This blog post is part of our monthly platform update series – a snapshot of how Carbonfact's platform evolves over time. Features and visuals may have changed since publication. Curious what the platform looks like today? Reach out to our team.

Greetings from Carbonfact! It's Martin here. Today, I'm excited to introduce you to something we've been passionately working on: "Trends".

In the fast-paced world of fashion, relying on last year's carbon accounting data can feel like looking in a rearview mirror. But what if you could get a real-time snapshot of your emissions trajectory?

Questions You Can Answer With Trends

 And what if you had answers to these questions: 

• Are you on track to meet your carbon reduction goals?
• What is your projected year-end carbon performance? 
• What are the specific drivers influencing the decrease or increase in footprint?
• What are the areas (category, supplier, material, or products) that drive the increase, and can it be course-corrected?

With "Trends", all these insights are now available to you, making your footprint data not just informative, but actionable. Watch this video to see an example.
