84% of carbon credits have no impact.
We promise to guide you to the 16% that do.

Carbon credits are a powerful tool in the fight against climate change, when done right. Our 600+ datapoint AI Quality Framework eliminates low-quality projects and greenwashing while maximising climate impact.

German companies unknowingly spent over €100M on low-impact climate projects.

68% of DAX40 companies bought carbon credits that failed to deliver real impact. Many of these companies have already faced greenwashing accusations. For the rest, it’s only a matter of time.

At Senken, our promise is clear: Eliminate the risk of low-quality credits by offering only the top projects on the market. With rigorous checks, robust data, and transparent reporting, every credit you purchase is proven to deliver real emissions reductions or removals and supports your path to net zero.

How We Deliver on Our Promise: A Five-Stage Verification Process

1
Basic Project Details
31 data points
We confirm a project’s registry, methodology, location, and foundational documentation. Any red flags here end the conversation before it starts — ensuring only legitimate projects enter our pipeline.
2
Carbon Impact
350 data points
We dig into additionality: What would have happened if the the project didn't take place? Our AI models cross-reference historical data and geospatial imagery to confirm the project’s baseline and measure real gains. We also test for Leakage (shifting emissions elsewhere) and Permanence (the project’s ability to withstand disruptions like wildfires or political instability).
3
Beyond Carbon
105 data points
True climate solutions do more than cut carbon. We review how the project affects local water sources, soil health, biodiversity, and community livelihoods. If it helps achieve UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), so much the better.
4
Reporting Process
90 data points
This stage checks whether data collection is transparent, ongoing, and verifiable — often with third-party digital MRV (Measuring, Reporting, and Verification) tools. Regular updates prove the project’s impact isn’t just a one-time claim.
5
Compliance & Reputation
78 data points
Even a technically sound project can tarnish your brand if it’s accused of wrongdoing. We verify alignment with the ICVCM’s Core Carbon Principles, check for compliance with European CSRD mandates and comb through public records and press coverage to catch any potential corruption, compliance violations, or emerging controversies.

We filter out 95% of projects on the market, leaving only the top 5% for your portfolio
