshop on the new B Corp standards delivered at BLD Southeast. Current product messaging centers on the V2 B Corp standard, including mapping existing answers to the new requirements, ranking remaining gaps by size band and audit year, and maintaining audit-ready data across the five-year continuous improvement cycle. A partnerships offering is flagged as new on the site.
