Util

Util is the only impact data provider that uses AI across peer-reviewed journals to objectively quantify a company's impact, giving clients the evidence they need to deliver on their sustainability goals. Our proprietary Evidence Engine maps a company's products to 2,000+ sustainability concepts using peer-reviewed academic research as evidence. The result is an objective data set that shows, with evidence, a company's positive and negative impact to the world. Our data helps investors capture a company's potential future value offering, and better understand its risk profile in order to support portfolio construction, client reporting, fund creation, and more. Unlike some traditional ESG data providers that base their scores on subjective or company-reported disclosures, Util bases its evaluations on objective research and quantifiable evidence, shedding light on how a company affects society and the environment at the product level, yielding deeper insights into company exposure.
