Sustainability impact measurement is complicated, expensive and frustrating. leonardo’s science-based solution streamlines impact data collection and verification, so that you can confidently report your impact to stakeholders.
We love to see companies taking sustainability measurement seriously. At the same time we see how difficult and expensive it can be to know what to measure, how to measure and how to deal with all the data. leonardo does all of this heavy lifting so you can cost-efficiently verify and communicate impact to your stakeholders to attract investors, customers, talent and manage your important work.
As a spin-off from TU Munich we combine scientific standards with a great software product that drastically simplifies the complex task and will include AI-supported impact verification. We put in all of our experience from working with rural communities in Africa and delivering dozens of digital products in the software industry. Learn more about our B2B software solution and how leonardo disrupts the status quo of sustainability data.

While EVs typically have lower total cost of ownership and fewer maintenance requirements, longtime owners have found that EVs often outlive their warranties, which ends up costing drivers if they have issues with high voltage parts or the battery.
That’s why at Amber, we offer modern protection plans and repair services to give owners the confidence to own electric vehicles as they age. Unlike traditional extended warranty programs, Amber’s EV care program was designed with the top EV technicians and communities to be tailored for the EV ownership experience.
Amber is a seed-stage startup led by an experienced group of operators at the intersection of insurtech (Metromile; NYSE: LMND), mobility (Samsara; NYSE: IOT), and automotive (Hyundai), (Tesla; NASDAQ: TSLA).
