    Novisto

    Novisto connects ESG contributor requests, data review and reporting. Its current Carbon offering also documents emissions calculations. Evaluate the metric definitions, evidence, approvals and purchased scope rather than assuming that a reporting platform automatically assures data or achieves targets.

    Evidence: Researched profile

    Built from vendor sources checked ; AI-assisted drafting. Documentation review, not a hands-on test. How pages are made

    Who is Novisto for?

    Organizations coordinating multiple ESG contributors, reviewed metrics and recurring disclosures. Confirm carbon scope, supplier access, integration work, hosting region and review responsibilities in writing. Reporting support and vendor security statements do not establish compliance, external assurance or achieved emissions reductions.

    Novisto may justify a scoped proposal when recurring ESG reporting requires accountable contributors and traceable review across multiple datasets. It is less suitable if the immediate need is a small standalone calculation without the ownership and budget needed for a governed reporting process.

    Watch for: No numeric public subscription price established.

    Capabilities and scope

    Novisto provides ESG data management and reporting with a currently documented Novisto Carbon offering. This profile distinguishes published product scope from the modules and services included in a customer proposal. A Novisto news item dated 31 March 2026 states that Novisto acquired Minimum, a London-based carbon software company.

    Disclosure preparationDocumented by vendor

    The ESG reporting page describes data mapped once to several frameworks, not a guarantee of compliant filing.

    ESG reporting: collection, metrics and disclosure
    Carbon calculation scopeDepends on scope

    Novisto Carbon documents Scope 1, 2 and 3, with 14 Scope 3 categories and Category 15 financed emissions listed separately; confirm licensed scope and methods.

    Current carbon scope
    APIs and data ingestionDepends on scope

    The platform overview documents APIs and the ESG reporting page documents document imports; specific endpoints, connectors, mappings, entitlement and implementation are not automatically included.

    Security and access controlsDepends on scope

    Novisto describes encryption in transit and at rest, permissions, SSO, two-factor authentication and monitoring. QHSEtech did not inspect the underlying audit evidence; verify service scope, identity configuration and current reports during procurement.

    Regional data residencyDepends on scope

    The pricing page advertises options across the EU, Middle East and North America. Obtain the selected region, backup and replication locations, subprocessors and migration terms in the agreement.

    Subscription approach and included support
    Double-materiality assessmentDepends on scope

    Novisto documents impact- and financial-materiality scoring, stakeholder validation and mapping to disclosure requirements. Confirm module, scoring configuration, evidence, governance and applicable framework version; software output does not establish legal sufficiency.

    CDP questionnaire and direct submissionDepends on scope

    The CDP page documents tailored questionnaires, prior-year response reuse, owner tracking, reminders and direct submission through an accredited API. Confirm current accreditation, questionnaire year, API entitlement, submission authority and final review.

    AI-assisted ingestion, search and benchmarkingDepends on scope

    Novisto documents field auto-matching, natural-language search, anomaly identification and peer benchmarking. The vendor says customer data is isolated and not used to train shared models; verify enabled features, citations, retention, model providers, processing region, human review and contractual terms.

    Novisto pricing

    Subscription proposal

    Pricing is not publicly available; request a quote. The pricing page advertises unlimited users, data points and outputs plus a dedicated customer success manager and ESG analyst. It also advertises flexible data-residency options across the EU, Middle East and North America; confirm the exact region, replication, backups and contractual terms. Confirm the modules, supplier access, integrations, implementation, services and renewal terms included in the actual proposal.

    Pricing sources checked : Selected sources checked; no starting price recorded. Rechecked the official product, pricing and security pages. Verified quote-only pricing, advertised regional data-residency options, named access controls and API ingestion. Exact hosting region, underlying assurance reports, offline behaviour, trial terms and contract-specific integrations remain subject to confirmation.

    Which product scope should the quote cover?

    ESG collection, governance and reporting; documented carbon calculation and target capabilities require confirmation in the contracted scope.

    Ask the vendor to identify the product, region, modules, billing unit, contract term and included services in writing.

    Offline work and integrations

    No documented native offline workflow was established from the reviewed pages. Demonstrate the required contributor and reviewer workflow under the intended connectivity conditions.

    Demo script

    Proposed demo: contributor evidence to disclosure

    1. Request a defined metric with its period and organizational boundary.
    2. Upload permitted evidence and submit the response.
    3. Reject an incomplete value and approve its correction.
    4. Trace the approved record into the proposed report and retain its history.

    Proposed demo: supplier input to carbon result

    1. Request one supplier activity dataset using the proposed access model.
    2. Distinguish measured input from estimates and missing values.
    3. Review the selected factor and calculation method.
    4. Change an input and demonstrate review of the revised result.

    Proposed demo: target tracking with a revised baseline

    1. Define an absolute or intensity target with a named owner.
    2. Record a baseline and its boundary and measurement method.
    3. Introduce a justified baseline correction.
    4. Show the effect on progress reporting and preserve the explanation.

    Ask the vendor to show you

    1. Trace one submitted metric from its original evidence through review to the report.
    2. Show supplier data access, missing-data handling and the proposed carbon calculation scope.
    3. Separate included integrations and services from implementation work and recurring fees.

    Questions the sources answer

    Does Novisto only collect externally calculated emissions?

    No. Its current Carbon page documents calculation capabilities. Confirm whether that offering is included in your proposal.

    Does it support supplier data collection?

    Supplier engagement is mentioned in the Minimum acquisition news, not on the Carbon page. Confirm contributor access, licensing and missing-data treatment.

    Are all integrations included?

    API and import capabilities are documented, but a particular connector or completed implementation must be confirmed.

    Does Novisto publish security controls?

    Its security page describes encryption, permissions, SSO, two-factor authentication and monitoring. This review did not inspect underlying audit reports, so request current evidence and verify its scope for the contracted service.

    Can reviewers work offline?

    Offline reviewing and synchronization were not established. Request a demonstration of the exact workflow.

    Does Novisto provide external assurance?

    Software review controls and evidence trails do not replace an independent assurance engagement.

    Is there a verified free trial?

    No general free-trial terms were established. The reviewed pages offer demonstrations.

    Does tracking a target prove it was achieved?

    No. Progress depends on valid measurements, consistent boundaries and actual operational change. Preserve corrections and supporting evidence.
