Sylvera measures biomass using lidar scanners, focusing on tropical rainforests. The company has scanned over 16 million trees in Gabon and Peru and aims to expand its dataset through further research. Sylvera provides reliable carbon data to private organizations and governments, including corporate buyers, banks, and consultancies, helping them invest in effective climate action. Unlike competitors, Sylvera does not sell carbon credits or accept payments from developers for project ratings. Instead, it generates revenue by selling access to its proprietary carbon data, which is developed in-house and peer-reviewed. This data is notably accurate, with estimates of above-ground biomass and carbon storage being up to 13 times more precise than traditional methods, thanks to advanced machine learning models. Sylvera's goal is to support informed investment decisions in the carbon market by offering highly accurate carbon data.
