Why we exist

The sustainability market has no front door.

Choosing the right sustainability solution shouldn't be this hard. Businesses face thousands of options, with no easy way to find trusted ones.

Our founders felt this firsthand. Then they found they weren't alone. 1,100+ sustainability leaders signalled that they'd hit the same wall.

They've worked both sides of the market. As buyers, hunting for the right solution. As providers, struggling to be found. And they kept seeing the same thing. Strong solutions overlooked. Businesses settling. And nobody had the data to see where the market was heading.

So we built KanataQ. One trusted place to discover, compare and connect with sustainability solutions. And ranking can't be bought.

Our mission: to accelerate the global sustainability transition by making the market more connected, transparent and efficient.

GENERAL

What is KanataQ?

The trusted hub for sustainability solutions.

Buyers search, compare, and connect with trusted sustainability and ESG consulting, data, and software providers, across 70+ categories.

Used by sustainability, procurement, and finance teams choosing a provider, and by consultants/investors researching the market.

Is KanataQ free?

Yes, for buyers. Searching, comparing, and contacting providers is free. Providers can list one solution free, and upgrade to Pro from £200 a month.

How does KanataQ make money?

Providers pay for Pro, and buyers, consultants, and investors pay for Intelligence.

We also earn referral fees from some of our partners, such as Higher Impact, when you choose to use them. We never take a commission on deals between buyers and solution providers, charge per lead, or sell ranking.

What is the Trust Score?

A real-time score, capped at 100%, that shows how credible and reliable a solution is.

It’s based on client endorsements (60%), revenue status (15%), LinkedIn followers (10%), years in business (5%), leads-to-views ratio (5%) and how up to date it is (5%). Every listing can reach any score, free or Pro.

Solutions scoring 75%+ get 7× more views and up to 3× more leads.

What is KanataQ Intelligence?

Live buyer demand and monthly market benchmarks across sustainability. It's included in Pro, and buyers, consultants and investors can get access by talking to us.

FOR PROVIDERS

How do I list or update my solution?

Create a free account and complete the listing form. Most listings take about 10 minutes, and our team reviews every one, usually within 24 hours, before it goes live.

To update it later, log in, open your listing, make your changes and select Update.

Can I list the same product more than once?

No. Only Pro providers can list more than one solution, and each listing must be distinct (by solution, use case or target market), so buyers never see the same solution twice.

Can I pay to rank higher?

No. Search and Matchy (our AI agent) rank every listing the same way, using the required fields every provider fills in, so complete, accurate listings, match more buyer requests.

Pro gives you more ways to be found, and more ways for buyers to reach you, never a better position.

What does Pro include?

Everything in Free, plus up to 6 solution listings and richer listings (with demo videos, screenshots, documents, client logos and news).

On Free, buyers reach you through your website and social links; Pro adds direct email and one-click meeting bookings.

You also get performance stats, Intelligence covering supply and demand insights, and premium support.

How much does Pro cost?

Pro starts at £200 a month, depending on your company size. You get 2 months free (from £2,000 a year) if you pay annually. Monthly plans can be cancelled anytime. Contact us to see your price.

SUPPORT
