# Patch

**APIs profiled:** 4

Patch is an API-first climate platform that helps companies procure carbon credits and removals, run climate strategy programs, and embed climate action into their own products. The core Patch API exposes carbon projects, estimates, and orders so developers can build offset purchase flows directly into checkouts, accounting systems, and ESG products. Patch also runs Radius (network-based impact acceleration), Offtake (climate tech funding and long-term credit access), and an RFP tool for carbon credit procurement. Official SDKs are available for Node.js, Python, Ruby, and other languages, and the API is documented with an OpenAPI 3 spec and Swagger UI.
