Building Better AI with Better Data
Since artificial intelligence first became mainstream in 2023, sustainability and risk management professionals have embraced the technology to navigate complex regulations, mitigate risks and protect their supply chains and employees. But along the way, one thing has become clear: AI is only as good as the data behind it.
When data is inaccurate, inconsistent or unverified, AI can do more harm than good. That might be why a recent Accenture report found that 75% of executives believe high-quality data is critical to realizing AI’s full potential.
At Sphera, we’ve always understood that trusted, auditable and actionable data is essential for helping companies make smarter decisions around sustainability, safety and supply chain management. When you’re a Chief Sustainability Officer reporting to your leadership team, or a CEO giving a TED talk, there’s no room for inaccuracy.
And that’s what inspired us to create Sphera AI.
Sphera AI draws from our Sphera data lake, which contains three decades of carefully curated, industry-verified data. We store data from over 8,500 customers securely in our SpheraCloud platform, then activate it with AI to deliver insights that are accurate, contextual and immediately actionable. We want customers to be confident their data is trustworthy and defensible.
Customers are already seeing the impact using our Supply Chain Risk Management platform. With complete supply chain visibility, customers can track products from raw materials to recycling, monitoring and managing risks at every stage.
We are also using AI to accelerate delivery of essential Chemical Management tools to the federal government, supporting compliance with key federal directives.
We’re just getting started. Companies need end-to-end visibility and trustworthy automation. That’s why we’re building Sphera AI to provide comprehensive analytics and reporting that span every level of the enterprise, from supply chains and operations to products and corporate reporting.
With Neuberger Berman as an investment partner, we have more resources to accelerate AI-driven innovation across our portfolio. This partnership strengthens our ability to advance AI solutions and better serve our customers and partners around the world.
We believe AI should do more than simply process data. It should enable progress, helping customers shape a safer, more sustainable and more productive future for all.
