The Opportunity

VCM.fyi is a carbon market intelligence platform built for brokers, project developers, and corporate buyers. We provide pre-trade screening and post-trade monitoring across 11,000+ carbon credit projects from 6 major registries (Verra, Gold Standard, CAR, ACR, Isometric, Puro Earth).

The platform is live, fully operational, and growing. We have an AI-powered forensics engine that scans the entire carbon market weekly, a REST API with public documentation, and users actively engaging with the product. We're looking for someone to help scale the commercial side of the business.

This is not a job. This is a partnership opportunity for someone who wants to build something meaningful in carbon markets.

What We've Built
  • Full-stack intelligence platform covering voluntary and compliance carbon markets
  • AI-powered weekly forensics scanning 11,000+ projects across 100+ news sources
  • Harmonized data from 6 major registries, updated daily
  • REST API with full documentation for enterprise integrations
  • Buyer discovery tools for project developers
  • Portfolio risk monitoring for corporate buyers
  • Country-level policy tracking (Article 6, CORSIA, carbon pricing)

The entire platform was built solo by a technical founder, from data pipelines to API to frontend. The technology is solid. What's missing is someone equally driven on the commercial and growth side.

Who We're Looking For

We need someone who checks all of these boxes:

Deep Carbon Market Expertise

You understand the difference between voluntary and compliance markets. You know what Article 6, CORSIA, and ITMOs mean without Googling. You've worked in or around carbon markets and understand the pain points of brokers, developers, and buyers.

Proven Sales Track Record

You've closed deals before, ideally in carbon markets, climate tech, or environmental data/intelligence. You can point to specific wins and explain your sales process.

Builder Mentality

This is an early-stage opportunity. There's no sales team, no playbook, no inbound pipeline handed to you. You'll be building the commercial engine from scratch, alongside a technical founder who built the product engine from scratch.

Network in the Space

You have existing relationships with carbon brokers, project developers, corporate sustainability teams, or registry stakeholders. You don't need to start from zero.

Why Now?

The voluntary carbon market is at an inflection point. Regulatory frameworks (Article 6, CORSIA, EU CBAM) are creating unprecedented demand for trustworthy market intelligence. Buyers need better tools. Brokers need better data. Developers need visibility.

VCM.fyi is positioned to be the Bloomberg Terminal of carbon markets. The technology is built. The data is flowing. Now we need to put it in front of the right people.
