Frequently asked

Use these questions and answers to learn more about how GLYNT.AI prepares Scope 3, supply chain, and PCF data.

What's the difference between a company-wide carbon footprint and a product carbon footprint?

A company-wide footprint totals Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions across the whole business. A product carbon footprint (PCF) allocates a share of that combined total to a single unit of a single product. GLYNT.AI calculates the company-wide, activity-based number from primary invoice data and emissions factors, then uses your own sales and production data to divide it down to the product level for PCF reporting.

Why not just report the numbers our suppliers give us?

A supplier’s self-reported number is secondary data you can’t independently verify — and most suppliers don’t have the rigor in place to produce audited data. That leaves you in a bind: regulations and industry standards increasingly demand audited or verified Scope 3 and PCF reporting, but supplier-provided data remains weak. GLYNT.AI’s migration plan puts you in control of that data quality, rather than waiting on your suppliers to get there first.

Do we need to replace the LCA software we use for product carbon footprint reporting?

No. LCA software is a fine starting point — it produces product carbon footprints using industry-average data, plus basic details about your products and company. From there, identify your emissions hotspots and key vendors, and replace their averages with detailed, primary data first. Add another supplier group each year, and let LCA software continue to estimate the long tail.

Can we share data directly with our customers?

Yes. In the automotive industry, GLYNT.AI already helps suppliers report PCF data into Catena-X, the industry’s shared data exchange network. And across numerous industries, PCF reporting is already required in some cases, and expanding to more within a year or two. GLYNT.AI provides the single source of truth on sustainability data, expanded to fit your business and reporting needs — so you’re ready to share corporate and PCF data.

Do we need to replace our carbon accounting software?

No. GLYNT.AI is the data layer underneath it. GLYNT.AI delivers the accurate, audit-ready data those platforms need, and provides you with additional customized reports for PCF and other data sharing.
