What Dcycle does

Dcycle (legal entity The Wake Up Movement, S.L.) is a Madrid-headquartered SaaS company, founded in 2020, that provides an environmental, social, and governance (ESG) data management platform for European enterprises, mid-market companies, and SMEs. The platform automates collection of sustainability data from operational systems and turns a single data entry into output across multiple regulatory frameworks including CSRD/ESRS, EU Taxonomy, GRI, TCFD, CDP, GHG Protocol, ISO 14001/14064/50001, EcoVadis, LCA, VSME, EINF, and Spain's Mobility Law. As of 2024 Dcycle reported 2,000+ European customers spanning manufacturing, financial services, food and beverage, automotive, construction, textiles, retail, energy, healthcare, agriculture, and hospitality verticals.

The product is built on a modular architecture with a core data collection engine connecting to 15+ native integrations (SAP, Oracle NetSuite, Sage, Microsoft Dynamics, Salesforce, HubSpot, Factorial, QuickBooks, Xero, DATEV, A3, TravelPerk, Google Drive, SharePoint, Excel, Datadis) feeding reporting modules for CSRD, carbon footprint (Scopes 1/2/3), supplier engagement, product-level LCA, decarbonization planning, ISO 14001, and CDP questionnaires. A proprietary AI assistant called Leia performs OCR, classification, emission factor matching, anomaly detection, and agentic workflows; an MCP server allows external AI agents to query structured ESG data. Infrastructure is EU-hosted, certified to ISO 27001:2022 (TÜV Rheinland) and SOC 2 Type II, and GDPR-compliant.

Dcycle operates a sales-led go-to-market with direct enterprise field sales and inside sales for mid-market, using quote-based annual subscriptions (with a free trial). The company is venture-backed with approximately €7M raised across a June 2022 €1M seed and a December 2024 Series A of ~$6.3M led by Samaipata, with Draper B1, Decelera, Sabadell Venture Capital, Angels Capital, and Ship2B Ventures participating. In February 2026 Dcycle made its first acquisition, taking 100% of Munich-based ESG-X to enter the DACH region. The company maintains offices in Madrid (HQ), London, and Munich, with a CEO (Juanjo Mestre) and a small leadership team that includes former Tesla executive Valentin Aman following the ESG-X deal.

Core offering

Dcycle sells a modular ESG data management SaaS platform that enables companies to collect sustainability data, run multi-framework reports (CSRD, GHG Protocol, ISO 14064, SBTi, CDP, EcoVadis, GRI), perform product-level Life Cycle Assessments (LCA), measure carbon footprints, manage decarbonization plans, and engage suppliers on ESG performance. The platform is complemented by an embedded AI assistant (Leia), an MCP server/API for integrations, and professional services for implementation and expert advisory.

Product overview

Dcycle is a cloud-based ESG data management platform with a modular architecture that enables companies to collect, manage, and report sustainability data across multiple regulatory frameworks. The platform is built around a core data collection engine (Data Collection) that feeds into automated multi-framework reporting capabilities (Multi-Framework Reporting, CSRD Reporting, CDP Questionnaire, Carbon Footprint, ISO 14001, Product-Level LCA). The platform integrates Leia, an AI assistant providing OCR processing, automatic data classification, and natural language query capabilities. Additional modules cover supplier engagement, decarbonization planning, and evidence traceability. Enterprise features include Roles & Permissions, Multi-Entity Management, and API access. Professional Services and Expert Guidance add-ons provide human advisory support. The February 2026 acquisition of ESG-X expanded Dcycle's AI capabilities and DACH region presence.
