Frequently asked questions
What does Novisto do?
Novisto is sustainability management software that helps enterprises collect, govern and disclose ESG and carbon data. It combines curated metrics, approval workflows and embedded audit trails with reporting, benchmarking and carbon management so boards, CFOs and investors can trust the numbers.
Who is Novisto designed for?
Large, multi-entity organisations with a dedicated ESG or sustainability reporting team. Named customers include Sun Life, Crocs, Metro and Balchem, and the vendor positions the platform for enterprises at all stages of ESG maturity.
What ESG frameworks does Novisto support?
The vendor references evolving disclosure regimes including CSRD, CDP and California SB 253/261, plus ESG ratings and rankings. Report narratives can be drafted against live platform data rather than static spreadsheets.
How long does it take to go live?
No public implementation timeline is published. Expect a phased onboarding measured in months, since metric curation, data collection across sites and control setup are typically required before the first disclosure cycle.
Does Novisto publish pricing?
No. Novisto does not publish a price list; pricing is quoted per enterprise engagement, so buyers should request a scoped proposal based on number of entities, metrics tracked and modules selected.
Does Novisto use AI, and is customer data used to train models?
Novisto markets 'ESG expertise, combined with AI' for disclosures and benchmarking, but its public pages do not describe specific AI features, model providers, or whether customer data trains models. Those points should be confirmed directly with the vendor.
