Cloverly
Cloverly is an Atlanta-headquartered climate technology company that operates a developer-first carbon-credit infrastructure platform. The Cloverly API estimates and purchases verified carbon offsets in real time across a curated portfolio of reforestation, biochar, direct air capture, renewable energy, and methane-abatement projects sourced from registries such as Verra, Gold Standard, ACR, Climate Action Reserve, and Puro.earth. The Catalyst product extends the same platform to project developers managing inventory, pricing, content, payments, and omnichannel distribution. In 2024 Cloverly was acquired by Climate Impact X (CIX), the Singapore-based carbon exchange, and has since operated as the technology arm powering CIX-aligned voluntary carbon market infrastructure.
Cloverly publishes 4 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Estimates API, Purchases API, Offset Types API, and 1 more. Tagged areas include Carbon, Carbon Credits, Carbon Offsets, Catalyst, and Climate.
The Cloverly catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 2 Spectral governance rulesets.
Cloverly’s developer surface includes authentication, developer portal, documentation, signup flow, engineering blog, YouTube channel, API reference, and 23 more developer resources.

vehicle (distance + fuel efficiency), flights (passenger-miles), electricity (kWh), direct carbon weight, and fixed currency
amounts. Each estimate returns a slug, the equivalent carbon in grams, the matched offset source, and the transaction
cost in USD cents, then can be converted to a purchase via the Purchases API.
