where SMEs get stuck

You know carbon matters. You don't know where to start.

CSRD arrives in 2025–2027

Even without direct obligation, your large clients will ask. And banks now screen suppliers on climate data.

No internal expertise, no budget for hires

A sustainability manager costs €70k+ a year. You need a path you can run with the team you already have.

Free calculators give you a number you can't use

A one-page PDF won't pass an audit, won't win a tender, won't unlock subsidies. You need methodology and receipts.

Built for one champion

You don't need a team. You need a path and a person who picks up the phone.

Most of our SME clients run their climate plan with a single internal champion — often a CFO, an HR lead or an operations manager. Tapio gives that person a guided path, a dedicated expert, and templates that turn collection from a project into a checklist.
