Every green claim your organisation makes carries legal risk. Speeki Engage is the platform that manages, reviews, and verifies every one of them — before they become a liability.
Speeki Engage® | ESG & Sustainability Assurance platform is the technology platform that powers every Speeki GreenDesk® engagement — receiving your claims, building your claims register, connecting Nicole® AI to your product data and applicable standards, and facilitating the expert human review that turns a submission into a verified, defensible environmental claim.

Claims assurance with Ai powered technology.
Environmental claims on product packaging, marketing materials, websites, and investor communications have moved from reputational risk to legal liability. The EU Green Claims Directive, the UK CMA Green Claims Code, the FTC Green Guides, and equivalent frameworks across Australia, Singapore, and Asia-Pacific are creating an environment where an unsubstantiated sustainability claim is not just embarrassing — it is a regulatory exposure with real financial and legal consequences.
Speeki GreenDesk® is the independent green claims governance and verification service designed to assess, document, and verify environmental claims against ISO 14021 and applicable global regulations.
Speeki Engage® | ESG & Sustainability Assurance platform makes the entire process structured, auditable, fast, and scalable — with Nicole® AI trained specifically on your products, your claims, and your applicable standards doing the first-pass review, and a Speeki expert always in the loop before any determination is made.
What is Speeki GreenDesk®?
Speeki GreenDesk® is Speeki's independent green claims governance and verification service — providing pre-publication claim review, a live claims register, and formal independent verification of environmental claims against ISO 14021 and applicable global green claims regulation. It is not a consulting service.
Speeki GreenDesk® does not advise organisations on what to claim. It assesses whether claims as drafted meet the standards and regulations that apply, and issues formal verification opinions that carry the weight of accredited independence in regulatory, procurement, and investor contexts.
What makes Speeki GreenDesk® operationally unique is the platform through which every engagement runs. Every claim submitted for review, every supporting document uploaded, every Nicole® AI first-pass analysis, every expert determination, and every verified outcome is managed inside Speeki Engage — creating a structured, permanent, auditable claims governance record that organisations can rely on when regulators, customers, or investors ask how their environmental claims were substantiated.
This page covers the technology side of GreenDesk — how the Speeki Engage® | ESG & Sustainability Assurance platform powers the engagement workflow, manages the claims database, deploys Nicole® AI, and maintains the human expert review layer that ensures every determination is made by a qualified practitioner.

Why Green Claims Need a Platform — Not Just a Process
The volume and complexity of environmental claims that a typical organisation makes is larger than most compliance teams realise. Claims appear on packaging, product datasheets, websites, tender responses, investor presentations, sustainability reports, advertising campaigns, and social media. Each claim may be subject to multiple overlapping regulatory frameworks depending on the jurisdiction where it is made. Each claim requires substantiation evidence that must be maintained, reviewed, and updated as product formulations, supply chains, and regulatory requirements change.
Managing that volume and complexity through email, spreadsheets, and bilateral document exchange — the way most organisations currently handle it is not a governance process. It is a risk accumulation exercise. When a regulator asks how a claim was substantiated, or when a competitor challenges a claim in a comparative advertising dispute, or when a customer's procurement team asks for verification evidence, the absence of a structured, documented claims governance process is immediately apparent — and immediately problematic.
The Speeki Engage® | ESG & Sustainability Assurance platform transforms green claims governance from an ad hoc activity into a structured, platform-managed, continuously auditable process. Every claim lives in the platform. Every piece of substantiation evidence is attached to it. Every review Nicole® performs is logged. Every expert determination is documented. And the complete claims register covering every claim the organisation has submitted, every outcome, and every verification status is permanently maintained and retrievable at any point.
What platform-managed claims governance solves that analog processes cannot:
Claims scattered across packaging approvals, marketing reviews, and legal sign-offs with no central register — Engage centralises and tracks every one
Substantiation evidence held in different systems, owned by different teams, with no link to the claims it supports — Engage structures and links it
No systematic review against ISO 14021 and applicable regulations before claims go public — Nicole® AI performs that review at submission
Expert review capacity that cannot scale to the volume and frequency of claims modern organisations make — Nicole® AI scales it
No audit trail of how claims were reviewed and determined — Engage creates and maintains it permanently
Claims that were accurate when made but have since become outdated or non-compliant — Engage's claims register flags them
How Speeki Engage® | ESG & Sustainability Assurance platform Powers every Speeki GreenDesk engagement®.
Claim Submission and Intake
Every green claims review begins with a structured submission inside Speeki Engage.
The client submits the claim as drafted — the exact words, images, symbols, or statements they intend to make — together with the product or service context, the jurisdiction or market where the claim will be made, and the applicable standards or frameworks they believe the claim meets.
The structured intake process ensures that every submission contains the information Nicole® and the reviewing expert need to conduct a complete, standards-referenced assessment from the outset — eliminating the back-and-forth that unstructured submission processes generate.
Data Ingestion and Connection to Source Systems
Sustainability data is never held in one place. The Speeki Engage® | ESG & Sustainability Assurance platform connects to your data lakes, internal reporting systems, ERP platforms, environmental monitoring tools, HR systems, and other data sources through APIs and direct integrations pulling source data into the platform and linking it to the disclosures it supports.
Where direct integration is not available, structured data upload workflows ensure that every metric disclosed in your sustainability report is traceable to the underlying data that produced it.
