ESG assurance
audit platform for auditors.

ESG reporting platforms are sold to the company disclosing its own sustainability data.

Also on board: BRSR assurance for entities with an India listing.

Assurance Provider Tool, Not a Disclosure Platform

Built for the assurance engagement, not the disclosure.

ESG reporting platforms help a company collect and disclose its own sustainability data. GRCfy Maestro is what the independent assurance provider uses to verify that data holds up — evidence review, findings, and sign-off, across every client mandate.

Coverage

ESG, and BRSR when you need it.

ESG and BRSR are distinct control libraries on GRCfy Maestro — run ESG independently for international sustainability assurance, or add BRSR for a client that also needs SEBI BRSR Core sign-off on its India listing.

FAQ

Common questions

Is this an ESG reporting tool?

No — reporting platforms are sold to the company disclosing its own data. GRCfy Maestro is the audit management platform for the independent provider assuring that disclosure.

Which ESG frameworks are supported?

ESG (81 controls across GRI, TCFD, SA8000, and SMETA/Sedex) is a standalone control library, cross-mapped with SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR, and DPDP evidence.

Do you also support BRSR for India-listed entities?

Yes — BRSR (62 controls mapped to SEBI's BRSR Circular) is a separate control library for entities with India listings that need SEBI BRSR Core third-party assurance, run independently or alongside the ESG engagement.
