CSRD double materiality assessment

Incorporating the latest LLMs (large language models) into the Upright Data Engine:

• In general, the Upright DMA Data Engine has been updated to use the latest LLMs published in autumn 2025, resulting in improved specificity and accuracy across product-impact pairs, impact reasonings, value chain assessment, scale/scope/irremediability/likelihood values, and ultimately materiality scores and materiality of IROs.

• The update is particularly noticeable under ESRS S3 Affected Communities, where, for example, impacts now receive lower probability values overall and materiality scores therefore exceed thresholds less frequently.

• Reminder: LLMs are applied only in well-defined and controllable steps within the Upright data model, and their outputs undergo multiple validation rounds, including expert reviews.

Upright releases market’s first fully self service double materiality assessment solution:

• Users can conduct their double materiality assessment in self service mode assisted with LLMs and in-application guidance. For example, the list of products and services will be prepopulated with an option for users’ own adjustments and iteration. New users will have access to interactive platform onboarding tours to empower a wider user base.

• The new self service solution offers companies an option to get started at no-cost on Starter tier and upgrade options to increase assessment breadth and additional functionalities to fit their needs in use-cases such as sustainability reporting, audit, and strategy integration.

Impact-specific details consolidated into one place for simpler navigation

• Users can find all relevant details on a specific impact on an impact side bar.

• Sidebar consolidates impact summary details, product, geographies, and disclosures that influence materiality, and scientific evidence.

Note: Depending on your contract, recent updates to DMA data and new features may not appear automatically. In some cases, updates become visible only during the agreed annual update cycle. For further details, please contact your Upright representative.
