##### ACCELERATING THE RATE OF CLIMATE INNOVATION BY:

Closing the gap between pledges and progress for the built environment through sustainable building material procurement.

[Buildings](https://www.third-derivative.org/portfolio/tag/buildings) [Building Software](https://www.third-derivative.org/portfolio/tag/building-software) [Cohort 24-1](https://www.third-derivative.org/portfolio/tag/cohort-24-1) [Buildings - Enabling Software](https://www.third-derivative.org/portfolio/tag/buildings-enabling-software)

##### PROBLEM FOCUS

Property owners and their supply chains (architects, designers, contractors, and building product manufacturers) have ALL pledged lower-carbon, less toxic, fair-labor, lower-resource, circular buildings and building materials. However, none of them have the information and tools to get there.

##### TECHNOLOGY SOLUTION

ecomedes automates product evaluation and compliance reporting using the largest sustainability catalog for B2B products in the world, with 1.3M products across 10K brands and growing everyday. Its aggregation technology uses machine learning to organize the data across hundreds of disparate sources. Then, ecomedes' curation engine transforms this data into understandable, usable information, in the language of each stakeholder (buyers, sellers, and project team influencers).
