Durable CDR · design platform

The design layer between a removal idea and a carbon credit.

Strata takes a project from first intake to methodology fit, a screening life-cycle assessment, and a base project-design document — grounding every decision in the requirements real registries will actually check.

Two routes, one project

Where would you like to begin?

Both routes share the same pathway and characterisation — start with whichever question is more pressing, and your answers carry across.

Project design route
PDD development
The hard questions, decomposed. Tick the eligibility criteria that apply, answer four questions to build your additionality case, and assemble a base project-design document.

Life-cycle route
LCA development
Configure your technology — CO₂ source, transport, energy — then build a staged inventory against a stamped, editable factor library and read out net removal and credit-volume potential.

Requirements-first
The registry's questions, up front
The project itself tells you what evidence each methodology will demand — decomposed into questions you can actually answer.
Traceable numbers
Activity data × stamped factors
Every emission is built from your own activity data and a sourced, editable factor library — no black-box coefficients.
Honest by design
A base design, not a shortcut
Strata produces a screening LCA and a base design to accelerate scoping — not a submittable PDD or certified quantification. It says so.
Strata is a design-phase scoping tool. Outputs are indicative and must be verified against live methodology standards and site-specific data before any credit claim or submission.
How Strata works commercially

Strata gets you to a credible design. Getting to an issued credit needs someone who's done it.

The free tool does the structured work well — methodology fit, a screening life-cycle assessment, a base project design and a gap register. What it can't do is judge your specific project: whether your baseline will survive challenge, whether your capex is realistic, which of your gaps actually matters, and which are noise.

Contextual judgement
Which of your open items are gating, and which can wait.
Evidence assembly
The investment analysis, monitoring plan and characterisation work a validator will actually ask for.
Validator-facing experience
Built by people who have taken projects through this.

The tool stays free. The judgement is where we come in. Get in touch →
