Taster: one real Opportunity from your own evidence, for under £1,000
We take one topic from your sustainability report or EcoVadis evidence to full depth, test it against more than 2,000 proven precedents, and count how many more Opportunities the same method finds in every other topic. A written report, usually within three working days of a short scoping call. £950 + VAT.
What do you get from a Taster?
The Taster runs the same method as a full Ground report: extraction, ESRS tagging, benchmarking and evidence-based discovery, across everything you send us. The difference is depth.
- Everything is processed. Every material topic present runs through the same method, not just one.
- One topic goes to full depth. Real precedent from our evidence base, developed Opportunity concepts, each rated for evidence certainty and recommendation strength.
- Every other topic gets a count. How many Opportunities the method found in each, with no names or detail yet.
Which topic do you take to full depth?
Never one of your two biggest. We pick a representative topic from the middle of your evidence, because the most obvious one is the easiest to look good on and the least honest guide to what the method finds everywhere else. The Taster is built to show you the truth of the method, not a flattering highlight.
What can you send us?
A published sustainability report is ideal. A supplier without one can send the evidence behind an EcoVadis submission or a Carbon Reduction Plan instead: policies, energy and emissions data, targets and actions. If we're already helping you with EcoVadis, the Taster runs on the same files.
What does a Taster cost?
| Option | Fee |
|---|---|
| Taster | £950 + VAT |
| Founding EcoVadis clients | Free, in return for a short testimonial |
It credits forward. Move to a Ground report within 30 days and we deduct the £950 in full, so your first Ground report costs £5,050 instead of £6,000. You lose nothing by starting small.
