Accreditation readiness
One evidence pack. Not one per standard.
Nobody keeps three evidence packs because they want to. They keep them because no standard was written with the others in mind. KinopiQ tracks your readiness for B Corp, ISO 14001, GRI and UK SRS in one place, so the policy that proves a fair-work requirement also proves the GRI disclosure — without uploading it twice.
Six standards
B Corp
V2.1
ISO 14001

GRI
2021
IFRS S1 & S2

TCFD
Superseded — superseded
Three of these changed in the last eighteen months. B Corp moved to new standards, ISO 14001 was reissued with a 2029 transition deadline, and the UK published its own reporting standards in February. What changes when.
Who this is for
- Sustainability and operations leads
- You answer to more than one standard and rebuild the same evidence pack for each. Keep one instead: the document that proves a B Corp requirement is there to link against your GRI disclosure too. How scoping works
- Consultants and advisers
- You run certifications for several client companies. Each gets its own workspace, with its own profile, evidence and score, and you move between them on one login. For consultants
How it works
Three steps to a number you can show someone
Describe your organisation
Worker count, revenue, sector, and where you are in the certification cycle. Takes a few minutes.
Work through what applies
Record an answer against each requirement, attach the documents that prove it, and give it an owner.
See where you stand
A readiness score, and a separate list of anything mandatory you have not met yet.
Evidence
One document can prove several things
An employee handbook is evidence for a fair work requirement, an inclusion requirement and a human rights requirement at once. KinopiQ links a document to every requirement it proves, so you upload it once and it counts everywhere it should.
Upload the handbook and KinopiQ reads it, then proposes every requirement across every standard it looks like evidence for. You confirm or reject each one. Knowing that a fair work clause also answers a GRI disclosure is the part that takes an afternoon and a consultant, and it is the part being done for you.
- Every requirement shows how much evidence stands behind it.
- Documents are held privately, and download links expire.
- Give an assessor a viewer seat: they read everything, change nothing.

Scoring
A score against what you owe, not the whole standard
B Lab’s standards set different requirements for different companies, so a score against the whole standard is meaningless if half of it was never written for a company your size. KinopiQ measures you against your own set, and keeps anything mandatory you have missed on a separate list.
Readiness · B Corp
- Met
- 61%
- In progress
- 18%
- Not started
- 21%
2 blocking
Two mandatory requirements are unmet. Counted separately — 61% with a mandatory gap is not 61% of the way to certified.
The same evidence gets rebuilt every year, out of the same shared drive, whenever a deadline comes round.
None of that work is difficult. It is just wasted. Why we built this.
FAQ
Frequently asked
What KinopiQ does, how the scoring works, and what it leaves to someone else.
- What is KinopiQ?
- KinopiQ is an accreditation readiness and tracking tool for impact-driven organisations. It is the one tool that tracks all the frameworks, so a smaller business does not need a consultant to work out which requirements apply to it, and a consultant running certifications across a portfolio of clients keeps one workspace per client instead of one spreadsheet per standard. It covers six: B Corp (B Lab Standards V2.1), ISO 14001:2026, GRI, IFRS S1 & S2, UK SRS S1 & S2, and TCFD. You tell it your worker count, revenue, sector and where you are in the certification cycle; it narrows each standard to the requirements a company of that shape has to answer for. You then record an answer against each one, attach the documents that prove it, and see a readiness score plus a list of anything still blocking you. It is built and published by AKdev Ltd in Scotland.
- Which standards does KinopiQ cover?
- Six. B Corp under B Lab Standards V2.1, published April 2025. ISO 14001:2026, published 15 April 2026. GRI, meaning the Universal Standards 2021 plus topic standards through 2025, including GRI 101 Biodiversity 2024 and GRI 102 Climate Change and 103 Energy 2025. IFRS S1 & S2, the ISSB baseline. UK SRS S1 & S2, published by DBT on 25 February 2026. And TCFD, marked superseded — the task force wound up in October 2023 and its recommendations now sit inside IFRS S2 — because reporting regimes still ask for it by name.
- How is KinopiQ different from B Lab’s own platform?
- B Lab’s B Impact platform is free, it works out which sub-requirements apply to you, and it is the system of record for B Corp certification. KinopiQ does not replace it and does not submit anything to it. The difference is that B Lab only ever cares about B Corp. If you are also answering to ISO 14001, GRI or UK SRS, you would otherwise keep three separate evidence packs and rebuild each one every year. KinopiQ keeps one: a document you attach for a B Corp requirement is there to link against a GRI disclosure too. If B Corp is the only standard you answer to, B Lab’s own tool may be all you need.
