Sylvera

Sylvera is a London-headquartered carbon data and climate intelligence platform — often described as the "Moody's for the voluntary carbon market" — providing independent ratings, market data, and geospatial analytics that help corporate buyers, investors, project developers, governments, and standards bodies make informed decisions across carbon and commodities markets. Founded in 2020 by Allister Furey and Samuel Gill, Sylvera combines remote sensing, machine learning over satellite imagery and LiDAR-derived biomass data, and on-the-ground project assessment to produce letter-graded ratings (e.g., AA, A, B) for carbon credit projects across nature-based (REDD+, ARR, IFM), engineered removals, renewable energy, and cookstove methodologies. The platform's product surface spans Ratings, Market Intelligence (supply, demand, and pricing signals), an Article 6 & CORSIA Hub for compliance risk, a Market Gateway to roughly 400 million tonnes of project inventory, Earth Analytics and a Biomass Atlas for geospatial MRV, and Commodity Insights covering CORSIA, LCFS, CFR, and FuelEU Maritime mechanism eligibility and carbon intensity assessments. Sylvera distributes its data through a web platform, downloadable reports, and a gated Carbon Credit Analytics API (base URL https://api.sylvera.com/v1, JSON API style, API-key auth) used to syndicate ratings and pricing into ESG and sustainability reporting tools such as Workiva, Persefoni, and Watershed. Commercial packaging runs Freemium, Essentials, and Enterprise tiers, with Accelerated Ratings, Market Forecasts, and Geospatial add-ons all sold via contact-sales; there is no public OpenAPI specification, no published SDK, and no Sylvera GitHub organization — the API and full ratings catalog are available only to authenticated enterprise customers.

Sylvera is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Carbon Markets, Voluntary Carbon Market, Carbon Credits, Carbon Credit Ratings, and Climate Intelligence.

Sylvera’s developer surface includes engineering blog, pricing, status page, signup flow, YouTube channel, and 19 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/sylvera: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
