  • Clicking on the Recomentor (5) button will open the Recomentor website in a new browser tab.

  • You can switch between Light, Dark and System mode with the Switch Mode (6) button.

  • The Register button (which is replaced with a Login (7) button after registering an account) will open a Registration window where you can enter your e-mail and fill out necessary account detail. Once you have an account, you can log in via the Login button and customize your search experience by choosing between the following user profiles:

    • Generalist (a): They want to understand and see all aspects of ESG driven developments, their benefits and impact on both micro and macro level.

      Note

      This user profile provides the same search experience as would be available to users without an account.

    • Consumer (b): They are passionate about sustainable living and want to make informed choices, reduce their carbon footprint. Their mantra: Let's build a greener future together!

    • ESG Strategist (c): They want to assist companies in navigating across the ESG frameworks, developing strategies and reporting on the environmental and social impacts, and are always up-to-date regarding regulations, standards and best practices enabling them to drive positive change.

    • Investor (d): They have a deep understanding of ESG factors, sustainable finance as well as their impact on investment strategies and risk management. They are adept at interpreting complex financial and macroeconomic data to guide informed decision-making.

    • Risk Manager (e): They are not only passionate about mitigating business, climate and ESG risks but also want to develop comprehensive frameworks, leverage the FEW Index, and help organizations address complex challenges to ensure healthy growth and long-term resilience.

  • A prompt field (8) lets you type in ESG-related questions. Auto-complete and concept suggestions may appear to help you formulate your questions. Clicking on concept suggestions will copy them underneath the search box which can be selected and replaced with a narrower concept (if available) to pose more specific questions. You can click on the send icon after you are done formulating your question.

  • Clicking on one of the glowing, animated circles (referred to as 'hype elements' (9)) will automatically fill the search field with an example question related to the object they are associated with. For example, clicking on the glowing icon over the sun will provide a sample question related to solar panels.
