Win More Sustainability Deals with Less Guesswork
We help you find and prioritize buyers who are actually ready to move on sustainability and give your team clear, tailored messaging for every conversation.
What changes in your next 90 days
Your target lists shrink from “everyone who might care about sustainability” to a focused set of accounts where sustainability is already on the agenda.
Your outreach and proposals reflect each buyer’s actual priorities, rather than generic sustainability messaging.
Your team has a clearer view of which opportunities are worth pursuing and which are unlikely to move this year.
Finding interested companies is not enough. You need to know who is ready to move now and how to speak to them in a way that feels specific, not generic.
Selling Sustainability is uniquely challenging
Finding buyers that are both motivated and able to act on sustainability is difficult.
Buying teams are complex, priorities are often unstated, and public commitments don’t always translate into real projects or budget.
Focus your time on companies with real pressure, budget signals, and capacity to act, not just those who downloaded a report or joined a webinar.
Walk into meetings already knowing what your stakeholders are measured on and how to frame your solution so it feels relevant to their reality.
Give your sales and marketing teams a shared view of “who is ready now,” so prospecting, campaigns and follow‑up feels coordinated instead of ad‑hoc.
Designed specifically for teams selling sustainability and ESG solutions—we equip you with the context, relevance & messaging you need to prospect and close with precision.
20+ years of real deals, not theory
Over two decades of selling sustainability solutions, the same pattern kept appearing: a small subset of accounts are truly ready to move, and each stakeholder defines “value” differently.
In response, we built Penny, our ESG sales intelligence copilot that turns public sustainability data into clear target lists and conversation‑ready messaging for your team.
Penny is our proprietary trained agentic AI that decodes buyer‑readiness signals and personas so your team can identify best‑fit customers and approach them with context and messaging that earn a reply.
What Makes Us Different
Built from real deals, not theory
Most “insights” about sustainability buyers come from reports and frameworks that stay generic. Our approach is grounded in 20+ years of actual deal work across sectors, with thousands of conversations about what it really takes to move from interest to signed work.
That experience is captured in Penny’s buyer readiness signals, maturity levels, and decision‑maker personas, so your team benefits from patterns that have already been tested in the field.
Powered by Penny
Penny analyzes public sustainability disclosures and related signals at scale, then translates them into practical guidance: which accounts to prioritize, what they care about, and how to speak to different stakeholders.
Instead of starting from a blank page or a generic AI prompt, your team starts from intelligence tuned specifically to selling sustainability solutions.
360 Intelligence
You can start small—with a single opportunity brief or a prioritized list for a specific event or segment—and expand into playbooks, ICP refinement, and ongoing support as you see value.
Whether you’re a solo seller with 10 key accounts or an enterprise team running campaigns across hundreds of prospects, the level of insight stays consistent; only the scope changes.
How Penny Works
Penny is the first agentic AI trained on more than 1,304 lines of proprietary context and hundreds of pages of knowledge-base material — including 170+ buyer readiness signals and 8 decision maker personas — specific to selling sustainability solutions.
-
Penny analyzes publicly available data to give you what every solution provider actually needs: specific talking points for decision makers ready to take action.
Instead of generic outreach based on industry or company size, you'll know exactly where a prospect is in their sustainability journey, what they're prioritizing, and how to position your solution in language that resonates with their current reality.
Whether you're a solopreneur with 10 target accounts or an enterprise team managing hundreds of prospects, Penny turns publicly available information into customized messaging strategy. -
Penny examines public sustainability disclosures through multiple analytical lenses—assessing strategic commitments, measuring maturity indicators, evaluating budget signals, and identifying priority areas.
The agent applies pattern recognition across 170+ readiness signals to determine not just what companies are reporting, but what those patterns reveal about buying readiness and decision-maker priorities.
This proprietary framework classifies companies into four distinct maturity levels, each requiring fundamentally different messaging approaches. -
You'll receive actionable intelligence you can use immediately: the company's maturity level, their top 3-5 priority areas, specific messaging recommendations tailored to their stage, and timing signals that indicate buying readiness and more.
Penny shows you which pain points to emphasize, which capabilities to highlight, and what language will land with different decision-maker personas.
No more guessing what to say or leading with generic capabilities—you'll have a customized approach for every conversation.
“The quality and relevance of the output and the depth of information is exponentially better than any other tool we’ve used.”
“I haven’t seen another tool that works like this. It’s unique and our sales team can use it right away. ”

Selling sustainability is uniquely challenging. Ready buyers are difficult to find, buying cycles are long and complex, and green hushing has made it even harder to see where real momentum exists. This means market‑ready solutions to climate change haven’t scaled as far or as fast as they could—and providers of sustainability and climate tech solutions have yet to capture their full share of a market already worth tens of billions of dollars and projected to reach well over USD 100 billion by 2030.
Our goal is twofold: to help sustainability and climate solution providers win the market share they deserve, and to accelerate the implementation of solutions that reduce emissions and build resilience.
Our vision of the future is one where climate and sustainability solutions are ubiquitous in B2B markets—and because of that, the worst impacts of climate change are avoided.
