# Gravity

> Gravity is an enterprise carbon accounting and energy management platform for complex operations: manufacturing, construction, private equity portfolios, logistics, and energy companies. It connects source data, defensible calculations, audit-ready reporting, and energy projects in one system.

Gravity helps sustainability teams meet disclosure obligations (CSRD, CDP, SBTi, SB 253, CBAM, GHG Protocol) without losing sight of operating value. Founded in San Francisco in 2022. CEO: Saleh ElHattab. SOC 2 Type II certified.

Every reported number traces back to a source document, a reviewer, and an approval state. Calculations are deterministic and inspectable. AI is used for workflow (gathering data, mapping sources, flagging anomalies), never for the math.

60% of Gravity customers switched from another carbon accounting provider, and zero have ever left Gravity for a competitor.

## Products

- [Carbon Management](https://www.gravityplatform.com/product/carbon): Scope 1, 2, and 3 accounting with evidence-linked reporting, organizational rollups, report locking with snapshot history, supplier engagement, and disclosure-ready exports for CSRD, CDP, SBTi, and SB 253.
- [Utility Bill Management](https://www.gravityplatform.com/product/utility-bill-management): AI bill-scan extraction, direct integrations with 9,000+ utilities and 12-month backfill, duplicate detection, anomaly and spend monitoring, MWh normalization across fuel types, and savings-to-project workflows.
- [Energy Management](https://www.gravityplatform.com/product/energy-management): Energy project discovery, ROI and payback modeling, MACC curves, incentive and financing matching, vetted vendor routing, and execution tracking tied to measured energy and emissions data.

## Platform Capabilities

- Data ingest: bring bills, supplier files, ERP exports, fleet data, meters, and site records into one source-linked work queue.
- Calculation engine: deterministic emissions math with inspectable factor matching, rule logic, overrides, and methodology audit trail.
- AI agents: gather data, map sources, and stage changes, then wait for human approval, with full cited audit trail.
- Dashboards and reporting: evidence-linked dashboards and disclosure exports for CSRD, CDP, SBTi, and SB 253.
