Built for operators.

Solo operators, freelance analysts, and small consulting shops use WhatsMyESG as the data layer behind their own client-facing ESG work. They subscribe once, generate reports under their seat, and deliver the analysis to their own clients as part of a billed scope. The branded PDF is part of the deliverable — the operator’s proof of source, refreshable on demand, with citations the client can independently verify.

The economics are direct. One $99/mo Founding 15 seat replaces a per-report data spend that would otherwise run from the low hundreds per query at retail data vendors into the mid-five figures per year for an enterprise ESG platform contract. WME is the data layer; the operator’s judgment, framework mapping, and client relationship is the value sold on top.

1. Six operator profiles

The profiles below describe how WME slots into existing professional-services workflows. The dollar figures are illustrative ranges anchored to common professional-services billing patterns; your own pricing, volume, and capture rate will differ.

1.1 Commercial real-estate brokers

Adds an ESG due-diligence layer to deal packages. Useful on Class-B office, light-industrial, and mixed-use sales where the buyer pool now expects an environmental and governance read alongside the rent roll.

How they use it.

• Generate a per-asset ESG scorecard for the buyer marketing package.
• Refresh during due-diligence to capture any new EPA enforcement or disclosure data.
• Cite WhatsMyESG as the data source in the offering memorandum and disclose to the buyer.

Sample math. 10 deals/mo at a $300/deal embedded ESG line-item = $3,000/mo. Sub cost: $99/mo. Margin: 96.7%.

1.2 M&A advisory shops

Layers a pre-acquisition ESG and environmental risk read onto target screening, before legal due-diligence kicks in. Sits next to the financial QofE rather than replacing the eventual Phase I.

How they use it.

• Screen target portfolios in batch and flag the targets with material environmental enforcement history.
• Hand the buyside team a one-page WME report per target as part of the data room.
• Use it to scope which targets warrant a full Phase I and which do not.

Sample math. 3 engagements/mo at a $1,500 ESG-screen line-item = $4,500/mo. Sub cost: $99/mo. Margin: 97.8%.

1.3 EHS consultants

Layers an ESG context page onto Phase I deliverables, compliance audits, and EHS management-system scopes. The WME report does not replace Phase I work; it sits as an appendix the client expected and the firm did not previously produce.

How they use it.

• Attach a site-level ESG snapshot to Phase I and Phase II deliverables.
• Use it as a pre-engagement scoping tool when the client asks whether a site has ESG exposure.
• Maintain a refreshable record per client site so the next year’s audit picks up the change.

Sample math. 15 sites/mo at $500/site ESG addendum = $7,500/mo. Sub cost: $99/mo. Margin: 98.7%.

1.4 Insurance underwriters (commercial property)

Adds an environmental risk addendum to commercial-property quote packets. Underwriters do not use the WME score to make the pricing decision in isolation; they use it to flag which submissions deserve a deeper underwriter look.

How they use it.

• Run a WME report per submission and attach it to the quote workflow.
• Flag submissions where EPA enforcement history materially diverges from the broker submission.
• Triage which applications warrant a property-inspection visit.

Sample math. 75 quotes/mo at $100/quote internal cost-recovery line-item = $7,500/mo. Sub cost: $99/mo. Margin: 98.7%.

1.5 Sustainability analysts (solo and freelance)

Operates as a fractional ESG analyst for SMB clients without an internal sustainability team. Uses WME as the data layer; layers their own narrative, framework mapping, and recommendations on top.

How they use it.

• Run a monthly refresh per client and ship a tailored memo on the delta.
• Cite WhatsMyESG as the data source; sign the memo as the analyst.
• Bundle into a fractional ESG retainer the SMB could not otherwise afford.

Sample math. 8 clients on retainer at $750/mo = $6,000/mo. Sub cost: $99/mo. Margin: 98.4%.

1.6 Due-diligence shops

Adds an ESG layer onto commercial transaction due-diligence scopes — environmental, social, and governance signals pulled in alongside title, lien, and entity research.

How they use it.

• Run a WME report on every target and counterparty in the diligence stack.
• Flag governance and litigation signals to the lead diligence partner.
• Pass the branded report into the data room as a discrete deliverable.

Sample math. 8 engagements/mo at $750/engagement ESG component = $6,000/mo. Sub cost: $99/mo. Margin: 98.4%.

2. What is allowed

WME is sold as a single-seat license for one operator on one account. Within that license, the following uses are explicitly permitted and are the use cases the product is designed to serve. Full clauses are in Terms § 6 (Operator and Reseller Use); the fair-use thresholds referenced below live in Terms § 3 (Acceptable Use).

• You can share branded WhatsMyESG reports with your clients as supporting evidence inside a deliverable you sign and deliver.
• You canwrite your own analysis, memos, or recommendations citing WhatsMyESG as the data source. Recommended attribution: “WhatsMyESG, https://whatsmyesg.com/company/<slug>, last_updated <ISO date>.”
• You can run reports under your account on behalf of paying clients, subject to the fair-use thresholds in Terms § 3 (50/day, 500/billing-period, 5/min, 3 concurrent).

The following are not permitted:

• You cannotremove the WhatsMyESG footer, brand marks, or methodology citations from generated PDFs. The branded PDF is the operator’s proof of source; stripping the brand breaks both the trust mechanic and the license.
• You cannot resell raw API or backend access, or use the Service to power a competing ESG-data product.
• You cannotmisrepresent affiliation, certification, or endorsement — WhatsMyESG is the data layer, not a professional sign-off, audit, or attestation deliverable.

Full clauses are in Terms § 6 (Operator and Reseller Use). Methodology, data sources, and the frameworks WME references are documented in Methodology.

3. Fair-use thresholds

The published fair-use thresholds (50 reports/day, 500 per billing period, 5 per minute, 3 concurrent) are designed to cover every operator profile on this page at typical volumes with significant headroom. Operators sustaining volumes above those thresholds are invited to contact us at info@whatsmyesg.com to discuss a forthcoming Operator tier; no further cap is enforced at launch.
