The Biochar Standard

Setting the standard for high-integrity, high-quality nature-based carbon removal.

 

Available for public, stakeholder, academic & industry consultation:

The Hybrid Infrastructure

We're building the first truly integrated physical/digital infrastructure layer for biochar CDR, by combining practical on-farm biomass cultivation, pyrolysis, batch sampling, certification & trading into a single chain-of-custody.

Physical Infrastructure

  • Agroforestry Systems
  • On-farm biochar production, sampling & retirement
  • Multi-farm cooperative certification model
  • Direct, long-term supplier relationships

Digital Architecture

  • Immutable registry database
  • Transparent audit logging
  • Predictive analytics for biochar yield & composition
  • Buyer/supplier dashboards & interfaces

The User Experience

Every interface, workflow & feature is designed to make high-integrity nature-based carbon removal as straightforward as it should be.

 

Linking farmers and buyers as genuine partners in the process, while ensuring the equitable value & transparency required for long-term adoption, and genuine scalability.
