Pantas utilizes AI to automate and streamline every step of your carbon accounting journey, from initial data entry to final analysis. First, during data collection, our AI automates tedious manual work by using OCR to read utility bills and intelligently mapping your business data to the correct activities. Next, in the calculation phase, AI ensures precision by automatically assigning the correct, compliant emission factor to each activity based on its unique context, like location and date. It also acts as a quality check by flagging any data anomalies it detects. Finally, for on-demand analysis, our AI-powered Natural Language Query allows you to instantly visualize your data just by asking simple questions. For instance, you can type "Show me our Scope 2 emissions trend for the last 4 quarters," and the platform will immediately generate the corresponding chart, offering deep insights without needing to build complex reports. #### You mention "Automate Utility Bills with OCR." Can it extract data from any utility bill format, including physical scanned copies? Our platform uses an AI-powered Optical Character Recognition (OCR) engine to automate data extraction from your utility bills. It is trained to process numerous formats, whether digital PDFs or scanned physical copies, and automatically extracts critical data points like consumption amounts and dates. This eliminates tedious manual data entry and reduces the risk of human error. For the highest accuracy, we recommend using clear, high-resolution documents, as the performance of OCR technology is always dependent on the quality of the source image. #### What is the "Natural Language Query" feature and how does it work? Natural Language Query (NLQ) allows users to ask questions of their data using plain, conversational language, rather than complex code or filter menus. The system's AI interprets the question and retrieves the corresponding data. Pantas embeds NLQ into its analytics dashboard. You can simply type questions like "What were our Scope 1 emissions last quarter?" or "Show me emissions from our Malaysian sites" into a search bar. The platform instantly understands your query and generates the relevant chart or data. #### How does the anomaly detection feature help identify errors in our data? AI-driven anomaly detection learns the normal patterns and historical trends within a dataset to automatically flag any data points that deviate significantly from the expected norm, which could indicate errors. Pantas uses this AI to ensure data quality. The platform continuously monitors your incoming data for unusual spikes, dips, or outliers based on your historical consumption patterns. It then alerts you to these potential errors, allowing you to investigate and correct them early in the process. #### How reliable is the AI in suggesting the correct emission factors? AI in carbon accounting can improve accuracy by referencing a user's inputs—like location, activity type, and date—to select the most appropriate emission factor from a vast, multi-dimensional database. Pantas’s AI cross-references your activity data with its library of thousands of regularly updated, compliant emission factors (e.g., IEA, GHG Protocol). By matching data attributes to the correct factors, it minimizes human error and ensures the calculations are precise, defensible, and aligned with international standards. ### Compliance with Sustainability Reporting #### What global reporting standards and frameworks does your platform support? Sustainability platforms must support a multitude of global reporting frameworks to be effective, as companies often need to report to different standards simultaneously. Pantas is built for global compliance and is rigorously aligned with all major international and local reporting standards. Our platform supports frameworks including the GHG Protocol, GRI, IFRS S1 and S2, ISO standard (such as ISO 14064-1), the Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials (PCAF), CDP (formerly the Carbon Disclosure Project), and the Global Logistics Emissions Council (GLEC) Framework. This allows you to generate disclosure-ready reports directly from a single data source, ensuring consistency and saving significant preparation time. #### As a Malaysia-based company, how can my company comply with Malaysia's National Sustainability Reporting Framework (NSRF)? Pantas provides a software solution designed specifically for Malaysian companies to streamline compliance with the National Sustainability Reporting Framework (NSRF). Our platform automates the most time-consuming task: mapping your operational data directly to the required NSRF templates, which significantly reduces manual effort and enhances reporting accuracy. To simplify regulatory oversight, the system also integrates essential governance workflows, helping you manage board-level attestations seamlessly. Crucially, we ensure your local NSRF reporting aligns with global standards like IFRS S1 and S2, future-proofing your disclosures for international stakeholders. #### How can a public-listed company automate its sustainability data collection and reporting? Pantas enables public-listed companies (PLCs) to fully automate their sustainability data collection and reporting. Our platform integrates seamlessly with your core business systems—including ERPs, procurement tools, and utility databases—to create a continuous, real-time flow of data into a single source of truth. From this centralized data, you can generate comprehensive, audit-ready disclosures aligned with key global standards, including IFRS S1 and S2 and the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). This level of automation significantly reduces manual workload, eliminates data inconsistencies, and ensures your company is always prepared for regulatory and investor scrutiny. #### Is there software that allows reporting for both IFRS S1 and S2 from a single data source? Yes, modern sustainability platforms like Pantas enable reporting for both IFRS S1 and IFRS S2 from a single data source. The software works by mapping centralized data to the specific disclosure requirements of each standard, ensuring complete consistency across reports. This process eliminates duplicate work and makes meeting the latest ISSB benchmarks highly efficient. #### Why do financial institutions and other asset management firms use sustainability platforms? Financial institutions and other asset management firms use sustainability platforms to automate compliance with evolving regulations, quantify climate-related financial risks, and qualify for green financing opportunities. Platforms such as Pantas provide the specific tools financial institutions and other asset management firms need to manage complex climate data in line with the IFRS S1 & S2 and Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials (PCAF).
