Traceable emissions data for heavy manufacturing.
Turn fragmented plant records into reviewable emissions calculations, with the source and assumptions attached.
The reporting bottleneck starts in plant records.
From fragmented documents to inputs a reviewer can follow.
Fragmented records
Documents and exports from plant operations.
Inputs to reconcile
Units, reporting periods and source provenance.
Gaps to review
Missing inputs that need a responsible owner.
TAM, SAM, SOM: sized from mapped facilities.
- TAM
1,400+ Ontario NPRI facilities already mapped
Over 21 million tCO₂e of addressable reported emissions.
≈ C$31M ARR at C$22K per facility, per year
- SAM
619 trade-exposed facilities in Ontario and Quebec
Steel 77 · cement and lime 163 · chemical 379.
≈ C$13.6M ARR on the same assumption
- SOM
60–90 named accounts in the Ontario corridor
Hamilton, Sault Ste. Marie and Windsor — founder-led.
C$1.3M–C$2.0M ARR
Facility counts come from public NPRI data loaded in the product. ARR applies the C$22,000 model assumption — not validated pricing — and excludes later CBAM bundles and verifier licences.
Source → calculation → review.
Source
- Import supported documents and exports.
- Retain the original records.
Calculation
- Review inputs, factors and gaps.
- Calculate with assumptions attached.
Review
- Inspect the calculated result.
- Follow the supporting records.
Chemistry alone does not measure full embedded emissions. Energy, activity data and calculation boundaries also matter.
Working software; commercial validation is next.
Product
Deployed working MVP.
Commercial signal
Pre-revenue; one prospective customer has expressed interest.
Founder-reported; not a signed pilot.
Next proof
Paid deployment and buyer-accepted results.

Steel and foundry operations — targeting hypothesis.
- User
- Plant / EHS manager
- Buyer hypothesis
- Facility leadership
- Pilot qualification
- Named owner, permissioned source data, recurring reporting need.
Expansion hypothesis: Ontario and Quebec industrial facilities, after repeatable deployment.
Repeatability before expansion.
Prove value at one facility, then expand.
Annual facility subscription
Enterprise financial-model assumption — not validated pricing or the current public quote.
- Founder-led discovery
- Scoped paid pilot
- Annual deployment
- Reseller-assisted expansion
185 reseller / consultancy contacts: research list, not active partners.
Win on the evidence workflow.
The number is the output. The evidence is the product.
- Used today
Spreadsheets and advisers
C$50K–C$100K per facility, per year.
Annual, static, hard to reproduce.
Trail rebuilt only when an auditor asks.
- Corporate platforms
Persefoni, Watershed, ERP suites
Built top-down for corporate sustainability teams.
Spend-based estimates and corporate rollups.
Configuration-heavy at installation level.
- How we win — VantageHSG
Primary-source, facility-level evidence
Primary-source documents, not spend estimates.
Facility boundary as the unit of record.
Versioned factors and repeat calculation review.
Competitor notes reflect our reading of public positioning. Intended focus, not an exclusive capability claim.
Hamza Shah — founder and sole engineer.
Hamza Shah — sole engineer today
Shipped three iOS apps and Immersive Ads, a marketplace with Stripe payments.
Built the Next.js and PostgreSQL platform end-to-end in roughly 60 days.
Built the EPS, NPRI, CBAM and Bill C-59 calculators in production.
Capacity beyond the founder
Month 4 — industrial sales lead: Ontario corridor deployment.
Months 3–18 — integration contractor: ERP and LIMS connectors, C$24K budgeted.
Per engagement — external ISO 14064 verifier: independent methodology review.
Advisor bench: operators and methodology specialists in recruitment.
Roles and timing are planned from the 18-month budget model, not existing hires. Verifier and advisory relationships are not yet confirmed.
Working software.
The next chapter.
Turn the product into paid facility deployments.
Agree the pilot
Buyer-owned pilot and acceptance criteria.
Demonstrate repeatability
Source-to-review workflow with external methodology review.
Convert to annual deployments
Move from pilot acceptance to recurring facility subscriptions.
Month-18 model target: 12 paying facilities / approximately C$128K ARR
Projection from the financial model.
C$300,000 to validate repeatable deployment.
- Sales / GTM
- C$134,243
- Engineering / infrastructure
- C$126,900
- Legal / verifier / reserve
- C$38,857
- ERP connectors (SAP, Epicor, SYSPRO) shipped to production
- External ISO 14064 verifier review and first accredited-verifier partnership
- 12 paying facilities, about C$128K ARR, and seed-ready at 10+ paying facilities
Planned founder base salary C$50,000/year sits inside the engineering allocation, excluding employer payroll costs. Approximately 17.4 months at modelled gross burn; outcomes are the base-case plan, not commitments.
