STEP 2: MAP YOUR OBLIGATIONS (5 minutes)
What it does: Identifies which Australian and international regulations apply to your operation.
How to use it:
- Enter what you know about your organisation:
- Commodity type (iron ore, gold, coal, etc.)
- Group structure (standalone, subsidiary, parent company)
- Geographic location (state, country)
- Leave blank any fields you don't know
- Get instant results showing:
- "May reach you": Regulations that apply at your threshold
- "Unsettled": Regulations where it depends on additional info
What to expect: Results like "ASRS Scope 1+2 applies," "NGER applies," "GRI 305 applies"
Key insight: This tool answers "Which compliance standards do I actually need to worry about?"
STEP 3: ASSESS YOUR READINESS (8 minutes)
What it does: Tests whether you have evidence for the key requirements of each applicable regulation.
How to use it:
- You'll be asked ~30-50 questions like:
- "Can you produce your Scope 1 emissions inventory?"
- "Do you have documented community engagement for the past 3 years?"
- "Can you provide third-party assurance of your carbon offset purchases?"
- For each question, answer:
- ✅ Yes (you have it)
- ❌ No (you don't have it)
- ❓ Unsettled (you're not sure)
- Get instant readiness score showing:
- Evidence you have (%)
- Evidence gaps (%)
What to expect: A report showing "60% ready for NGER reporting" with gaps highlighted
Key insight: This tool answers "What evidence am I actually missing?"
STEP 4: CHECK CLAIM INTEGRITY (5 minutes)
What it does: Verifies that claims you plan to publish have backing from published sources.
How to use it:
- Pick a claim you want to make (e.g., "We are carbon neutral," "We operate under FPIC")
- The tool shows:
- What published sources say that claim means
- What evidence you'd need to prove it
- What gates (requirements) stand between you and the claim
- The tool checks:
- ✅ Do you have the evidence?
- ⚠️ Are there gaps?
- 🚫 Do you meet the definition?
What to expect: A verdict like "Carbon neutral claim is supported by 7/11 sources, gaps: offset quality"
Key insight: This tool answers "Can I actually defend this claim?"
STEP 5: EXPORT YOUR EVIDENCE PACK (3 minutes)
What it does: Creates an audit-ready export of all your answers, evidence, and citations.
How to use it:
- Review your answers across all tools
- Click "Export Evidence Pack"
- Choose format:
- PDF (for auditors)
- CSV (for your records)
- JSON (for integration)
- You get:
- Timestamped export
- Citation backs for every claim
- Evidence tracking
- Gaps highlighted
What to expect: A professional document showing all your evidence, mapped to standards, ready for audit
Key insight: This tool answers "What does my audit-ready package look like?"

KEY PRINCIPLES
✅ No Benchmarks
Every figure comes from what you enter. No industry averages. No guesses.
✅ No Guessing Thresholds
If the tool can't settle a threshold, it says so. You decide, not the software.
✅ Evidence Only
The tool shows what you can produce, not whether you're compliant. Compliance is a legal question, not a math problem.
✅ Citations Everywhere
Every source mentioned in the tool is on the Standards Register. No made-up references.
✅ Privacy First
Your data stays in your browser. Nothing is sent to us. You control export.
