Company profile

researched Aug 2026

LoneReport develops software for corporate ESG (environmental, social and governance) disclosure reporting. The platform combines regulatory monitoring, internal response management and report generation in a single system, using AI to map a company's ESG data to relevant global disclosure frameworks so the same information does not have to be re-entered for each filing. Named frameworks and programs supported on the product site include SASB, DJSI, CDP and the UN SDGs.

Product capabilities described by the company include connectors to existing enterprise data sources; stakeholder engagement features that map data-collection requests to a customer's org chart; regulatory monitoring that surfaces potentially material requirements by jurisdiction with assignment and approval workflow; audit trails covering each data point; internal control mirroring so legal and communications teams can approve material before publication; and dedicated support through a shared Slack channel. The company states its software cuts reporting time by up to 90%, saves more than 15 hours per week on disclosure reporting and reduces compliance costs by more than $45,000, and cites a customer testimonial from a director of sustainability at The RealReal.

Business model

Software-as-a-service sold to corporations, with a sales-led motion built around booked demos and meetings with the sales team, and an included white-glove support service delivered via a dedicated Slack channel.

Traction

The company reports more than 5,000 verified answers used in reports and 99.2% response accuracy, and states that it is used by Fortune 500 companies.
