Watershed

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Watershed, answered by our editorial team.

Is Watershed free?

No, Watershed requires contacting sales for pricing — there's no published flat rate or free tier, consistent with its focus on enterprise sustainability teams with formal reporting requirements.

Who uses Watershed?

Primarily enterprise sustainability and ESG teams needing audit-ready emissions data for regulatory reporting requirements (like the EU's CSRD or emerging climate disclosure rules) and for investor-facing climate commitments and net-zero pledges.

Is Watershed good for small businesses?

Generally overkill — Watershed's audit-ready rigor and enterprise pricing are built for companies facing formal regulatory or investor disclosure requirements. Smaller businesses with simple, voluntary sustainability tracking needs are typically better served by a more accessible tool like Sweep.

What are Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions?

Scope 1 covers direct emissions from owned operations (company vehicles, on-site fuel use), Scope 2 covers emissions from purchased electricity and energy, and Scope 3 covers all indirect emissions across a company's value chain (supply chain, business travel, employee commuting, product use) — Scope 3 is typically the largest and hardest category to measure accurately.

How does Watershed collect emissions data?

Rather than relying entirely on manual data entry, Watershed integrates with existing business systems — cloud infrastructure billing, corporate card and expense data, procurement systems — to pull activity data and convert it into emissions estimates using established calculation methodologies.

Does Watershed help reduce emissions, or just measure them?

Both — alongside measurement and reporting, Watershed includes reduction planning tools to help sustainability teams identify the highest-impact opportunities for emissions reduction and track progress against climate targets over time.

Is Watershed's data good enough for regulatory disclosure?

Watershed positions its methodology specifically around audit-ready, disclosure-grade reporting, aiming to meet the rigor required by frameworks like the EU's CSRD or SEC climate disclosure rules, though companies should confirm current methodology details align with their specific jurisdiction's requirements as regulations continue to evolve.

What is a referral bonus on Kreemhunt?

A referral bonus is an incentive — like bonus credit, a discount, or extra features — that a software vendor offers when someone signs up through a referral link or code instead of going to the product directly. Kreemhunt tracks which of the tools we cover currently have an active referral arrangement, like Watershed, so you don't have to hunt for one yourself.

Does Watershed currently have a referral code or link?

Not at the moment. Kreemhunt doesn't have a tracked referral code or link for Watershed right now — this page will update automatically if one becomes available, so it's worth checking back before you sign up.

Does using a referral link cost me anything extra?

No. Using a referral link or code to sign up for Watershed costs the same as signing up directly — in most cases referral programs are designed so the new user gets a bonus and the referrer gets a reward, with no markup passed on to you.

How do I claim Watershed's referral bonus?

There's no active referral bonus for Watershed tracked on Kreemhunt right now. Once one becomes available, it'll appear in the referral box on this page along with instructions for claiming it.
