How We Work
Complete step-by-step process for conducting AI-powered impact assessments of startup investments using Carbbin's platform.
1
Input your data
You'll provide minimal input explaining the case under study. Unlike traditional impact assessment methods that require extensive data collection, Carbbin needs only basic startup information to begin comprehensive analysis.
Real Assessment Example
Company: GreenTech Solar Solutions
Description: Developing innovative solar panel recycling technology that recovers 98% of materials, reducing e-waste and enabling circular economy in the solar industry.
