Arbor is a carbon accounting platform for product-based companies and supply chains. It calculates product, asset and organizational emissions across Scopes 1, 2 and 3, combining primary and secondary data. Sustainability, procurement, product and supply-chain teams can use it for product carbon footprints, supplier engagement, hotspot analysis, transportation-emissions measurement and regulatory reporting. Its modeling focus suits organizations that need bottom-up emissions data connected to product decisions.

The plans are structured around calculation depth and access. Starter offers self-serve access, high-level hotspot analysis, pay-per-product pricing, cradle-to-gate calculations, custom reports and one seat. Unlimited costs $2,500 per month when billed annually and adds unlimited calculations, unlimited materials access, cradle-to-grave calculations, custom materials, prototyping, versioning, onboarding and email support. Enterprise adds API access, custom integrations, role-based access control, dedicated support, SAML login and custom country hosting. Choose Starter for focused product work; choose Unlimited or Enterprise when modeling breadth, collaboration or administrative controls matter.

Arbor’s strongest fit is a product and supply-chain workflow rather than a narrow emissions ledger. Multi-component product modeling, supplier data collection, transportation measurement, scenario analysis and versioning support iterative product development and decarbonization planning. Shopify and PLM integrations connect the platform with product and commerce workflows, while API access supports broader integration needs. Teams seeking product-level Scope 1–3 analysis and audit-ready reporting should consider Arbor; organizations that do not need product, supplier or scenario modeling may find this breadth less relevant.
