The intelligence engine — data you can't buy anywhere else

Shelf reality meets structured intelligence.

Four-stage pipeline. Each stage adds signal the others can't generate.

GreenSpecs scan
Consumer points phone at shelf. Gemini Flash reads every visible claim, certification mark, and eco-label on the packaging in real time.
~$0.001 / scan
Gemini claim parsing
AI extracts structured claims: certifications, carbon statements, ingredient sourcing, packaging specs. Cross-referenced against YKO's certification intelligence database.
Structured + sourced
Six-dimension risk score
Certifications, supply chain, carbon, packaging, narrative integrity, and circularity — each weighted, confidence-rated, and gap-flagged. Score 0–100.
Confidence: high / medium / low
Brand intelligence dashboard
Brands see their score, competitor benchmarks, scan-level demand data, and SB 253 gap analysis. Investors see portfolio risk. Procurement sees supplier exposure.
Real shelf demand signal
The scan data is the moat. No sustainability rating agency captures real consumer shelf-scan signal. That demand data attached to an independent score is what enterprise buyers pay for.
For brand sustainability leads

Send your suppliers a custom Scope 3 calculator. Get structured data back.

YKO generates a calculator specific to your supplier's operation — dairy farm, glass manufacturer, trucking company — with the right emission factors for that industry. They fill it in. You get structured data, not a PDF.

1
You create a supplier token — takes 30 seconds, no spreadsheet.
2
Supplier opens their unique link, answers a custom calculator for their industry.
3
Structured emission data lands in your YKO dashboard. SB 253 Scope 3 gap fills automatically.
