One platform for all your ESG disclosures

Sustainability reporting requirements are multiplying. CSRD, California’s climate laws, ISSB, CDP—each framework has its own data requirements, timelines, and assurance standards. Watershed brings your sustainability data into a single source of truth so you can report to any framework without rebuilding from scratch. Measure once, repurpose across reports, and update metrics across all disclosures with one click.

Our in-house policy team tracks regulatory changes as they happen, and our pre-configured templates evolve with the requirements—so you’re never caught off guard.
