Climate Decode was founded by a group of practitioners who have spent their careers operating inside regulated carbon markets, advising large emitters, and building carbon market intelligence for real financial decisions. After seeing first-hand how fragmented data, opaque pricing, and disconnected compliance tools result in poor allocation of scarce decarbonisation capital, reputation risk and resource allocation, they set out to build the system that should have existed from day one.
