The Carbon Intelligence Platform for Enterprise Procurement

July 11, 2026 From CBAM Reporting to Carbon Intelligence

Like many founders, this project started with a simple observation.

When the EU introduced the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), the market quickly filled with software focused on one thing: generating reports.

The more we spoke with procurement teams, CFOs and sustainability professionals, the more we realised that reporting isn't the real problem.

The real challenge starts much earlier.

  • Which suppliers create the highest carbon exposure?

  • What happens if you change supplier?

  • How will future carbon prices affect procurement decisions?

  • What's the financial impact of a sourcing strategy before contracts are signed?

That's where the idea for InteliCarbon was born.

Rather than building another compliance tool, we're building a Carbon Intelligence Platform that combines supplier intelligence, AI-powered document processing, scenario modelling and financial impact analysis in a single enterprise platform.

Our goal isn't simply to help organisations report emissions.

It's to help them make better business decisions before reporting even begins.

Building differently

One of the most interesting parts of this journey has been how we're building the product itself.

We're using AI-assisted software engineering throughout the development process. Autonomous coding agents help us accelerate implementation, while we remain responsible for architecture, validation and product direction.

The result is faster iteration without compromising on enterprise quality.

We're looking for Early Pilot Organisations

We're now opening our Early Pilot Programme for a limited number of organisations.

Every pilot includes:

  • Complimentary onboarding

  • 24/7 expert support

  • No implementation costs

  • No obligation after the pilot

If your organisation works with CBAM, supplier emissions, procurement or sustainability, we'd love to hear your feedback.


I'm also curious to hear from the Indie Hackers community:

If you were building an enterprise SaaS platform in 2026, where would you use AI the most: product development, customer support, sales, or something else?

Looking forward to your thoughts.

    What stood out to me isn't the CBAM reporting itself—it's the scenario modeling.

    Most compliance software tells you what happened. The ability to ask "What happens if EUA prices rise?" or "What if we switch suppliers?" turns the platform from a reporting tool into a decision-support system. That's a much harder position for competitors to replicate because you're helping companies make decisions before costs hit, not just documenting them afterward.

    That feels like a stronger long-term narrative than compliance alone.

About

After speaking with procurement, finance and sustainability professionals, it became clear that reporting is only the final step. The real challenge is understanding supplier emissions, evaluating sourcing decisions.
