Founders storyCarbon credits aren’t working the way they should.They’re hard to understand, hard to trust, and often disconnected from what buyers and projects actually need. Rainbow aims to change that—starting from first principles.In 2021, we launched Rainbow out of a shared interest in engineered solutions to remove or avoid CO₂. We set out to answer a core question: what would it take to help these solutions scale?That journey led us to the voluntary carbon market—a system that, while essential, was falling short. As we dug deeper, it became clear that enabling real impact meant rethinking how credits are created, verified, and connected to buyer strategies.Rainbow was built to make the carbon credit market more transparent, technically rigorous, and aligned with both project realities and market demand.We work closely with project developers and field teams to ensure every credit reflects real-world impact.Now a growing team of engineers, scientists, and market experts, Rainbow became one of just 13 ICROA-endorsed crediting bodies globally in 2024—a milestone that reflects our commitment to trust, quality, and impact at scale.Principles01Design for impactWe're united by a shared ambition to build a sustainable society.
