Is there a free trial?

Yes. SMEs and businesses can start a 14-day free trial with full access. No credit card required. Consultants and partners can book a demo to see the platform.

Can I upgrade or change plans?

You can upgrade anytime — we prorate the difference for the rest of your term. Downgrades are not available mid-contract: each plan unlocks its full value from day one, and contracts are set for that term. Near renewal, speak to us if you need a different plan.

What happens at the end of my 14-day trial?

Your data stays accessible in a read-only account. Choose a plan when you are ready, or export your data and walk away. No automatic billing — we do not ask for a card to start the trial.

How does quoting work?

Card prices are “From” starting points — exact annual price depends on organisation size. Use Get a quote (or start a free trial) and we will email your figure. There is no public price calculator.

The DEFRA question

Why pay for CYF when DEFRA factors are free?

DEFRA is one of our emission factor sources — not the only one. Our methodology team layers DEFRA's annually-updated UK factors with proprietary research, industry-specific datasets, and bespoke factors for unusual inputs.

Benchmark, not just a number
DEFRA gives you a tonne-of-CO2e figure. CYF tells you whether that puts you in the top or bottom quartile of your sector — across 700+ businesses.
Audit-ready output, not a spreadsheet
CYF reports are accepted by customer procurement teams on first review. A spreadsheet attached to a questionnaire isn't.
5-year tracking, not a one-off calculation
DEFRA calculations get redone from scratch each year. CYF tracks year-on-year progress so you can show a trajectory.
Automation, not manual entry
CYF ingests invoices from Xero, Sage, or QuickBooks and matches them to emission categories automatically.

The CYF advantage

You don't just measure — you benchmark

Every plan includes comparison against 700+ organisations across 12 UK sectors. Knowing your number is one thing — knowing how it compares to your peers is what makes it actionable.
