A sustainability manager tracking a company's carbon footprint spends a lot of the week chasing people for the numbers, an employee's commute, a fuel receipt, a file that proves an activity happened. Newtral.io exists to hold all of that, and paired with Mobile Message through Zapier a text message becomes another way that information gets logged instead of chased down over email.

Newtral.io's add employee, add activity and upload a file actions each create a record inside your emissions reporting, and a Zap can run any of them once something happens elsewhere, a form gets filled in, a receipt gets uploaded, a new starter is added to payroll. Because Newtral.io has no trigger events of its own, it only ever sits on the receiving end of a Zap, never the starting point.

That receiving end pairs well with Mobile Message's inbound SMS trigger, so a reply from a customer or staff member can be logged straight into Newtral.io as an activity without anyone copying it across by hand. The same actions also work further along a Zap that starts somewhere else entirely, a form submission can add an activity in Newtral.io and then have Mobile Message send a text confirming it was logged.
