What do you need to decide?

Choose a starting point

Use a starter or write your own question. Fit and evidence requirements depend on your actual decision.

Add goals, budget, and evidence (optional)
What makes an option worth choosing?

Add what you know; unknowns are welcome. These criteria travel into your reviewed analysis request. The free fit check uses your question, project type, and timing only.

What can I safely enter?

Use a general, non-sensitive question. Do not enter names, deeds, customer records, personal data, credentials, confidential evidence, or controlled documents.

Your draft is kept in this tab’s session storage for up to 24 hours so you can review it before submitting a request. The fit check processes your question; it does not submit a service request.

Nothing you type is stored unless you choose to share it. We count which kinds of questions we can't answer yet.

The fit check suggests a method and evidence needs. A reviewed analysis requires an agreed scope, fee, and delivery date.

The Viridis value lens

From ecological evidence to business action.

Record ecological impacts alongside financial costs, identify who bears them, and keep uncertainty and decision authority visible. An unpriced or unknown impact is never silently treated as zero.

  1. 01

    Ecological condition

    What exists, what changed, and what remains at risk?

  2. 02

    Evidence strength

    Which sources are current, attributable, complete, or uncertain?

  3. 03

    Costs & who bears them

    Which costs fall on the project, ecosystems, other people, or future generations?

  4. 04

    Available options

    Which options respect declared limits, and what remains unknown?

  5. 05

    Action state

    Proceed, redesign, investigate, hold, or refuse.

  6. 06

    Decision receipt

    Evidence, assumptions, method, authority, and version stay attached.

How Viridis works

From question to action—without a black box.

Your team sees the method, evidence, limits, and receipt at every stage. Viridis never hides uncertainty behind a confident answer.

01

Frame your decision

Describe your options, ecological goals, economic constraints, and decision owner.

02

Check the method fit

A free check suggests a supported method and evidence needs. A reviewer confirms the scope.

03

Agree the work and fee

Review the comparison, data needs, deliverable, review criteria, price, and timing before work begins.

04

Compare, decide, and revisit

Use the reviewed analysis to compare options and uncertainty. Revisit the decision when new evidence changes the picture.

Published science
Formally checked constraints
Recomputable receipts

What your team receives

Move faster without lowering the evidence bar.

Request an agreed comparison of options, declared costs and constraints, evidence gaps, and uncertainty. Keep a reviewable record that your accountable decision owner can use and revisit.
