Introduction: Why Carbon Footprint Analysis Matters
Sustainability is increasingly shaping product development across industries, making it essential to understand the environmental impact of every product. Each component, material, and assembly adds to the overall carbon footprint, but calculating it manually can be complicated and time-consuming. With Carbalyze, the process is simple: our built-in MCP server connects directly to your PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) software, allowing you to upload your Bill of Materials (BOM) and instantly calculate a detailed carbon score for your products.
