Canoe Foundation

The foundation prioritizes impacts for the investment committee and evaluates co-benefits of each project based on an open, transparent methodology. It enables Canoe to invest in impact beyond just carbon.

Our mission is to create an open, transparent, and trusted methodology to promote impact in every carbon offset project around the world.

Promote Transparency

We are building the world’s first open, transparent impact investor methodology and ratings system for carbon projects. Systemic analysis of impacts can accurately evaluate project impacts and avoid risks associated with thematic investment, mapping impact factors for each project based on academic research, technolgy, and big data.

Move Beyond
Co-Benefits

Any carbon project can look impactful if you look at only a handfful of “co-benefits”, but the foundation ensures Canoe Carbon is always focused on “impact-first” development of carbon offset projects and taking all impacts – positive and negative – into account.

Decrease Risk

We are building the world’s first open, transparent impact investor methodology and ratings system for carbon projects. Systemic analysis of impacts can accurately evaluate project impacts and avoid risks associated with thematic investment, mapping impact factors for each project based on academic research, technolgy, and big data.

Feed our AI Algorithm

Canoe’s research, ratings, and market intelligence are based on a data platform utilizing artificial intelligence to find impacts and risks in carbon projects that traditional analysis can miss. Our foundation’s research also helps inform Canoe Carbon’s AI systems to create better models over time in a constant feedback loop to provide better ratings, more transparency, and better intelligence.
