Auquan has announced the launch of its Sustainability Agent, an AI-powered tool designed to free sustainability teams from the burden of tedious and time-consuming manual tasks.
“At Auquan, our mission is to liberate financial professionals from soul-sapping manual tasks and bring meaning back to their work. With our Sustainability Agent, we’re empowering teams to escape the endless cycle of manual data gathering and report writing so they can focus on the initiatives that reduce risk, improve stakeholder engagement, and create lasting impact,” said Chandini Jain, CEO of Auquan.
Sustainability professionals in the financial sector often find themselves caught in an endless loop of data gathering, risk analysis, and report writing, limiting their ability to drive real impact. Auquan’s Sustainability Agent autonomously manages workflows, from screening and monitoring companies to generating compliance-aligned reports and issuing near real-time alerts.
The AI tool eliminates manual obstacles, allowing sustainability teams to focus on creating meaningful, lasting value while boosting stakeholder engagement.
The Sustainability Agent
Auquan’s Sustainability Agent processes data on over 550,000 private and public companies, adding new private company insights within an hour. It analyses information from more than 2 million data sources in over 65 languages, drawing from corporate disclosures, regulatory filings, legal documents, media coverage, NGO reports, and industry research.
The AI aligns insights with major sustainability frameworks, including SFDR, CSRD, SASB, UNGC, SDGs, and modern slavery acts across multiple jurisdictions.
“Sustainability teams face two critical challenges: accessing and processing reliable data on private companies quickly enough to act and staying ahead of evolving ESG regulations and investor requirements. Auquan bridges these gaps with AI. Auquan’s Sustainability Agent turns what was days of manual work into insights and reports that arrive when we need them, enabling various teams to quickly assess risks, engage proactively with portfolio companies, and keep limited partners updated,” said the head of sustainability at a top 25 global private markets firm.
