Overview

What it does

In development

LCAgo coordinates data, models, methods, and review across established LCA software in one collaborative workspace.

LCAgo helps researchers and sustainability teams build, assess, and interpret life cycle assessments with AI assistance and expert-guided workflows. It orchestrates openLCA, Brightway2, Python workflows, and internal data while keeping evidence, assumptions, methods, and results inspectable.LCAgo structures that work as a versioned and auditable workflows. Automate with AI, human-in-the-loop collaboration, and expert review.

  • Goal and scope workflows
  • Inventory and data quality management
  • Impact assessment across multiple methods
  • Scenario and sensitivity analysis
  • Configurable agent workflows
  • Collaborative expert review

Features

Capabilities

Core functions in the current product direction.

Goal & scope workflow

Define functional units, system boundaries, and cut-off rules through a guided structure that stays attached to the study.

Inventory management

Import, map, and validate inventory data with built-in quality checks and full version history.

Impact assessment

Run assessments across multiple LCIA methods and review results through interactive visualisations.

Configurable LCA agents

Configure agents to prepare data, run checks, execute approved calculations, and document repeatable work.

Scenario analysis

Compare alternatives and assumption sets side by side to evaluate design and sourcing decisions.

Reporting & collaboration

Generate reports that carry their assumptions with them, and share workspaces across a team.

Integrations

Orchestrates established LCA tools

LCAgo orchestrates openLCA, Brightway2, Python, and internal data through a configurable agentic workspace. The scientific tools, methods, and calculation records remain visible and reviewable.

How it works

How LCAgo works

A configurable, human-reviewed workflow from connected data to traceable results.

  1. 01

    Connect data

    Bring in inventory data from databases, files, APIs, and internal systems.

  2. 02

    Configure the study

    Define goal, scope, functional unit, methods, and review gates.

  3. 03

    Orchestrate tools

    Run approved work across openLCA, Brightway2, Python, and connected services.

  4. 04

    Expert review

    Review data quality, methods, uncertainty, hotspots, and agent actions.

  5. 05

    Publish evidence

    Produce traceable results, scenarios, and reports for decision-makers.

Status

Development status

In developmentProduct development is in progress.

LCAgo combines configurable agents with human-in-the-loop collaboration and expert review. Practitioners define methods, approve actions, review assumptions, and own interpretation; agents assist with data preparation, checks, calculations, and documentation.
