Livvie, a Netherlands-based food technology company, has released Livvie Business, a web-based application that allows organizations to quantify the impact of plant-forward food programs across 22 metrics. Users can input data such as meal counts and weight served to generate estimates on environmental, animal welfare, and human health metrics, including water footprint, land use, deforestation, greenhouse gas emissions, and more.

The tool addresses a gap in reporting on food-related sustainability efforts, as carbon emissions have traditionally been the primary metric used, leaving other benefits unquantified. Livvie Business aims to make it easier for organizations to measure the outcomes that stakeholders care about and support initiatives that encourage dietary change, such as expanding vegan menu options or running vegan challenge programs. The application, available globally with free and paid tiers, is designed to support a range of plant-forward initiatives and help organizations make informed decisions and communicate impact.
