With exclusive insights from 250+ companies, we break down how businesses are responding to the Omnibus Proposal, the growing role of voluntary reporting, and what it all means for your ESG strategy.
Mapping a complex supply chain is hard enough on its own, but the EU's Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) adds a whole new layer. The law only allows deforestation-free products on the EU market, which means companies now need to prove exactly where their goods come from and how they were produced—right down to the plot of land.
There’s no shortage of tools popping up to help with this, but figuring out which one fits your business best can feel overwhelming.
This guide breaks down some of the top traceability platforms, risk assessment tools, and due diligence systems available right now, plus a few tips on what to look for so you can choose with confidence.
In this guide:
Before jumping into the tools, let’s quickly recap what EUDR compliance software is all about.
The EUDR is a new law aimed at ending the EU’s contribution to global deforestation. Businesses must prove that their products are deforestation-free and meet local legal requirements.
With the world losing primary tropical forest at a rate of about 11 football fields every minute (as of 2022), it's clear why regulations like the EUDR are being put in place. But for sustainability leads, compliance teams, and especially SMEs, this brings big changes (and challenges) in how supply chain data is collected, verified, and reported.
Think chasing suppliers for GPS coordinates and legal documents, struggling to match products to the right HS codes, pulling data from scattered sources, and trying to avoid blocked shipments or fines, all while guessing what “negligible risk” really means…
To tackle these bottlenecks, many are turning to specialized EUDR compliance platforms.
These tools do the heavy lifting when it comes to assessing deforestation and legality risks across key commodities—including cattle, soy, palm oil, wood, cocoa, and rubber—before placing them on the EU market.
From geo-data and DDS submissions to risk mitigation and audit trails, they’re quickly becoming essential to support today’s complex, multi-tier supply chains.
So, now we know what EUDR compliance tools are all about, let’s take a look at some of the best options out there for 2025 supply chain due diligence.
Coolset gives supply chain and compliance teams a single platform to manage EUDR from end-to-end - without spreadsheets or disconnected systems. Built for operators and traders, it brings clarity and speed to every step of the due diligence process.
From day one, users can trace shipments to the plot level using GPS coordinates, harvest data, and HS codes; flag deforestation or legality risks with transparent scoring; and generate due diligence statements (DDS) that sync directly to the EU TRACES portal.

When selecting an EUDR compliance tool, consider your business’s specific needs, supply chain complexity, and resource availability to choose the solution that best aligns with your compliance and sustainability goals. Let’s take a look at some key decision criteria:
Under the EUDR, companies must trace materials back to the exact plots where they were produced, using geolocation data (polygons for plots over 4 ha, points for smaller ones).
For example, in 2023, 83% of cocoa in Ghana and 82% in Côte d’Ivoire was traceable to the farm level, showing progress, but also gaps. Choosing software with strong traceability features helps ensure compliance and supply chain transparency.
Look for tools that automate the creation and submission of DDS, integrating seamlessly with the EU’s TRACES system.
The software should align with your Environmental, Social, and Governance goals, supporting broader sustainability reporting requirements.
A user-friendly interface for suppliers facilitates data collection and encourages compliance across the supply chain.
Opt for EUDR compliance tools that provide transparent risk assessments, allowing you to understand and justify compliance decisions.
Under the EUDR, companies must retain compliance records, like geolocation data, supplier details, and due diligence statements, for at least five years. This ensures that, if audited, all necessary documentation is readily accessible and verifiable.
Choosing a system with powerful data storage, easy retrieval, and clear audit trails is a must-have for compliance and maintaining trust with regulators.
By focusing on these criteria, you can select a software solution that not only ensures compliance but also enhances your supply chain’s transparency and sustainability.
When choosing EUDR compliance software, it helps to get clear on what really matters. These are the features that tend to make the biggest difference, especially for companies navigating complex supply chains or limited internal resources:
Whether you’re just getting started or scaling up, the right tool can save time, reduce risk, and make compliance far less stressful.
Coolset’s EUDR compliance tool is one of the few that ticks all the boxes, combining deep traceability, automation, and smart workflows in a way that’s intuitive and easy to roll out, even without a full ESG team.
