Platform Mechanics

How it works.

The IntelliMat platform transforms regulatory complexity into audit-defensible intelligence through a three-layer architecture and a single regulated intake process.

The Three Layers

Intelligence. Orchestration. Environment.

Each layer does what it does best. No layer operates alone. Every output carries the signature of all three.

01 · Intelligence
Anthropic Claude

Specialised agents reason across ESG frameworks, ISO standards, regulatory instruments, and sector-specific criteria. Every output is citation-traceable and confidence-scored. Claude does not produce generic summaries — it produces structured regulatory findings anchored to specific instruments.

02 · Orchestration
IBM watsonx Orchestrate

The conductor. Validates agent outputs, coordinates multi-agent workflows, and enforces enterprise-grade quality assurance. Orchestrate ensures that when multiple agents contribute to a single output, their findings are consistent, governed, and traceable end-to-end.

03 · Environment
IBM Envizi

Carbon accounting, emissions factors, supply chain templates, and regulatory baselines — the authoritative data environment for ISSB S1 & S2 and GRI assurance-ready outputs. Envizi makes GHG disclosures defensible, not estimated.


The Flow

SDART → IntelliMat → SAIGE

Single Assessment, Multiple Frameworks. One intake process produces disclosure-ready outputs for every applicable framework.

SDART
Data ingestion and structuring
SDART (Sustainability Data and Reporting Tool) collects, validates, and structures client data — financial, operational, environmental, and governance. It applies the integrity dimensions (completeness, accuracy, validity, currency) before any data enters the assessment engine. No unvalidated data passes through.
IntelliMat
Assessment, scoring, and framework mapping
IntelliMat applies the structured data against the regulatory catchment — 18 sector profiles, 14+ frameworks, section-level criteria. Agents produce scored, cited, traceable findings mapped to every applicable framework simultaneously. One intake. Full coverage.
SAIGE
AI governance and reasoning
SAIGE coordinates agents, manages citations, scores confidence, and appends audit trails. Every output that leaves IntelliMat has passed through SAIGE's governance layer: provenance documented, confidence declared, derivation path recorded.
Output
Disclosure-ready, assurance-friendly reports
A structured, auditable report mapped to every required framework: ISSB, GRI, TNFD, King IV, JSE, GISTM, ISO families, CDP, CSRD. Every claim traces to its regulatory source. Every number shows its working. Defensible in front of an auditor, a board, or a regulator.

The Agent Register

Specialised by domain. Governed end-to-end.

Each agent is purpose-built for a specific compliance domain. Four are live in production today; capability continues to expand against the regulatory catchment.
