Ratings you can
actually audit.

Carbon markets have a credibility problem: a credit is a claim that emissions were avoided or removed somewhere, and buyers have historically had no reliable way to check. Sylvera exists to price that uncertainty.

It rates projects pre-issuance and post-issuance, monitors them continuously, and publishes its frameworks — with an advisory board and a deliberate separation between its commercial and rating functions, so the ratings are not for sale.

A rating is only as good as the data underneath it, and the data is heterogeneous and messy. Satellite imagery, financial filings, registry records and project documentation all arrive in different formats on different schedules, for projects scattered across the world.

It also cannot be a one-time assessment. Projects change — a forest burns, a methodology is revised, a developer misses a milestone — so monitoring has to be continuous and rating changes have to propagate to everyone relying on them.

• R1Automated ingestion of remote sensing, financial and project data
• R2A live database of 20,000+ carbon projects, searchable and filterable
• R3Pre-issuance, post-issuance and early-stage rating workflows
• R4Continuous monitoring with alerts on performance or rating changes
• R5Jurisdictional insight and market intelligence on prices and policy
• R6Procurement support connecting buyers to vetted suppliers

We delivered a data-intensive platform built around automated ingestion, so analysts spend their time on judgement rather than on collecting and cleaning inputs.

Where the engineering effort concentrates: ingestion and change detection. Rating a project once is tractable; keeping 20,000 ratings current as the underlying data shifts is what makes this a platform rather than a report.
