In the constantly evolving world of corporate management, Apiday is positioning itself as an innovative solution for ESG reporting. Founded at the end of 2021 by Charles Moury and Edouard Audi, this French startup meets the growing needs of private equity funds and companies for transparency and monitoring of environmental, social and governance criteria. Let’s take a look at how Apiday modernizes CSR data management and contributes to the sustainable development of companies.
Apiday: a centralized solution for ESG reporting
Apiday stands out for its innovative approach to ESG reporting, combining cutting-edge technology with human expertise. The platform offers an intuitive software tool, enhanced by artificial intelligence, enabling companies to efficiently collect, analyze and present their extra-financial data. This solution meets a crucial need in a context where regulations, such as the SFDR (Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation), are imposing greater transparency on ESG criteria.
One of Apiday’s major assets lies in its ability to :
- Map current ESG questionnaires
- Identify the documents required for reporting
- Automatically extract relevant information using AI
- Support users with dedicated ESG experts
This holistic approach enables companies to save considerable time in preparing their extra-financial reports, while guaranteeing the accuracy and relevance of the information communicated. As a result, Apiday is an ideal ally for organizations concerned about their environmental and social impact.
Dazzling growth and an international outlook
Apiday’s success has been undeniable since its creation. The startup has won over investors and customers alike, as demonstrated by its recent Series A financing round of €10 million. The deal, led by Daphni with the participation of AENU, SWEN Capital and Galion.exe, follows an initial round of 4.5 million euros in 2021. These successive investments confirm our confidence in Apiday’s vision and potential in a rapidly expanding market.
The startup’s international ambitions are rapidly taking shape:
- Presence in 23 countries

This expansion testifies to the adaptability of the Apiday solution to different regulatory and cultural contexts. The startup is also planning significant growth in its workforce, from 40 to 70 employees over the next 12 months, thereby reinforcing its ability to meet the needs of a booming market.
Apiday’s impact on corporate sustainability
Beyond its role in ESG reporting, Apiday plays a crucial role in transforming business practices. By facilitating the monitoring and analysis of extra-financial data, the platform enables companies to make informed decisions in terms of sustainable development. This systematic approach to ESG criteria is proving increasingly decisive in :
| Area | Apiday’s impact |

By providing a clear, actionable view of ESG performance, Apiday encourages companies to adopt more responsible, sustainable practices. This positive dynamic contributes not only to improving the brand image of organizations, but also to creating long-term value for all stakeholders.
Towards a new era in business management
The emergence of Apiday is part of a wider movement towards digital and ethical transformation of the business world. By offering a solution that combines cutting-edge technology and human expertise, the startup is responding to a growing need among companies of all sizes: to integrate environmental, social and governance considerations at the heart of their strategy.
Apiday’s innovative approach paves the way for a new era in corporate management, where financial performance is necessarily accompanied by extra-financial performance. This evolution reflects the growing expectations of consumers, investors and regulators in terms of corporate social responsibility.
By facilitating access to and analysis of ESG data, Apiday not only simplifies reporting. The platform catalyzes a collective awareness of the importance of sustainable development in the business world. It encourages managers to rethink their business models to incorporate more responsible practices, similarly creating a virtuous circle that benefits business, society and the environment.
The future looks bright for Apiday and the companies that adopt its solution. In a context where transparency and responsibility are becoming cardinal values, the ability to effectively manage ESG data is becoming a major competitive advantage. Apiday therefore positions itself not just as a reporting tool, but as a genuine strategic partner in the quest for more sustainable and equitable economic development.
