Carbon Sight
Carbon Sight Certified · Built on the largest reference-grade carbon model on Earth

Certify your
product, credibly.

Five tiers, from a single-product certificate to enterprise portfolio management. Every certification backed by public-domain methodology, transparent provenance, and an open audit trail.

Every certification runs on the largest reference-grade carbon model ever built — 123 government and institutional LCAs, 200+ peer-reviewed academic papers from Nature, Science, IPCC, and The Lancet, 215 million-plus scientific data points, zero commercial databases. The same datasets EU CSRD, US SEC, CARB, and CBAM regulators use to set policy. Every certified gram traces back to its sources, cited and verifiable. Open methodology, public verification URL, audit trail anyone can read. Two frontier AI models handle product identification from manufacturer data sheets and product images. The engine — not the AI — produces every certified number.

The citation moat

Every score, cited and traceable.

Every Carbon Sight certification includes citation references to every peer-reviewed paper, government inventory, and verified EPD underlying every gram of CO₂e. Regulators, procurement auditors, and journalists can verify each citation in the same academic indexing systems used by Nature, Science, IPCC, and The Lancet. The same systems used by EU CSRD, US SEC, CARB, and CBAM reviewers.

No other consumer or commercial product carbon score does this. The synthesis is what we built. The citation trail is what makes it trustworthy.

Five tiers, one engine

Every certification runs through the same engine — 123 government and institutional LCAs, 200+ peer-reviewed papers, 215 million-plus scientific data points, zero commercial databases — and the same public methodology. Every certified gram, cited and traceable. The largest reference-grade carbon model on Earth, applied to one SKU. Higher tiers add validation depth, marketing assets, scenario modeling, and human oversight.

Why this works

01
Public methodology, fully auditable

Most product certifications depend on commercial databases customers cannot inspect. Carbon Sight uses only public-domain sources. Your customers and regulators can verify every component used in your certification.

02
The synthesis engine

Every Carbon Sight result is synthesized live from 123 government and institutional LCAs, 200+ peer-reviewed papers, and 215 million-plus public scientific data points. Frontier AI identifies the product from your image or data sheet. The engine — not the AI — computes the carbon. Each component carries full provenance, uncertainty bounds, cross-source corroboration, and a complete citation chain. Your certificate doesn't just give a number — it shows exactly which LCAs were queried, which papers were cited (by name and identifier), which manufacturers were referenced, and how confident we are. The kind of receipt a procurement team or a regulator can verify in their own systems.

03
Honest about uncertainty

Most carbon certifications quote single numbers as if they were truth. Carbon Sight always provides confidence bands and notes when a component was inferred vs. directly measured. Sophisticated buyers — and regulators — respect that.

04
No offset origination, no conflict of interest

We don't sell carbon offsets. We don't issue carbon credits. We don't have any product to sell you that benefits from inflated estimates. Carbon Sight has only one job: produce defensible carbon scores.

How it works

Every tier follows the same five-step flow. Higher tiers add layers of validation and consulting on top.

1
Submit product details
Tell us the product name, category, weight, materials, packaging, manufacturing region, and any primary data you have. The application form below collects what we need.
2
Engine assembles the LCA
The Carbon Sight engine queries our component library, selects the components best matched to your product, and synthesizes a complete carbon assessment with uncertainty propagation.
3
Automated validation
12-point validation checks the result against neighboring products, source agreement, and methodology consistency. Tier 2+ runs the deepest validation passes with our highest-quality model.
4
Human review (Tier 4+)
Tier 4 certifications go through independent third-party auditor review. An ISO 14067 verifier examines every component, sign-off published with the certificate.
5
Delivery
PDF certificate, public methodology page (unique URL for your SKU), QR code, shelf-label artwork (Tier 2+), and any tier-specific deliverables. Most certifications complete in 24-48 hours. Third-party audited certifications: 2-3 weeks.

Scope your certification

Tell our scoping agent about your product. It will check whether Carbon Sight can certify it with public-domain data, and give you a preliminary footprint estimate before you pay. Takes ~2 minutes. No forms, no email exchange.

Carbon Sight · Scoping agent

Built on the same engine as the consumer score app. The agent only asks what's needed to determine if your product fits the public-data methodology.

A note on what certifications are and are not

A Carbon Sight certificate is an audit-grade estimate of your product's carbon footprint based on the best public methodology and data available. It is rigorous, defensible, and produced with documented uncertainty bounds.

It is not a guarantee of any specific real-world emissions number. No product carbon footprint is. Every LCA — ours and everyone else's — is a model. Carbon Sight's distinction is that our model is fully public, our sources are auditable, and we are honest about the uncertainty involved.
