Sylvera

Independent carbon credit ratings platform using satellite data and machine learning; it rates credit quality, not biodiversity itself.

Sylvera rates the quality of carbon credits from forestry, soil and other nature-based projects, using satellite imagery, LiDAR and machine-learning models to independently estimate a project's actual carbon impact, additionality and permanence risk, then scores it much like a credit-rating agency scores bonds. It is important to be precise about what Sylvera does: it does not measure biodiversity directly or run field ecological surveys; it evaluates and scores carbon credits that projects have already issued or plan to issue, so buyers, brokers and corporates can judge quality before purchase or retirement. The platform is sold as an enterprise SaaS subscription to carbon buyers, project developers and financial institutions, with access to ratings, monitoring dashboards and portfolio-risk tools.
