Agents that change something
Workflow-native AI, built for accountable action
Each one owns a workflow end to end and hands you something you can file. 3 are live today. Deploy only what you need.
Data Ingestion Agent
Reads the evidence you already have and writes audit-ready entries, with the source document attached to every figure.
- Reads
- Utility billsFuel logsMeter photosChallans
- Writes
- Scope 1 & 2 entriesSource-linked audit trail
Replaces
Manual re-keying from PDFs and photos into spreadsheets
Need a specialised workflow? Build a bespoke agent.
Bespoke agents trained on your documents, your factor library and your approval chain, deployed into the same audited platform, so a custom agent is still evidence-linked and still assurable.
The roster
See the evidence each agent reads and the output it creates
The write column is the part that matters. An agent that only reads is a search box.

FAQ
AI agents for ESG, answered
What the agents do, what they touch, and how their work stays auditable.
What is an AI agent for ESG?
An ESG AI agent completes a defined workflow rather than simply answering questions. Karbon agents can read evidence such as utility bills, fuel logs, meter photos and challans, perform workflow steps and write traceable outputs into the ESG system.
Which AI agents are available in Karbon?
Karbon has multiple specialised agents across data ingestion, benchmarking, materiality, water stewardship, reporting and decarbonisation. Three are live, one is in beta, and additional agents are being built. Bespoke agents can also be developed for specific workflows.
Are Karbon AI agent outputs auditable?
Yes. Agent outputs remain linked to their source evidence and workflow history. Because the agents operate within the same Karbon environment, their outputs can be reviewed, traced and incorporated into an auditable ESG process.
Can you build a custom AI agent for our workflow?
Yes. Planet Sustech can build bespoke agents around your documents, factor library, workflow and approval chain. They operate within the same audited environment, keeping custom outputs evidence-linked, reviewable and traceable.
