Trace’s own description, from its site: “Trace combines AI-powered software with expert advisory support to help organisations meet their mandatory climate and sustainability reporting obligations, efficiently and with confidence”

Its site is now mostly about Australia’s ASRS rules and uses Australian emission factors; UK SRS appears on its pricing page.
