ClimateTicker Green Score · how it's calculated

Greenwashing risk: lowData confidence: medium

Why it's on ClimateTicker

NatureMetrics is a genuine nature-tech enabler: its core product — eDNA-powered biodiversity measurement and its Nature Intelligence Platform — provides the data infrastructure that corporations and conservation organisations need to manage, disclose, and improve their biodiversity footprint, directly supporting TNFD, CSRD, and SBTN compliance. The business does not itself cut emissions or restore nature, but it removes the 'data gap' excuse that has historically allowed greenwashing on biodiversity; its value is real but indirect and contingent on clients acting on the data. No material controversies were found, though NatureMetrics has not publicly disclosed its own SBTi-validated targets or a standalone sustainability report, which limits independent verification of its operational claims.

enablerNatureMetrics sells subscription access to its Nature Intelligence Platform (powered by eDNA laboratory analysis, satellite/geospatial data, and AI) plus consulting services to 600+ corporate and conservation clients across 110 countries, generating recurring SaaS-style revenue alongside project-based field sampling and analysis fees.

Controversy & Greenwashing Watch

lowClient base includes high-impact industries

NatureMetrics' 600+ clients are predominantly multinationals in energy, mining, forestry, and agriculture — sectors with significant biodiversity footprints — raising questions about whether its data is being used to genuinely improve outcomes or to satisfy compliance checkboxes without substantive change.source ↗

lowOwn sustainability disclosures absent

Despite positioning itself as the gold standard for nature transparency, NatureMetrics has not published a standalone sustainability report, GHG inventory, or SBTi commitment for its own operations as of mid-2025, creating a credibility gap.source ↗
