ABOUT US
Streamlining Environmental Consulting
Kurado’s mission is simple: We want to streamline the environmental consulting space to make every inspection faster, more accurate, accessible, on budget, and easier to perform. In a world where data is collected, organized, and shared in real-time for the vast majority of industries, we believe environmental consultants have been badly neglected.
That’s why we’ve built a platform to help you reduce risk, improve your daily process and stay ahead.
Kurado is for environmental consulting firms who are ready to improve the way they conduct their business. We work with industry leaders who know every intricacy of the environmental consulting industry to build a solution that fits into your workflow and improves it by removing touch points and chances for errors.
