Pioneering AI for environmental solutions
Ubuntoo has unveiled an innovative AI system designed specifically for environmental practitioners, marking a significant step forward in sustainability-focused technology.
Curated environmental intelligence
Built upon a rich database of expertise cultivated over five years, Ubuntoo offers a unique suite of curated solutions and intelligence. This distinct approach sets the platform apart from other large language AI platforms and offers users a more specialised experience.
Adoption by industry leaders
Already integral to the operations of Fortune 500 companies like The Coca Cola Company, Target, and Subway, Ubuntoo is now expanding its reach to a broader market. The platform equips companies and institutions with the knowledge they need to enhance their sustainability efforts economically, challenging the traditional, more costly consultancy models.
Founders' vision
Peter Schelstraete and Venkatesh Kini, both former Vice Presidents at Coca-Cola, co-founded Ubuntoo. They have positioned their creation as the 'green ChatGPT', a nod to the popular conversational AI but with a focus on sustainability.
A toolbox for corporate sustainability
Ubuntoo's user-friendly software tackles corporate sustainability challenges, offering actionable solutions across various environmental issues such as plastic reduction, recycling, energy transition, and supply chain efficiencies.
Peter Schelstraete comments on the platform's mission: "As global environmental legislation tightens, and consumers grow more environmentally conscious, businesses are full of ambition to be part of the solution … However, even for the most ambitious companies, it remains very hard to implement an ESG strategy. With Ubuntoo AI, we are leveraging AI and human expertise to provide better access to environmental solutions."
Rising trend of ESG strategies
The adoption of ESG strategies by private sector organisations is on the rise as businesses seek to align with consumer expectations for sustainable products and practices. Nonetheless, the complexity of executing comprehensive ESG goals remains a significant hurdle.
Expert endorsement
Gianni Giacomelli, Head of Design Innovation at MIT’s Collective Intelligence Design Lab, recognises the potential impact of platforms like Ubuntoo: "Collectively, the world's knowledge and the ingenuity of experts can give us many of the answers we need to address our sustainability challenges … Ubuntoo's work can truly help here."
Mike Kehoe, EMEA President at Subway, shares his experience with the platform: "Whether it is to achieve more sustainable packaging or reduce carbon emissions, it is vital for our teams to have access to the most relevant solutions and industry best practices. Ubuntoo’s AI-driven wealth of expertise provided me with the means to make informed decisions in real time at a fraction of the cost of a traditional consultant. We used their platform to successfully transition to sustainable uniforms for our sandwich artists in Europe.”
Ubuntoo stands at the forefront of merging AI with environmental expertise, offering a new horizon for businesses striving for sustainability.
