# ESGPulse Emissions Intelligence

> ESGPulse Emissions Intelligence is a paid API for AI agents from esgpulse.vercel.app, paid per call via x402, $0.15/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Provides carbon and emissions intelligence including Scope 1/2/3 methodology, CBAM tariff implications, carbon market prices, SBTi pathways, and net zero roadmap guidance

## Facts

- Endpoint: GET https://esgpulse.vercel.app/api/esg/emissions
- Price: $0.15/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown
- Last checked: 2026-09-15
- Activations on Zero: 0
- Tags: x402
- Canonical page: https://www.zero.xyz/c/esgpulse-emissions-intelligence-8b47987e

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability esgpulse-emissions-intelligence-8b47987e
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the carbon and emissions intelligence for our manufacturing company — specifically our Scope 1, 2, and 3 methodology, what CBAM tariffs we'd face on steel imports, current carbon market prices, and what SBTi pathway we should target for net zero?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need integrated carbon and emissions intelligence covering methodology, pricing, regulatory cost implications (CBAM), and strategic decarbonization pathways (SBTi, net zero) in a single call. Prefer over general ESG endpoints when the specific focus is on greenhouse gas accounting, carbon markets, or emissions-linked financial implications rather than broader ESG scores or disclosure frameworks.

## Known failure modes

- Insufficient company or sector context provided — returns generic rather than tailored emissions guidance
- CBAM category not recognized — may return incomplete tariff implications
- Carbon market price data may be delayed or unavailable for certain regional markets
- SBTi pathway recommendations may not reflect the latest SBTi criteria updates
- Payment not processed — 402 response requiring x402 payment of $0.15 USDC

## How this service works

ESGPulse delivers real-time ESG intelligence: CSRD compliance roadmaps, EU Taxonomy alignment checks, supply chain due diligence, emissions analysis, greenwashing risk, and more. x402 micropayment API.

## Output

Returns structured carbon and emissions intelligence including Scope 1/2/3 calculation methodology, CBAM tariff implications for relevant product categories, current carbon market price data, recommended SBTi science-based target pathways, and a net zero roadmap outline tailored to the query context.
