Barrow is an AI-powered environmental due diligence platform designed to simplify and accelerate the preparation of environmental assessment reports. The software focuses initially on Phase I Environmental Site Assessments, helping qualified environmental professionals turn raw site data and supporting documents into structured report drafts.

Environmental due diligence often involves reviewing large amounts of information, including environmental database reports, historical aerial imagery, Sanborn maps, site photographs, property information, and other research materials. Barrow brings these inputs into a single AI-assisted workflow and uses them to prepare a full-length Phase I ESA draft.

Users can create a project, select or upload a report template, and provide the source materials connected to the site assessment. The platform is designed to follow the firm’s preferred document format, section structure, and writing style, helping create a more consistent starting point for report preparation.

Barrow also supports document imports from cloud services such as Google Drive and OneDrive. This can make it easier for environmental professionals to organize project materials and move existing research into the report drafting workflow.

The platform is built around environmental due diligence standards, with Phase I ESA reporting based on ASTM E1527-21 as its current primary use case. Barrow has also outlined future development for additional workflows, including transaction screens, Phase II ESAs, property condition assessments, environmental review documents, and remediation reporting.

An important part of Barrow’s approach is that AI-generated reports are preliminary drafts. The platform does not replace the professional judgment of a qualified Environmental Professional. Users remain responsible for reviewing, validating, and approving the information, findings, and conclusions before a report is finalized or relied upon.

Overall, Barrow helps environmental consulting professionals reduce repetitive drafting work and spend more time on analysis and professional decision-making. By combining document processing, AI-assisted writing, custom templates, and environmental reporting workflows, it provides a specialized solution for modern environmental due diligence.
