Code Gaia vs. leadity

What is Code Gaia?

Code Gaia was founded with a clear mission: to make sustainability reporting accessible and practical for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Our founding team understands firsthand how complex ESG and EHS processes can be without clear structure and the right support. That’s why we’ve built a platform that guides companies step by step—starting with their first carbon footprint, through meeting regulatory requirements, all the way to embedding sustainability strategically into their core business. But we offer more than just technology. Our committed customer team is here to support you—because real transformation requires both smart tools and people who think ahead with you.

How does Code Gaia work?

Code Gaia enables companies to carry out structured and efficient carbon accounting across Scopes 1, 2, and 3 – tailored to corporate and site-specific structures. With a wide range of integration options and the use of artificial intelligence, Code Gaia ensures time-saving and scalable data collection.
The platform then supports the creation of compliant sustainability statements according to international standards such as VSME, ESRS, or GRI – including delegation features, deadline management, and evidence documentation, all without requiring prior knowledge.
In addition, Code Gaia offers digital solutions for management systems such as ISO 14001 or EMAS, helping companies become more resilient and future-proof.
With a supporting software module, personal support, and introductory workshops, Code Gaia assists in conducting a thorough materiality analysis to identify company-specific risks and opportunities step by step.
Based on this, Code Gaia supports businesses in the development and implementation of their sustainability strategy – with the goal of fulfilling all regulatory requirements from customers, banks, or other stakeholders while generating real added value.
Moreover, Code Gaia’s supply chain module helps identify and minimise potential risks at an early stage – through integrated risk management, customised questionnaires, improved forecasting, and data-driven decision-making.
