What is Makersite?
AI, data, apps for decision-making at scale
Unlock the power of AI and graph technology with Makersite. Collaborate with your team to develop compliant, safe, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly products at lightning speed – up to 50x faster than traditional methods.
Integrate multiple data sources to deliver analytics on compliance, EPDs, PCFs, scope 1,2 & 3, forecasts & should-costs
Makersite technology, big data, and breakthrough algorithms
With its ability to clean, connect and enrich cross-departmental data with third-party sources, it removes the dependency on sustainability, cost and risk experts.
The platform provides an array of product and supply chain-related information across sustainability, cost, and compliance metrics. Our AI algorithms automatically detect and connect product components and manufacturing processes to the right supply chain data from a harmonized and hyper-connected database, which solves one of the most time-consuming problems of mapping data to multiple sources at a granular level. The result is a detailed, extremely specific view into deep-tier supply chains, giving users a better understanding of environmental footprints, should-costing, and compliance risks at an unprecedented speed.
A view into Makersite’s software
See into the deep-tiers of your supply chain
Use activity-based modeling to simulate any product or service’s entire life cycle. Makersite’s recommendation engine will help you fill gaps and complete your models correctly and quickly.
Make better decisions based on multiple criteria
Support decision-making with clear and actionable insights considering multiple criteria (e.g., carbon, water, etc.) and perspectives (market segments, stakeholders, etc.) simultaneously.
Report on the things that matter
Export our visualizations and data for use in your reports, internal systems, offline calculations or presentations. Share interactive LCA data with your customers and stakeholders directly from Makersite or publish limited results, e.g., footprints for the public.

FAQs
What is Makersite’s AI & Data Apps platform?
Makersite’s platform uses purpose-built AI and domain-driven knowledge graph technology to organize and connect data, enabling smarter insights and automation to streamline product and supply chain management. By connecting internal data, such as bills of materials (BOMs), with over 150 verified external databases—including 36,000+ industrial processes, 600,000+ environmental impacts, and 100,000+ materials and their physical properties—it enables automated life cycle assessments (LCAs), Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), product compliance checks, should-costing, and supply chain risk analysis, delivering results up to fifty times faster than traditional manual methods.
How does the Makersite platform work?
Using activity-based modeling, Makersite automatically builds detailed digital twins of your products and their supply chains. Its AI engine standardizes Bill of Materials (BOM) data to ensure consistency, accuracy, and compatibility. The cleaned BOM is then enriched by mapping it against a database of over 150 external data sources to deliver insights on sustainability, cost, and product compliance. Rigid quality checks by Makersite’s domain experts ensure transparent and audit-proof results.
What types of insights can I get from Makersite?
Makersite enables you to generate automated life cycle assessments (LCAs), calculate Scope 1, 2, and 3 greenhouse gas emissions, run product compliance checks against regulations like REACH, RoHS, POP, or California Proposition 65, and perform cost modeling such as should-cost analysis. The platform also supports AI-enabled ecodesign by simulating alternative materials, suppliers, and production methods based on environmental impact, cost, and regulatory criteria to optimize product design and predict lifecycle impacts.
What systems does Makersite integrate with?
Makersite is an API-first platform that integrates with leading enterprise systems, including CAD tools, Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) platforms, and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software. Supported tools include Autodesk, Ansys, Siemens Teamcenter, and PTC Windchill. These integrations enable real-time data synchronization and interactive scenario modeling during design, procurement, or engineering workflows. A key advantage is that Makersite’s enriched data can be pushed directly into existing workflows within these systems.
How is my data protected on the Makersite platform?
Makersite is certified under ISO 27001 by Bureau Veritas and meets TISAX security standards. The platform is fully compliant with GDPR requirements, as verified by Cortina Consult. All data—including uploaded BOMs, models, and analytics—is securely stored, access-controlled, and managed to protect intellectual property and ensure confidentiality.
Who is the Makersite platform designed for?
Makersite is designed for product engineers, sustainability professionals, product compliance managers, procurement teams, and supply chain risk managers. Whether you’re optimizing a product for environmental impact, assessing supplier footprints, ensuring compliance with evolving regulations, or calculating product costs, the platform provides the cross-functional data and insights needed for informed, collaborative decision-making.
How can my organization get started with Makersite?
Begin by booking a personalized demo with a Makersite expert, who will walk you through the platform’s capabilities and help you run an initial assessment using your own CAD or BOM data. This trial allows you to experience how Makersite can accelerate your product compliance and sustainability goals in practice.
