Overview
Altruistiq (the trading name of Expanding Circle Ltd, incorporated in England in January 2021) is a carbon accounting and ESG reporting platform aimed at food and beverage enterprises with complex, multi-tier supply chains spanning farms, processors, co-packers and packaging suppliers. It runs corporate greenhouse-gas accounting, product-level carbon footprinting, and supplier data collection on a single ISO14064-1 assured calculation engine so that figures stay consistent across all three.
The platform is built around an emissions-factor library of 220,000+ curated factors updated quarterly, GHG Protocol aligned methodology, and PACT/PEF aligned product carbon footprint (PCF) calculations. Evie AI, an AI agent trained on sustainability frameworks (CSRD, GHG Protocol, ISO standards, CDP), automates data cleaning, anomaly detection, natural-language queries over emissions data, and drafting of recurring reports, with all changes routed through human approval and a full audit trail. A supplier engagement program handles outreach, data validation and quality scoring, which Altruistiq reports achieves a 47 percent average supplier response rate against a stated industry standard of around 10 percent.
Customers named on Altruistiq site include Starbucks, Kraft Heinz, Huel, Meadow Foods, Sugal Group, GrowUp Farms, Stuart and Nandos. The company is SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certified, hosts on AWS, and integrates with source ERP systems (it names SAP and Oracle) through a push-based model in which the customer controls data transfer rather than Altruistiq accessing systems directly. Altruistiq is B Corp certified and holds a PACT Technical Advisor role on the Agri-Food Extension of the PACT data exchange standard.
