Patch

Patch is a carbon removal and offsetting REST API platform that enables businesses to programmatically purchase high-quality carbon credits and integrate sustainability directly into their products and services. The API provides access to a curated marketplace of vetted carbon removal projects including reforestation, direct air capture, enhanced weathering, and other negative emissions technologies. Developers can embed carbon removal at the order level, calculating emissions estimates and placing orders ranging from a single gram to thousands of tonnes of CO2 equivalent. Patch combines an API-first approach with deep carbon market expertise, diligence, and portfolio management tools to help organizations meet science-based net-zero targets with integrity and transparency.

Patch publishes 4 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Order Line Items API, Orders API, Projects API, and 1 more. Tagged areas include Carbon, Carbon Credits, Carbon Removal, Carbon Offsets, and Sustainability.

The Patch catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

Patch’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, pricing, and 11 more developer resources.
