Instant, Free Carbon Portfolio Assessments: Powered by AI and Science

How did we do with our carbon credit strategy? 

For the vast majority of buyers in the carbon credit market, that’s a lingering question even after making a purchase. Did we strike the right balance between avoidance and removal credits, and across nature-based and technology-based projects? Did we miss anything in our due diligence?

Historically, it hasn’t been that easy – or cheap – to get a quick answer. Buyers can hire a consultant to conduct an in-depth review and perform diligence, or spend hours reading through hundreds of pages of project design documents.

At CNaught, we’ve tried to help by offering manual portfolio reviews to previous buyers to help them identify what they’ve done well and opportunities to improve. However, manual and one-to-one efforts don’t scale and drive market-wide improvements.

That’s why we’re so excited to introduce our new Portfolio Assessment Tool. It combines the expertise of our science team with the latest in AI technology, to deliver tailored insights about your carbon credit portfolio, instantly and at no cost. With our new tool, you can evaluate the quality and composition of your carbon credit purchases and learn where you have room to improve. 

Together, we’re working to raise the bar on integrity across the market and empowering participants to make smarter climate investments.

How It Works:

  1. Go to https://www.cnaught.com/portfolio-assessment
  2. Add all previously purchased carbon credit projects in your portfolio
  3. Download your portfolio assessment report for detailed risk analysis insights and recommendations for improvement

What You’ll Get 

  • A review of your portfolio's diversification across project type and geography
  • A check of whether your projects pass or fail CNaught's initial integrity screen
  • A detailed analysis of your portfolio, including potential diversification risks or integrity concerns
  • Actionable recommendations to improve your project selection process and portfolio strategy
  • A comparison of your portfolio against the overall market and CNaught’s own portfolios
  • And more!

Whether you're thinking about refining your procurement strategy or just curious about your past purchases, this tool gives you a clear, science-backed foundation for making better decisions.

The Fine Print

This report is generated using foundational insights from our science team, with the help of AI. Generative AI can make mistakes, so it shouldn't be used to make purchasing decisions. Instead, please reach out to our team with any questions.

For projects in our portfolios, our science team conducts comprehensive due diligence to validate their carbon claims, ensure robust safeguards against environmental and social harms and evaluate their co-benefits.
