Our Mission
Sluicebox is on a mission to empower electronics manufacturers, suppliers, and brands with precise, real-time carbon intelligence, driving faster, scalable sustainability impact.
Built by a team of engineers and scientists from NASA, Amazon, and Uber, our team continues to grow through our dedication to revolutionizing supply chain decarbonization. We address the critical issue of poor and incomplete data with the world's first Generative LCA engine, enriching Bills of Materials to 95% accuracy.
Trusted by leading electronics brands including Western Digital, Vishay Intertechnology, and TTI, Inc., Sluicebox delivers ISO 14040/44-compliant carbon footprint data for over 99% of electronic components globally.
We've mapped 99% of 1 billion semiconductor and electronic components, creating a component graph that serves as a living map of the industry. Unlike traditional LCA tools that rely on averages, we trace every gram from silicon to screw, reducing months of work into minutes.
Sluicebox is independently certified by TÜV SÜD, PACT, and SOC 2, reflecting our commitment to transparency, accuracy, and security. We continue to grow, collaborating with industry leaders and ECIA to embed carbon intelligence early in product design and supply chains.
