Every carbon project is different — so every due diligence is too. We tailor our review to the risks that matter most for your project, surfacing the red flags early so you can move forward with confidence.
The types of projects we can review
The project is already running
It may have issued credits. We independently verify additionality, eligibility and credit robustness against what has actually been issued, confirm planting and land cover from satellite data, and analyse disturbance and fire.
The project is seeking validation
We run a full risk-and-mitigations review against the standard, assess baseline and additionality, independently model carbon / VCU potential, review the PDD, and recommend improvements.
Developed by carbon scientists and ecologists
Your Due Diligence report will be delivered by our solutions team, that brings together carbon standard specialists and geospatial experts with years of experience supporting NbS projects and advising on carbon standards.
We work closely with you to provide carbon potential and eligibility estimates that reflect the real conditions of your project under your chosen methodology.

Why Space Intelligence
Quality-checked Data
Our experts manually review the maps underpinning the analysis, which use the best available data for the project type and region rather than generic global layers.
Independent Verification
We derive the baseline, carbon and VCU numbers ourselves and compare them to the developer’s own claims.
Expert Red-Flag Review
A dedicated carbon scientist reviews project potential and baseline integrity, walks the client’s team through the findings, and runs deep-dives on request.
Defensible Reporting
Everything is consolidated into a written report structured for an investment audience, with methodology and accuracy appendices.
For a large asset manager, our Solutions Team independently reviewed a ~377,000 ha REDD+ project in Southeast Asia transitioning from VM0007 to VM0048. We surfaced no major concerns and confirmed the developer’s baseline and credit-potential figures.
