Why do you need an ESG score?

Since 2024 the largest EU companies report on sustainability under the CSRD. From financial year 2027 the rule covers companies with more than 1,000 employees and more than โ‚ฌ450M in turnover, and they can ask their suppliers for ESG data.

Access to green finance

Some European banks already price credit lines with ESG criteria. A documented score shows where you stand and what you are improving.

๐Ÿ“‹

CSRD ripple effect

Even if your SME isn't subject to the CSRD, your largest customers may be. They can ask you for documented ESG data, within what the voluntary VSME standard covers. Having it ready makes those requests easy to answer.

๐Ÿ’ฐ

EU grants and funds

Next Generation EU, national green funds and Climate-KIC increasingly build ESG criteria into their assessment. Documenting your score helps you prepare applications.

Prioritised action plan

It's not just a number: the report identifies the 3โ€“5 quick wins that raise your score most with the least effort.

Frequently asked questions

Is my SME subject to the CSRD?

Almost certainly not. After the EU simplification (the "stop-the-clock" Directive (EU) 2025/794 and the Omnibus Directive (EU) 2026/470), from financial year 2027 the CSRD applies only to companies with more than 1,000 employees and more than โ‚ฌ450M in net turnover. SMEs, listed or not, are out of scope. They can report voluntarily with the VSME standard, and a large customer cannot require a supplier with up to 1,000 employees to provide more than that voluntary standard covers. Member States have until 19 March 2027 to transpose these rules, so check your national law before relying on them.

Is the assessment valid for mandatory CSRD reporting?

The assessment is a self-assessment aligned with the VSME basic module (EFRAG). Mandatory CSRD reporting requires third-party assurance; our VSME export serves as a working basis and for voluntary reporting.

What's the difference between VSME and CSRD?

CSRD is the EU directive (mandatory only for the largest companies). VSME is the voluntary standard for SMEs published by EFRAG in 2024 and recommended by the European Commission in July 2025. It is simpler and self-contained, and it lets you answer supply-chain requests without the full complexity of the CSRD.

Who can see my assessment?

Only you. The data is stored encrypted in Supabase (EU). We don't share it with banks or third parties without your explicit authorisation. You can request deletion at any time.

Does the calculator cover my market?

The criteria follow European standards (VSME/CSRD/EFRAG), so the framework applies across the EU. The sector benchmarks are currently Iberian (PT+ES) and are being extended. For specifics of your national regulatory framework, consult an advisor.

How much does it cost?

The individual assessment is free. For advisors and accountants assessing multiple clients, there is a bulk mode with a free plan for up to 10 clients.
