About Metabolic Software
Mission
At Metabolic Software, we strive to transition the global economy to a fundamentally sustainable state.
A new economic model is necessary: one that ensures the wellbeing of all people and allows organizations to thrive without transgressing the safe boundaries of the earth’s natural systems. And we don’t have much time. Metabolic Software builds tools that assess the impact of organizations, and of products and services, on the environment. We also provide insights into how those impacts can be minimized.
As part of the wider Metabolic ecosystem, we automate scientific methods, scaling sustainable solutions to critical problems.
At the core of our mission is the transition to an economy that is circular by design.

The alternative materials tool
Material Flow Analysis tool
The Material Flow Analysis (MFA) tool automates the generation of Sankey diagrams based on standardized input data. These diagrams beautifully illustrate inputs and outputs in a system, allowing us to analyze the circularity of a given system and visually communicate results such as high-impact hotspots. Metabolic uses them in almost all of our projects, and this tool greatly speeds up our process.
ChemDSS is an eco-design tool that simplifies the design of green chemical formulations. The tool makes it easy to design green formulations, reducing the amount of time it takes to assess the toxicity and environmental impact of a formulation from months to minutes.
