Frequently asked questions
I have more questions, how can I contact you?

Please get in touch with us, and we'll be happy to help (we’re a friendly bunch).

Do you offer special plans for academics or non-profits?

Climatiq, as a registered B Corporation, partners with academic institutions and not-for-profits. We offer free and discounted packages to NGOs and academic institutions. Please use your university or non-profit email address so we can verify your association with the institute, or get in touch with us for further information.

Can I get a quote or purchase order for a custom license?

Yes, please contact us, and we'll be happy to set this up for you.

Is there a free trial for the API?

Yes, we offer free trials for evaluation and development, with usage limits. Please contact our team to request an API trial.

What counts as an API call?

An API call occurs each time your application successfully requests data or performs a calculation using the Climatiq API. We don’t count unsuccessful requests or calls that result in an error message against your usage.

How is API usage priced?

API pricing is typically based on data access and API call volume, depending on the plan.

Can I buy both Data Studio and API access?

Yes. Many customers use the API for automation and product integrations, while also using Data Studio for internal analysis and verification. Get in touch with us to discuss your needs for an enterprise plan.

Do I need to enter my credit card details to sign up for the Starter plan?

No credit card is required for the Starter plan. Feel free to sign up to start exploring our emission factor data.

Is it possible to license EXIOBASE 3.11+?

Yes, EXIOBASE 3.11+ is available as a premium dataset, which can be added on top of a Data Pro subscription. A Data Pro subscription is required in order to purchase EXIOBASE 3.11+.

Is it possible to license ecoinvent?

Yes, ecoinvent is available as a premium dataset, which can be added on top of an enterprise subscription. Please note that we only make ecoinvent available for calculations via our API or Add-Ins, so you need a subscription that covers access to these products.

What are advanced filters?

Advanced filters let you narrow the emission factor you’re working with using detailed metadata fields — GHG scope, LCA stage, category, sector, and unit type. The feature is available on the Data Pro Plan and above.

What are premium datasets?

Premium datasets include emission factors we license from partners such as ecoinvent at an additional cost. We therefore charge extra for these datasets and the price varies by dataset and access level. You can view all premium datasets here.

Which emission factor databases are included in Data Pro?

Data Pro gives you full access to all Core emission factor datasets, as well as the option to purchase EXIOBASE 3.11+ from our premium datasets. A Data Pro or enterprise subscription is required in order to purchase premium datasets.

Do you offer plans for team-wide access?

Data Pro includes a single user license. If you are interested in a commercial plan covering team- or org-wide access to Climatiq’s data and tools, please contact our sales team.

What is detailed metadata?

Climatiq emission factors come with normalized and enriched metadata covering their origin, methodology, and classification.

The Starter Plan includes limited metadata: source, dataset, year, and region.

Data Pro and Enterprise plans unlock the full set covering GHG scope, LCA stage, category, sector, and more. This data is key for ensuring you have auditable, fully documented emission factors for your reports.

What currency can I pay in?

We offer plans in EUR, GBP and USD. Please contact us and we'll set it up for you.

Can I buy Data Pro to use as a consultant?

As a consultant looking to use Climatiq's data and tools for commercial use, you need to tick "I'm a consultant" before purchasing your Data Pro Plan. The standard Data Pro plan does not include commercial licensing rights.

If you're a consultant or software vendor interested in Excel or API use, please get in touch with us to discuss licensing and partnership options.

What are emission factor exports?

Emission factor exports let you download emission factors directly from Data Studio. You can search and filter for what you need, click "export", and you'll get a normalised CSV file with all the methodology details and metadata included. Emission factor exports are available on Data Pro or Enterprise plans.

What does commercial use mean?

Commercial use refers to any use that is primarily intended for or directed toward commercial advantage or monetary compensation such as consulting work or building a software product. This includes using Climatiq’s products, data, or outputs as part of a commercial product, service, or business activity that generates revenue or provides a commercial benefit.

I have feedback to share on PCF Studio. What should I do?

We’d love to hear it! PCF Studio is currently in beta so your input will help shape what we build next. Get in touch with our team and share your thoughts.

Can I use ecoinvent for PCF calculations?

Yes, ecoinvent is available for our paid plans. Contact our team to learn more.

What data sources are available in PCF Studio?

On the free plan, you can make use of all relevant activity-based Core data sources for your PCF calculations. If you need access to premium data sources such as ecoinvent, Carbon Minds, or IEA, get in touch with our team.

What paid plans for PCF Studio will be available?

We will offer two options:

Single PCFs: A one-time purchase for a fully exportable, immutable, and compliant PCF. Ideal if you only need to produce one or two PCFs for a specific customer.

Annual subscriptions: Designed for users who create or edit PCFs regularly. Subscriptions are available for different PCF volumes, features, and access to premium data.

Get in touch with our team to learn more.

Will there still be a free tier for after the PCF campaign ends?

Yes – you’ll always be able to create and edit PCFs for free on the Starter plan. Paid plans will unlock exports and sharing, use of premium data sources like ecoinvent, custom supplier factors, audit-ready documentation aligned with ISO 14067 and GHG Protocol Product Standard, and more.

What happens to my PCFs once the free PCFs have been claimed?

Any PCFs that you’ve already created will remain accessible in PCF Studio. You’ll be able to access, edit and export them, even if you continue on the free Starter plan.

Are PCFs free to create in PCF Studio?

Yes – to let you try out how fast and easy creating a reliable product carbon footprint can be, we’re making the first 10,000 PCFs created in PCF Studio completely free. Get started here.
