A CBAM toolkit, built by the people who do CBAM
EcoBorder is made by EcoSapienz, an ESG and CBAM consultancy. It exists to make the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism easier to reason about, backed by the official EU data and by specialists who file it for a living.
CBAM introduced a wall of new concepts for exporters - CN codes, embedded emissions, default factors, free-allocation phase-outs, quarterly declarations. Getting oriented shouldn't require booking a consultation on day one.
So EcoSapienz built EcoBorder the other way around: the useful parts are the product. Sign up and the calculator, CN code checker, readiness check and communication builder are yours to run, with your projects, suppliers and filings saved in one workspace. When a case needs a specialist, our team steps in, that is the Managed tier.
It's an estimation and planning toolkit - a fast way to get oriented, sanity-check a number, or prepare a draft. It is not a substitute for the official EU CBAM regulation, and the figures it produces are indicative until filed with verified data.
Where the numbers come from
Built on the official EU data
Every default and benchmark is a versioned, cited dataset, not a black box, so you can trace any figure back to its source.
Definitive-regime country defaults
IR (EU) 2025/2621, country-specific default values for 120 countries, with the regulation's mark-ups applied.
CBAM benchmarks (BMg)
IR (EU) 2025/2620, the full route-aware benchmark table used in the free-allocation adjustment.
Official CN codes
All 749 CBAM CN codes from the official EU Communication template.
Transitional default values
The EU Commission's transitional-period default values (published 22 December 2023).
What's inside
The tools
Approvals
Your CBAM agents watch your channels, collect the bills and buyer requests, compute your emissions, and draft the buyer communication. You approve what leaves.
Emissions Calculator
Start here. Turn fuel use, process chemistry and electricity into embedded emissions and a tCO₂/tonne intensity.
Tax Calculator
Carry your intensity in and model CBAM liability across multiple product lines with origin-price and free-allocation credits. Export the result.
CN Code Checker
Search the CBAM-covered CN codes, see default emission factors and an instant cost estimate per code.
Readiness Check
Score your CBAM readiness in 2 minutes and get a concrete, prioritised action list
Communication Builder
Fill the official EU installation SEE communication - installation, processes, precursors and per-product emissions - and export it in the official template structure (Excel).
AI Data Import
Upload a photo, PDF or Excel/CSV of a bill or register - AI extracts your activity data, normalises units and pre-fills the Emissions Calculator.
Verification Pack
Pre-check your emissions data and assemble a verifier-ready evidence pack before the accredited third-party audit.
Compliance Tracker
See the CBAM key dates and keep a register of your products, periods, liability and status - so nothing slips.
Export Docs & RoDTEP
Catch the eBRC-vs-shipping-bill mismatch that stalls RoDTEP claims, estimate RoDTEP, and track your export documents.
Cost Forecast
See how your CBAM cost multiplies from 2026 to 2034 as free allocation is phased out, across price scenarios - and which abatement levers save most.
A note on accuracy
Default emission factors approximate the EU transitional default values and are provided for estimation. For real filings, use your own verified, installation-specific data and confirm obligations against official EU guidance. Questions or feedback? hello@ecoborder.app.
