NetNada Platform Walkthrough
This walkthrough covers the full NetNada platform — a single system for measuring your carbon emissions, managing climate disclosures, and keeping an audit trail behind every number. The video above runs through every section; the written summary below follows the same order, so you can jump straight to the part you need or read the tour without watching.
Home Screen and Netty, the AI Assistant
The home screen gathers your starting points: a setup checklist for first-time users, a snapshot of emissions measurement tasks in progress, your disclosure progress against frameworks such as AASB S2, and quick actions like uploading expense data, importing pre-calculated emissions (modelling), and inviting team members.
Netty, the floating chat icon, is NetNada's built-in AI assistant. Unlike a general chatbot, Netty is connected to your own account data — ask it about your Scope 2 emissions, the progress of a task, or the contents of a document you've uploaded, and it retrieves the answer from your actual records. You can also upload documents into a chat, and organisations with the right permissions can build a private knowledge base of industry-specific material for Netty to draw on.
Setting Up: Nodes, Boundaries, and Reporting Periods
Setup starts with nodes — a visual twin of your organisational structure covering businesses, regions, facilities, projects, and products. Adding a country and state to each facility matters, because electricity emission factors are applied based on the node's location. Large organisations can bulk-upload an existing location registry rather than creating nodes one by one.
Next comes the emissions boundary: a guided questionnaire that walks through Scope 1 (direct emissions like fuel combustion and refrigerants), Scope 2 (purchased electricity, heat, steam, or cooling), and the 15 upstream and downstream Scope 3 categories. For each category you answer whether it applies to all facilities, some, or none — and NetNada uses those answers to generate your measurement tasks. Finally, you set a reporting period (usually matching your financial year), which can be open, preparing, or closed — closing a period effectively locks your carbon inventory for that year.
Measuring: Tasks and Data Upload
The Task Manager turns your boundary and reporting period into a concrete to-do list. Each task covers one emissions category for one or more nodes, with an assignee, due date, and status (not started, in progress, ready for review, completed, or skipped). Tasks carry their own instructions, downloadable data templates, an FAQ, and a comment thread for collaboration — so the person collecting fleet fuel data knows exactly what's expected.
Uploading data uses the carbon data ingestion flow: drag and drop a spreadsheet, pick the right tab, and NetNada's AI maps your column names to its required fields — you review the mapping before anything is imported. Processing runs in the background, so you can keep working and get notified when calculations finish. Beyond spreadsheets, some categories accept invoices read automatically, built-in calculators handle inputs like waste and employee commuting, and the modelling feature imports pre-calculated emissions from earlier inventories or external consultants. Every upload lands in Files and Submissions, your central record of evidence.
Analysing: Audit Page, Dashboards, and Supply Chain
The Audit Page shows every transaction behind your footprint — the emission factor applied, the AI confidence score, and a link back to the source file. You can filter manually or ask the AI search in plain language, edit categories or emission factors (individually or in bulk), and export everything to Excel for your auditor.
Dashboards visualise the same data: the GHG Emissions Dashboard for totals by scope and top contributing categories, plus dedicated dashboards for electricity (location-based and market-based side by side), renewables, and waste and recycling. Dashboards can be shared externally as view-only links. The supply chain view breaks emissions down by supplier so you know where to focus engagement efforts.
Reporting: Targets, Report Builder, and Frameworks
Projections and targets let you model future emissions from your growth assumptions and set near-term and net-zero targets (for example, a 50% reduction by 2030). The Carbon Report Builder then turns your data into an editable report — full carbon report, executive summary, or a focused report — where figures are live variables: change one and it updates throughout the document, with version history tracking every edit. Export as a document, spreadsheet, or PDF.
Finally, the frameworks section manages disclosure beyond the carbon inventory. Gap Analysis compares an uploaded sustainability report against AASB S2 requirements and scores each one, while framework tracking breaks a disclosure standard into assignable requirements with evidence, verification status, and due dates.
