Isometric’s mission is to rebuild trust in carbon markets so carbon dioxide removal (CDR) can scale—responsibly and fast—to the level the planet needs. Transparency is necessary to achieve this mission. Trust in the market can only be established with clear, accessible and accurate data about the scientifically rigorous carbon removal credits Isometric verifies and issues.
For carbon markets to work effectively, all participants—buyers, suppliers, and intermediaries—must have reliable access to information about the carbon credits being used in the market. Recent updates to Isometric’s API improve access to public Registry data, making detailed data about Isometric credits—and the projects behind them—more accessible.
There are three key improvements to the API that make Isometric data easier to access and understand, marking a significant step toward providing the open data the market needs.
First, we've added endpoints to all categories of Registry data. This allows users to instantly fetch data-rich lists that detail the suppliers, projects, issuances, deliveries, transfers and retirements of all Isometric credits. This is all the information available on our public Registry. This enhancement dramatically simplifies data retrieval, empowering stakeholders to better analyze and understand the market.
Second, we have enriched the data provided within these endpoints with the inclusion of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) data on individual credit batches. This enables users to visualize removal data, with information on gross and net removal, emissions and counterfactuals. This feature provides insights into the environmental impact of CDR projects and enables users to make more informed decisions.
Third, the Isometric API now facilitates credit transactions more efficiently. Users can view their available credits and utilize a range of queries to filter the dataset. Suppliers can deliver credits and buyers can transfer or retire them. This functionality streamlines operations and enhances the traceability of credit movements.
A number of leading carbon data providers, such as CDR.fyi, MSCI and Sylvera, are now leveraging Isometric’s new API features to keep their users informed about current carbon market trends. For example, CDR.fyi’s integration with Isometric's API allows them to display more granular detail on projects and orders, including issuances, deliveries and retirements. In the near future, orders shown on CDR.fyi that have been processed through Isometric will identify Isometric as the registry so interested parties can trace details about the supplier and the order.
Isometric has also partnered with key platforms, such as CEEZER, who are utilizing this enhanced API to make detailed credit information available to users purchasing through their platforms. The inclusion of CDR data visualizations makes it easier to understand and communicate important delivery details. This level of accessibility is crucial for building trust among buyers and ensuring that carbon credits are being used effectively to combat climate change.
Hannes Nützman, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer of CEEZER said this about the partnership:
By offering open access to structured data, automated fulfillment, and a modern API, Isometric’s agile registry marks a significant leap forward. On CEEZER, users can access real-time carbon credit availability from Isometric-listed suppliers to efficiently manage, transfer, and retire credits. Every activity is recorded, providing transparency that upholds the integrity of the voluntary carbon market.
Isometric partners can now regularly sync Isometric data across suppliers and credits, enhance analysis through proprietary systems and help their users compare projects across the CDR industry. By collaborating this way, crucial data about CDR can reach a wide audience and contribute to a more informed and efficient carbon market. These improvements and partnerships cement Isometric’s data as a foundational resource for the CDR industry. By fostering a market where all participants can make informed decisions, we ensure that carbon markets develop with high standards of transparency and accountability.
