Hybridity and Tove Ahlström launch AI solution to simplify sustainability reporting
Hybridity, which develops a groundbreaking AI platform for compliance, and Tove Ahlström, a leading expert in sustainability, are initiating a strategic partnership to help companies meet the EU's new requirements under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). The new platform combines AI technology with specific expertise to simplify sustainability reporting and free up time and money for companies to instead focus on business development, so that sustainability goals are achieved faster.

Effective solution for complex requirements
Hybridity's compliance platform supports companies with regulatory compliance, policy optimisation and streamlining of internal and external audits. By codifying regulations, such as CSRD, and conducting a GAP analysis against a company's existing policy documents and sustainability reports, the platform can provide guidance on what needs to be done to meet reporting requirements and succeed with an approved audit. The methodology has been developed together with Tove Ahlström, who through her specialist knowledge in CSRD contributes the expertise needed to ensure that the model's interpretations and reasoning are done correctly.
"With this solution, companies can save time and money by streamlining sustainability reporting. Those resources can instead be invested in innovation and development that contribute to sustainability goals," says Tove Ahlström.
Easy to get started
CSRD requires extensive reporting on, among other things, climate impact, how human rights in the supply chain are respected and how sustainability governance is designed. The platform is already in a testing phase with companies that have completed their double materiality analysis (DMA) and provides concrete support at every step of the reporting process. The collaboration also provides the opportunity to expand support with workshops and training to help more companies understand and meet the requirements.
"It is very valuable to bring in Tove's expertise, as she has experience working manually with sustainability reporting for a number of different companies over the past year," says Joakim Reimar, Chief Strategy Officer and co-founder at Hybridity.
"Together we have mapped every detail in CSRD and trained our AI on it. You upload the company's materiality analysis, policy documents, sustainability reports and other data. The system then identifies which CSRD parameters the company needs to report on and generates complete 'audit-ready' answers based on the company's own documents."
"I am proud to collaborate with Hybridity. Our platform not only makes reporting easier, but also creates conditions for companies to conduct more goal-oriented and effective sustainability work," says Tove Ahlström.
