# Activity Browser
The **Activity Browser (AB) is an open source software for Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)** that builds on [Brightway2](https://brightway.dev).
### Some highlights
- **Fast LCA calculations**: for multiple reference flows, impact categories, and scenarios
- **A productivity tool for brightway**: model in brightway (python) and see the results in the AB or vice-versa
- **Advanced modeling:** Use parameters, scenarios (including prospective LCI databases from [premise](https://premise.readthedocs.io/en/latest/)), uncertainties and our Graph Explorer
- **Advanced analyses:** Contribution analyses, Sankey Diagrams, Monte Carlo, and Global Sensitivity Analysis
- **Plugins:** Extend the functionality of Activity Browser with
