The framing of Earth and sustainability intelligence as a sevice layer is underdiscussed. The fact that GIS, carbon MRV and biodiversity monitoring are now pluggable capabilities changes how companies can actually approach climate commitments instead of just reporting on them. Curious to see how agentic systems will interact with these layers going foward.
Absolutely — and I feel the same. What excites me is how quickly Earth & sustainability layers are moving from “reporting exercises” to real operational capabilities. We’re already seeing early proof of this shift. Platforms like Breathe ESG, Updapt, and Aplanet are turning carbon accounting, ESG workflows, MRV, and supplier scoring into live systems instead of static PDFs. It’s a subtle but important transition — climate action becomes something you run, not something you compile at year-end.
You’re right: once these layers plug into agentic systems, they stop being compliance tools and start becoming decision engines — influencing procurement, logistics, capital allocation, even product strategy.
I genuinely feel Earth-intelligence-as-a-service is going to be one of the quietest, yet most structural shifts of the decade.
