About CarbonTrace
Carbon clarity for everyday IT.
Built for real decisions.
CarbonTrace exists to make useful carbon information part of everyday work: choosing a device, answering a customer or reporting an IT inventory.
25 calculations per month, free. No credit card needed.
Why we built CarbonTrace.
An IT carbon estimate should come with an explanation.
Device information is scattered across manufacturer publications, technical specifications and spreadsheets. CarbonTrace brings it into one repeatable workflow, while keeping the difference between a published footprint and a modelled estimate visible. The aim is practical: help people make and explain better IT decisions.
The principles behind the product.
Clear boundaries, useful output and sources you can inspect.
Show the basis
Keep device inputs, model choices and available source records with the result.
Make uncertainty visible
Label estimates and missing information. A precise-looking number should not hide the limits of the underlying data.
Make the first step accessible
Let people calculate a familiar device and inspect its methodology before choosing a paid plan.
Support both sides of the conversation
Help IT providers deliver useful information to customers and organizations understand their own inventory.
A result is useful when you can explain it.
The calculation is the starting point. Its assumptions, sources and reporting boundary determine how you can use it.
One product. Two everyday uses.
Customer work
IT providers
Calculations for quotes, tenders and deliveries
Internal reporting
Organizations
An IT inventory with its carbon impact
First step
One device
Calculate and inspect its methodology
Next step
Your workflow
Batches, reports and integrations by plan
Understand the sources. Review the scope.
Manufacturer publications and documented category models play different roles. Explore the source library and methodology to see which route supports a result, and what it can tell you.
