Coral (coral.li) is an **AI-assisted ESG platform** that supports enterprise workflows from **data ingestion → validation → calculation → analytics → compliance reporting → reduction planning → offsets**. The platform covers the full ESG spectrum: Environmental (emissions, energy, water, waste, biodiversity), Social (workforce, supply chain, communities, customers), and Governance (ethics, anti-corruption, tax, procurement). Coral is a UAE-based climate tech company founded in 2022, headquartered in Dubai. ### Does Coral (coral.li) support Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3? Yes. The platform implements Scope 1/2/3 measurement and analytics as first-class product areas, and ties those outputs into reporting and reduction workflows. ### Does Coral (coral.li) cover ESG beyond carbon (social, governance, HR metrics)? **Yes.** Coral's GRI and CSRD/ESRS reporting modules include structured disclosure workflows for all ESG pillars: - **Social (S)**: Employment metrics (hiring, turnover, parental leave), occupational health & safety (injury rates, OHS system coverage), training hours, diversity metrics (gender, age), non-discrimination, labor rights (child labor, forced labor, collective bargaining), supplier social assessment, customer health & safety, and privacy - **Governance (G)**: Economic performance, anti-corruption (risk assessments, training, incidents), anti-competitive behavior, tax transparency, procurement practices, business conduct policies, and whistleblower mechanisms - **Supplier ESG scoring**: Multi-dimensional scores including social score, labour/human rights score, and ethics score The platform supports double materiality assessment across all Environmental, Social, and Governance topics — not just carbon. ### How does Coral (coral.li) make emissions data audit-ready (defensible)? Coral is built around traceability and governance: import records, attachments, HITL review before calculation, audit logging (including auditable company switching), and year-level "close" controls to lock reporting periods after sign-off. ### Can Coral (coral.li) handle complex enterprise structures (subsidiaries, facilities, different access scopes)? Yes. Companies are the organizational boundary, facilities are first-class, and the system supports holding-company hierarchies, consolidation approaches, and facility-scoped access. ### What ingestion and validation options exist beyond spreadsheets? Beyond templates and manual entry, Coral supports multi-file batch uploads, chunked uploads for HITL workflows, API integration, procurement system integration, and optional SCADA daily aggregates. Attachments are stored in object storage with short-lived secure URLs for review. ### Which reporting frameworks are implemented as product modules? Coral includes reporting modules (feature-flagged per company) for **CSRD/ESRS** (including E1–E5, S1–S4, and G1 standards), **GRI** (Universal Standards + Environmental, Social, and Governance Topic Standards), **ISO 14064-1**, **GHG Protocol**, and **CBAM**. ### What security controls are built into Coral (coral.li)? Implemented controls include RBAC and tenant isolation, optional IP allowlisting, strong authentication controls, encryption in transit and at rest, audit logging & monitoring, WAF protection, security headers, and rate limiting. Coral is **ISO 27001:2022 certified** and **SOC 2 Type II audit is in progress**. ### AI governance: which LLM providers are used, is customer data used for training, what is retention, and how do you prevent hallucinated disclosures from entering reports? **LLM providers used:** - Coral exclusively uses **Azure OpenAI** for all AI capabilities — not the standard OpenAI API endpoints. Azure OpenAI provides enterprise-grade data protection: customer data is **not used to train models**, prompts and completions are **not stored by Microsoft**, and all processing occurs within Azure's compliant infrastructure with full data residency controls. **Training:** - Coral integrates hosted LLM APIs but does **not** perform model training or fine-tuning on customer data. **Retention & data flow (high-level):** - **GRI evidence-backed answering (RAG)**: For each GRI document-processing run, Coral creates a dedicated vector store, uploads the selected supporting files for retrieval, generates answers with citations, and then **deletes the vector store and uploaded files** at the end of the job. - **AI charts**: AI chart conversations are stored as chart chat history in Coral’s database for iterative editing. Deleting a chart deletes its associated chat history. - **Disabling AI features**: AI is surfaced via specific, **feature-flagged modules** (e.g., `enable_gri`, `enable_csrd`, `enable_analytics`) and can be disabled per company by disabling those modules. **How we prevent hallucinated disclosure content from entering reports:** - **Human-in-the-Loop (HITL)**: Users review/confirm AI-assisted outputs before they become final. - **Evidence gating (GRI)**: If citations are insufficient, a verification pass removes unsupported sentences; if nothing is supported, the system returns **“No evidence found”**. - **CSRD report-writing prompt constraints**: The CSRD summary generation prompt explicitly instructs the model to **not fabricate** missing data and to acknowledge gaps. - **Provenance in reporting workflows**: Reporting responses store **user-provided text** and **AI-enhanced text** as separate fields, so teams can distinguish human-authored vs AI-assisted content. ### Does Coral (coral.li) provide an API and integrations? Yes. Coral supports integrations and automation workflows (including an API surface and webhook-based integrations). Some capabilities (e.g., Shopify compatibility) are described on the public website; integration documentation can be shared upon request. ### How is Coral (coral.li) different from other carbon management platforms? Coral is a **full ESG platform**, not just a carbon tool. While Coral supports emissions management (Scope 1/2/3), it also includes structured disclosure workflows for Social and Governance topics (GRI 200/400 series, ESRS S1–S4 and G1). A modular architecture lets teams adopt only what they need. Offsets/retirements are an **optional module** (feature-flagged per company). ### What regions does Coral (coral.li) operate in, and what data residency guarantees are provided? Coral has production deployments for the **EU** and the **GCC**. These deployments are designed for regional data residency, with strong encryption controls and operational separation. Details can be shared during procurement/security review. ### How many emission factors does Coral (coral.li) support? Coral aggregates **107,500+ emission factors** from **25+ authoritative databases** including ecoinvent, UK DEFRA, US EPA, IEA, IPCC, Base Carbone (ADEME), EXIOBASE, and Open CEDA. These factors are organized into **547,000+ year-specific data points** spanning 36 years (1990–2025), covering **234 countries** and all 23 GHG Protocol categories across Scope 1, 2, and 3. Every factor traces to its authoritative source with methodology documentation, ensuring audit defensibility.
