Bring Cloudability up to the levels of its competitors in sustainabiity reporting

I have reviewed the carbon reporting capabilities of Cloudability and realised that there are some huge gaps when compared to market leaders such as Sopht, Greenpixie, Tailpipe and even Cloud Carbon Footprint. Cloudability doesn't seem to report on embodied emisions, which can be over 50% if digital emissions reporting in many cases. This is also requirement for our reporting in government. It's also my understanding that Cloudability doesn't report on storage and some other parts of AWS? The reporting frequency is also slow and poor compared to others in the market. Finally, it looks like emission factors are not using the National Grid data, so that's not ideal either.
