Why We Started ekoIntelligence

Our Mission:  to help create a sustainable and equitable future—one where every community thrives - in balance - within the Earth’s planetary boundaries.


ekoIntelligence was created to address a critical gap in corporate sustainability—bridging the divide between ESG commitments and real-world impact. Traditional ESG frameworks often rely on self-reported data, which can be manipulated or selectively disclosed, allowing companies to greenwash their practices without true accountability.


Recognising this issue, ekoIntelligence was founded to introduce a radical new approach: one that moves beyond superficial ratings to a deeper, evidence-based analysis of corporate behaviour.


The Minds Behind ekoIntelligence


At ekoIntelligence, we are a team of experts in AI, sustainability, finance, and investigative research, united by a common goal—to bring radical transparency to corporate sustainability.

Our diverse backgrounds in data science, environmental policy, behavioural analytics, and forensic auditing allow us to approach ESG challenges from a unique, multi-disciplinary perspective.

By leveraging AI, historical data, and predictive analytics, EkoIntelligence exposes discrepancies between what companies claim and what they actually do. This ensures that businesses are held accountable for both their past actions and their future commitments.

We have seen firsthand how traditional ESG frameworks fail to hold corporations accountable. Our team includes professionals who have worked in sustainability consulting, financial risk assessment, and corporate compliance, giving us an insider’s understanding of how sustainability claims can be manipulated. Combining this expertise with cutting-edge AI and historical harm analysis, we provide an objective, data-driven approach to evaluating corporate responsibility.


Our platform was built for investors, regulators, consumers, and companies who seek the truth about corporate sustainability. Whether it’s detecting greenwashing, identifying systemic risks, or pushing for genuine change, ekoIntelligence empowers stakeholders with the data-driven insights they need to drive meaningful action.

What sets us apart is our commitment to truth and impact. We are not just another ESG rating system—we are a forensic tool designed to detect greenwashing, expose inconsistencies, and provide actionable insights that drive systemic change. By equipping stakeholders with the right information, we empower investors, regulators, and communities to make informed decisions that push businesses toward real, measurable sustainability.

At ekoIntelligence, we don’t just analyse ESG data— we reclaim ESG.
