Nordic Credit is the base camp for carbon removal projects — a CRM for the smallholder farmer collectives, carbon accounting for every tonne they make, a trustless audit platform for the registry, and craftsman services for everything between soil and certificate.
No registry admits a smallholder directly. Accounts, methodologies and validation fees are sized for plantations, not five acres and a kiln — Africa, where smallholders dominate, supplies under 3% of the world's traded carbon.1
Between farm gate and registry sits a chain of brokers who add little and take much2 — what reaches the grower is low and irregular.3 A credit that pays everyone but the farmer is greenwash with a receipt.
Conventional MRV runs $150–200 a farmer, against $5–45 a year in credit income4 — thirty to forty cents of every project dollar goes to proving, not growing.5 At the small end, verification costs more than the carbon is worth.
More than 90% of the leading standard's rainforest credits were reported worthless — paperwork stopped counting as proof.6 Without provenance an investor can walk end to end, every honest tonne trades at a rumour's price.
Production is not the bottleneck. Proof is.
A farmer joins the way they already talk — a WhatsApp-based CRM that opens the site’s record with a hello, in their own language.
Photos, weighbridge slips, voice notes — evidence gathered from small producers as the work happens, not months after.
Every verified tonne posts to a carbon ledger — produced, issued, retired, buffered — so field records and registry statements never disagree.
An automated, trustless audit platform — AI examines every artefact on arrival and the file seals itself. No favours possible.
A maturity rating for every site — five grades an investor can price, climbed on evidence alone, never on a pitch.
Onboarding, land records, kiln logs, payment trails — the whole relationship with a small producer, held in the chat they already use. No app to install, nothing new to learn.
Double-entry for the carbon economy. Batches post themselves from field evidence; issuance, retirement and buffer pools reconcile against the registry — tonnes and money in one set of books.
Every artefact examined the moment it lands — geotag, timestamp, duplicates, mass balance. The audit file writes itself into the exact form Puro accepts, with a diligence room buyers can walk.
Whether you make the carbon or buy it, a note is the start. A real person replies within the week — even to the ones we're not the right fit for.
