Our mission is simple: to provide sensible, cost-effective solutions for those truly committed to mitigating climate impact with precision and integrity.

Sustainability done well isn’t about optics. It’s about hitting real, ambitious targets. When we looked at today’s carbon marketplace, we saw a gap: despite growing demand, buyers still lack access to credits that are both sensible and cost-effective. That gap is why Sky Harvest was founded.
A carbon credit only matters if it completely and irreversibly offsets emissions. Today’s credits rarely meet that test. Even Direct Air Capture (DAC)—often called the gold standard—doesn’t always deliver. Many credits fall short on two fronts: completeness (the full removal of the emissions being offset) and irreversibility (the guarantee that those removals last).
Take DAC as an example. Projects may claim 10,000 years of sequestration, but most require 5–10 years—or longer—before they even come online. That means credits sold today don’t align with the timing of the emissions they’re meant to offset. Add to that the risks we’ve already seen with injection wells leaking or CO₂ encroaching into groundwater, and the promise of permanent storage becomes less certain. The point isn’t that DAC is broken—it’s that the system for measuring wco2hen and how impact happens needs to be smarter.
This is the reason Sky Harvest exists: to reimagine the marketplace around the buyer who seeks true climate impact. Our mission—to provide sensible, cost-effective solutions with precision and integrity—guides everything we do.
That mission led us to create the True Credit: a new standard in carbon credits. True Credits precisely, completely, and irreversibly offset emissions. They ensure completeness by bundling as many tons of CO₂ removal as needed to fully match every ton emitted. They guarantee irreversibility by issuing credits only after the benefit has been delivered and verified. And they bring a new level of rigor: more than 15,000 data points collected per acre of forest, giving buyers measurable confidence in every purchase. The response we’re seeing tells us this is a solution whose time has come.
We developed True Credits in partnership with small and underserved forest landowners. By deferring timber harvests, these landowners keep in service one of the most reliable, scalable, and cost-effective CO₂ removal tools we have—trees. Yet less than 7% of these landowners are even aware of carbon markets, and fewer than 1% participate. By engaging this untapped supply, we both broaden opportunity for landowners and deliver competitive pricing for buyers.
Our vision is a marketplace where the hallmarks of a True Credit—precision, completeness, irreversibility—become the baseline, not the exception. A marketplace where every credit is backed by math, not marketing. A marketplace where every dollar spent delivers the a dollar’s worth of impact.
We’re not here just to win in today’s market. We’re here to make tomorrow’s market win for everyone.
