Accordion Router
Problem
Remote-first companies have a massive, invisible carbon footprint from cloud computing, video call data, and idle servers, but lack an automated way to measure and reduce these digital emissions without disrupting daily productivity.
Solution mechanic
A lightweight API that connects to a company's cloud and communication tools to monitor digital activity, acting like an accordion to compress and shift non-urgent workloads, data storage, and heavy processing to times and regions where the energy grid is powered by renewable energy, applying a tourniquet to wasteful idle processes while charging a micro-fee per gigabyte of data optimized.
Target audience
Sustainability managers or technical founders at small, remote-first software startups who need to quickly measure and reduce their Scope 3 digital emissions.
