SLR's first client-facing AI digital worker aimed at supporting companies with their strategy and supply chain.

Business for Societal Impact (B4SI), the global standard and network that helps companies measure, manage, and report the social impact of their corporate community and sustainability investments, welcomes its new AI digital worker, Astra. Astra is designed and trained to support practitioners by answering questions and assisting in the application of the B4SI Framework, methodology and available resources. Informed entirely by B4SI guidance and the B4SI team’s expertise, Astra will provide members with 24/7 global access to clear and consistent answers, helping them manage their social impact programmes and strategies.

Supported by SLR, Astra was built in partnership with FutureSecureAI, a leading artificial intelligence (AI) company operating in the rapidly expanding field of enterprise transformation, specialising in the large-scale design and deployment of AI workers. The launch of Astra signals SLR’s commitment to using technology as a positive force in Making Sustainability Happen.

Bradley Andrews, CEO at SLR says: “With B4SI already recognised as the global standard for credible social impact data and informed decision-making, applying AI to this trusted framework was a natural next step - unlocking capacity, driving innovation, and empowering members to focus on truly strategic decisions.”

Clodagh Connolly, Global Director at B4SI says: “Astra transforms how practitioners engage with B4SI by delivering instant, multilingual access to our deep knowledge base - streamlining routine tasks and unlocking time for more strategic, high-value work. Whether it’s clarifying key concepts, navigating impact measurement, or pointing users to the right tools, Astra delivers fast, reliable guidance that boosts both confidence and efficiency. More than just a support tool, Astra represents a positive social use of AI - creating a smarter, more connected B4SI experience where technology and human insight work together to empower better decisions and accelerate meaningful societal impact.”