The result is an evidence architecture that your Speeki assurance team can interrogate at the data level — not just at the disclosure level.
Document and Evidence Upload
Every piece of substantiation evidence relevant to the claim is uploaded and linked within the Speeki Engage® | ESG & Sustainability Assurance platform at the point of submission or requested and tracked through the platform if additional evidence is needed.
Life cycle assessment reports, test results, certification documents, supply chain data, calculation methodologies, third-party verifications, and product specifications are organised, tagged to the specific claim they support, and maintained in a permanent evidence record.
When a claim is resubmitted in a future review cycle, the previous evidence base is already in the platform — reducing effort and providing continuity across review cycles.
Nicole® AI — Trained on Your Products, Your Claims, Your Standards
Nicole® is not a generic AI tool applied to every Speeki GreenDesk engagement in the same way.
For each Speeki GreenDesk client, Nicole® is trained on the client's specific product portfolio, product data, claims history, applicable standards, and relevant regulatory frameworks so that when a claim is submitted, Nicole® is assessing it against a knowledge base that is specific to that organisation, that product category, and those markets.
Nicole® performs the first-pass review of every claim submitted, cross-referencing the claim as drafted against ISO 14021 requirements, applicable regulatory frameworks, and the substantiation evidence uploaded identifying issues, gaps, and potential non-compliances for expert review.
Every step of Nicole®'s analysis is logged, documented, and visible to the reviewing expert, creating a transparent, auditable record of what was assessed and why.
Human Expert Review — Always in the Loop
Nicole® AI performs the first-pass review.
A Speeki expert makes every determination. This is not a design compromise, it is a deliberate governance principle embedded in every Speeki GreenDesk engagement.
Environmental claims assessment requires regulatory judgment, contextual interpretation, and professional accountability that AI alone cannot and should not provide.
Every claim that Nicole® reviews is assessed by a qualified Speeki practitioner before any outcome is communicated to the client. The expert reviews Nicole®'s analysis, applies professional judgment to the regulatory and standards context, considers the substantiation evidence, and makes the formal determination — approving the claim, recommending amendments, or declining verification with documented reasoning.
The human expert is not a sign-off step at the end of an automated process. They are an active participant in every determination, with full visibility of Nicole®'s analysis and full authority over the outcome.
Claims Register and Database Management
Every claim submitted through Speeki Engage® | ESG & Sustainability Assurance platform, whether approved, amended, declined, or pending is maintained in a structured claims register inside the platform.
The register records the claim as submitted, the claim as approved, the applicable standards and regulations assessed against, the substantiation evidence attached, the Nicole® analysis performed, the expert determination made, the date of determination, the verification status, and the next scheduled review date.
Over time, this register becomes a comprehensive, permanently auditable record of the organisation's entire green claims governance history the documented proof that every environmental claim the organisation makes has been reviewed, assessed, and determined by an independent accredited expert against the applicable standards.
Ongoing Monitoring and Review Cycle Management
Environmental claims do not have indefinite shelf lives.
Product formulations change. Supply chains change. Regulatory requirements change. A claim that was accurate and compliant when verified may become outdated or non-compliant as those factors evolve.
Speeki Engage® | ESG & Sustainability Assurance platform tracks the review status of every claim in the register and flags claims approaching their review date, claims where underlying product data has changed, and claims where regulatory developments may affect compliance status, prompting resubmission and review before an outdated claim remains in market longer than it should.
Audit Readiness and the Claims Governance Advantage
The regulatory environment for environmental claims is moving fast. The EU Green Claims Directive requires mandatory third-party pre-publication verification. The UK CMA is actively enforcing against unsubstantiated claims. Regulators in Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Canada are intensifying scrutiny of sustainability marketing. In this environment, the question is not whether your green claims will be examined — it is whether you will be ready when they are.
Organisations that manage their green claims governance through Speeki Engage® | ESG & Sustainability Assurance platform are ready by design. Every claim in the register has a documented review history. Every substantiation evidence package is organised and retrievable. Every Nicole® analysis is logged. Every expert determination is recorded with full reasoning. When a regulator asks how a claim was substantiated, or when a customer's procurement team requests verification evidence, or when a competitor raises a challenge, the complete claims governance record is already there — structured, documented, and immediately accessible.
For organisations subject to the EU Green Claims Directive's mandatory pre-publication verification requirement, theSpeeki Engage® | ESG & Sustainability Assurance platform powered Speeki GreenDesk process is designed specifically to satisfy that obligation — providing the accredited, independent, documented third-party verification that the Directive requires as a legal prerequisite before claims can be published.
Most organisations don't have a greenwashing problem. They have a green claims governance problem. Speeki Engage is the platform that solves it — structurally, continuously, and with a human expert behind every determination.
Embedded in the Speeki Engage® | ESG & Sustainability Assurance platform is Nicole Ai, your support team to help you assure green claims.
Nicole Ai is trained by Speeki on the product claims standards and your company’s history and preferences on claims.
While that training is specific to your company, it does not include consulting directly on your green claims preferences or approaches. We are simly training our models and ourselves in order to provide our independent assurance service.
Linking Compliance and Assurance.
Using Speeki Engage® | ESG & Sustainability Assurance platform to manage compliance with green claims standards and assurance of your claims stops being a project you prepare for and becomes a standard you simply live by documented, assured, and continuously improving.
