Stop chasing your portfolio for sustainability data.

Regulators, buyers, LPs and boards all want evidence from the companies you back - and today it is collected by email campaign and spreadsheet. Steward places an AI agent inside each portfolio company; yours coordinates with all of them and briefs you only when a decision needs you.

The briefing, not the dashboard.

The Sponsor's Steward

The judgement work stays with you. The chasing leaves.

ONE

While you're reading this, your Steward is at work.
No dashboard to refresh. No tab to leave open. The agent operates continuously - reading new guidance, drafting responses, monitoring your portfolio's positions across every standard your buyers and lenders use.

TWO

Your Steward coordinates with theirs.
Every company in your portfolio runs its own Steward. When something changes on their side - a corrective action filed, a certificate updated, an audit closed - their Steward tells yours, directly. No emails, no chasing. The hive is the layer between them.

THREE

When a decision is needed, a question.
Most of what your Steward does doesn't need you. When something requires your judgement - a compliance call, a confirmation, a yes - you get a message. Three buttons. The rest happens.

FOUR

Your team's week, returned.
The judgement work - supplier strategy, risk decisions, what to escalate to the board - stays with your team. What leaves their week is the clerical labour underneath.

Live coordination

Real-time reporting from the portfolio, shown as a briefing.

Corrective actions, certificate renewals, and data requests arrive as decision moments. Steward verifies the evidence and asks for the judgement only when judgement is needed.

I checked their documentation - the corrective actions look compliant.

Should I let the team know?

When a supplier fails, the replacement is a query.

Sourcing a verified alternative used to be a six-month project: long-lists, questionnaires, site visits, hope. In the hive, candidate suppliers carry verified non-financial credentials before you ever contact them.

The Walkthrough

Real data from the last mile of your chain.

The hardest data in any supply chain sits at the bottom: the tier-2 facility with no ERP, no sustainability function, and no patience for your portal. A walkthrough video is the lowest-friction data instrument that exists - point a phone, walk the floor, done. Steward extracts the structured data points on the other end: timestamped, frame-linked, hard to fabricate, trivial to produce.

Your suppliers get the advisor, not just the request: each walkthrough hands them a fix-first list. Data collection that improves the facility is data collection that gets done.

Days, not months

Deployment starts with the work already in motion.

Steward does not require a portal rollout before value appears. Each company runs its own Steward, connected to its existing evidence. Yours coordinates across them and briefs your team when a judgement call is needed.

Day 1

Select the companies

Choose the portfolio companies, suppliers, or facilities where Steward should begin.

Days 2-5

Connect existing evidence

Each company points its Steward at the documents, folders, certificates, policies, and walkthroughs it already has.

Week 2

First briefing arrives

Your Steward starts surfacing evidence-linked decisions, gaps, and corrective actions without another spreadsheet campaign.

What changes

The same work, on Steward.

And the portfolio doesn't just report faster — it gets better. A structured efficiency review alone typically cuts an SME's energy costs by 16–22%, and verified data unlocks green finance most portfolio companies can't reach today.

The network beneath Steward

Every company keeps its own Steward. Yours coordinates with them.

The hive is the shared layer through which approved evidence, requests, and decisions move agent-to-agent. The sponsor receives a briefing, not a dashboard to operate.

Common questions

What sponsors ask.

Is Steward tied to one framework?

No. Steward is framework-agnostic. Portfolio companies can face different standards, buyer templates, lender questions, and audit formats while the sponsor receives the coordination layer.

What do portfolio companies experience?

They get their own Steward. The request does not become another sponsor portal; it becomes work their Steward helps them complete, source-link, and improve.

Who controls the data?

Each company controls what its Steward shares. Sponsor coordination works through approved evidence, provenance, and explicit decision moments rather than open-ended access.

How does pricing work?

The enterprise sponsor pays for deployment and coordination. Member companies can also subscribe for their own ongoing Steward function.

The judgement work is yours. The clerical work is mine.
