Research-grade LCA. Built for product teams who have to defend every number.
LifeCycle IQ
LifeCycle IQ is Boundless' sustainability modeling platform, a hands-on solution that helps product, sales, and sustainability teams design better products, optimize supply chains, and build market differentiation from the ground up. It is a hands-on solution that provides lifecycle intelligence as a continuous capability, not a one-off project.
With AI-native workflows, deep domain expertise, and a proprietary benchmarks database, the platform delivers actionable insights across product sustainability, supply-chain risk, and cost performance at a fraction of the cost and time of traditional LCAs. Boundless has validated this approach across hundreds of advanced technologies, serving companies and critical government infrastructure alike.
Baseline Life Cycle Assessment
Boundless provides ISO-compliant modeling and expert-audited impact reports that give emerging technology companies a rigorous, independent view of their product's sustainability performance. And we are faster and more cost-effective than traditional ISO-compliant LCAs.
We benchmark your product against business-as-usual and commonly deployed technologies in your industry. We assess life cycle and cost performance across key sustainability KPIs to produce a clear, credible picture of where your product stands. And we provide a clear roadmap for product improvements and maximizing your sustainability story.
Our reports and analytics help companies raise funds faster, engage customers more efficiently, and gain valuable insights into key competitors.
Ideal for companies at early commercialization or fundraising stages. We assess your product's performance across a focused set of two to four sustainability KPIs and benchmark it against one key competitor technology, delivering a pithy, smart analysis of how that product is distinct in its category. The resulting report is a concise, expert-reviewed sustainability performance profile that customers and investors can act on.
ISO-Compliant LCA
Boundless’ ISO-compliant LCAs are conducted in accordance with the internationally recognized ISO 14040 and ISO 14044 standards.
An ISO-compliant LCA is highly effective at uncovering key differentiators for a product and is an essential asset for companies or investors who work closely with stakeholders that are familiar with life cycle science principles. The results provide data on both upstream and downstream life cycle performance, giving you full visibility into the areas you are succeeding in and those which could be improved.

We can help you:
- Conduct a peer review of an existing LCA
- Update an outdated LCA
- Translate your LCA into an investor or customer-friendly report
- Validate the results of your LCA
All of our work is audit-ready, meaning you don’t have to be an expert in environmental science to feel confident in your results. The US Department of Energy, USDA, NYSERDA, and CA Energy Commission — among others — have used our ISO-guided reports to validate environmental performance and award millions of dollars of funding and investment to companies.
Techno-economic Analysis
Techno-Economic Analysis (TEA) quantifies the full cost picture behind a product, process, or system and evaluates the economic performance and feasibility across facilities, product lines, and capital structures. It gives leadership teams a rigorous, audit-ready single source of truth aligned to ISO-14076. Pinpoint supply chain hotspots that cut into your margins. Benchmark cost of production and capital expenditures against industry competitors. Model the cost of any process, geography, or capital change before implementation. A Boundless TEA translates technical advancements into defensible business decisions.
