New supply chain solution gives sustainability and sourcing teams the foresight to act—before greater climate crises, compliance requirements, and operational risks strike.
Worldly, the leading sustainability data and analytics platform for consumer goods, today announced Worldly Axion, a Worldly-built generative AI solution for climate and social risks across global supply chains. Worldly Axion uses Worldly’s primary dataset from tens of thousands of facility assessments to deliver actionable insights that help brands and suppliers anticipate risks, meet regulatory timelines, and prioritize interventions.
As climate change, geopolitical instability, and mounting regulatory requirements increasingly disrupt operations, consumer goods companies are urgently seeking to quantify and frame risk while wrangling data more easily and advancing their sustainability goals. Worldly Axion meets this need by combining facility-level primary data with predictive, contextual data about the world. This blend gives companies unique insights into where to invest in sustainability initiatives and where to focus efforts to manage risk.
Worldly Axion brings together dozens of risk datasets—including heat, water, climate, and transition risks—to give companies a clear view of where their operations and suppliers are most exposed. Its built-in AI system helps teams interpret the data, from planning GHG reductions to guiding decisions like coal phase-out strategies for factories, electricity pricing, and next steps.
“Traditional sustainability tools look backward. Worldly Axion looks forward,” said Scott Raskin, CEO of Worldly. “We built Worldly Axion to help companies not just understand their supply chain impacts, but anticipate where those impacts—and opportunities—are accelerating. From physical climate risk to emissions exposure to regulatory shifts, Worldly Axion helps teams act decisively, strategically, and with confidence.”
Worldly Axion was developed in strategic partnership with Earthena, a company pioneering decision intelligence for resilience. The partnership augments Worldly’s supply chain expertise with Earthena’s expertise in modeling and reasoning across climate, water, energy, policy, and other dimensions—to surface novel and actionable insights.
Accelerate Climate Action, Compliance, and Sourcing Strategy
Worldly Axion helps consumer goods businesses use their resources more efficiently and make their sustainability initiatives more effective. It is built for sustainability, sourcing, operations, and compliance leaders seeking dynamic, actionable insights—not static reports.
With Axion, companies can:
- Spot suppliers at risk of water shortages, extreme heat, or slow renewable energy adoption
- Protect vulnerable workers in factories with poor or no climate controls
- Predict emissions and financial risks from carbon pricing, regulations, and shifting energy sources
- Highlight the best investments where decarbonization and resilience deliver the biggest impact
- Add predictive risk insights into supplier scorecards to guide faster, smarter sourcing decisions
- Speed up compliance with new disclosure rules like IFRS S2, California SB 261, and the EU’s CSRD
At its core, Worldly Axion helps sustainability teams focus their strategies and investments where they’ll deliver the greatest returns. By turning complex facility-level data into clear, actionable priorities—enriched with broader regional context and AI-driven guidance—companies can drive measurable progress, justify spending to reduce environmental impacts, and make smarter, faster decisions.
