Today, we are a global leader in carbon accounting, proudly B-Corp certified and part of the French Tech 120. Our climate suite combines smart data collection with intuitive automation, helping companies measure, reduce, and report their emissions with ease - supported at every step by our in-house climate experts.

More than 4,000 companies in 30+ countries use Greenly to manage their climate strategy: from carbon assessments and life-cycle analyses to SBTi trajectories and compliance with CSRD and CBAM.

We are now a team of 200+ people from 40+ nationalities, based in Paris, Stockholm, London, Barcelona, and New York.

To date, we’ve tracked over 200 million tons of CO₂ through our platform. Our next milestone: 10,000 clients and one billion tons of CO2 under management.

Our Values

• Ambition for climate: Minimize GHG emissions, maximize climate impact
• Deliver with agility: Work in small increments: fail fast, learn fast, win fast
• Own your opportunities: Achieve outstanding results by showing initiative and accountability
• Feedback paves the way: Succeed as a team by helping others progress
• Be one Team: Everyone is included and needed - work together with transparency and respect
