veritree tracks and verifies reforestation projects using advanced technology and on-the-ground monitoring. It connects mission-driven companies with nature-based solutions and cutting-edge technology to restore ecosystems with enhanced transparency and trust.

We created veritree to make nature investments reliable and simple. By leveraging advanced technology, ground monitoring, and fostering a community of changemakers, we create a real, long-lasting and meaningful impact that is good for the planet, ecosystem and local communities. For more information, check out Our Story.

veritree is a for-profit business. We work with planting organizations across the globe to fund the purchase of seeds, operate nurseries, conduct planting work, provide training to the local farmers, and protect the planting site to ensure high survival rate.

veritree has planted more than 55M verified trees since its inception.

veritree collaborates with a global network of trusted planting organizations to restore ecosystems. To see the specific locations of our projects, you can explore our Projects. This provides detailed information about the regions where we're working, the types of trees being planted, and the positive impact on biodiversity, climate and local communities.

When evaluating and deciding where to establish our next project, veritree's quality assurance process revolves around two key pillars: due diligence and adherence to veritree’s in-house protocol for data collection, monitoring and evaluation. The comprehensive due diligence process ensures the project's feasibility, sustainability, and overall impact.
Our goal is to co-create projects that drive substantial impact alongside NGOs with whom we can establish long-lasting and deep partnerships.

Reforestation helps fight climate change by sequestering carbon dioxide, stabilizing soil, and enhancing water cycles. It benefits local communities by creating jobs, promoting ecotourism, and providing protection against natural disasters, thus fostering economic growth and environmental resilience.

veritree's Science team has developed carbon sequestration models based on existing forestry science, ground-based sensors, plus novel use of LiDAR and geospatial analysis. Variables considered include species planted, forest type, region, site index and tree survivability. Carbon sequestration is calculated per hectare, considering above-ground, below-ground, and soil carbon. When primary data is unavailable, conservative secondary data is used. Site-level data is used to validate estimates, and partnerships with academics are yielding continuous improvement of our methods. For more information on carbon, check out veritree's Carbon Methodology.

veritree collaborates closely with local communities to ensure the long-term health and prosperity of newly planted trees. With our advanced technology for monitoring and ongoing support, local communities play in active role in monitoring and reporting processes, leading to a shared commitment for maintaining the vitality and resilience of the ecosystems for generations to come.

veritree provides tracking for each planting session (tracking and evidence from planting sessions varies by planting site, but typically includes geo-tagged images, videos, planter paths, and points of interest.) veritree also conducts survivability reports on random plots. That's why we collaborate with both corporate and local planting partners throughout the whole process, adding remote sensing like satellite imagery from year five onward to monitor long-term forest growth.

We aim to make the onboarding process as smooth and simple as possible, and in most cases new partners are set up in 10 days or less.

Coordinating a live supply chain and planting sites all across the globe can be complex, at the very latest all trees will be planted within 18 months of a contribution being made. Most trees are planted sooner than that, but we are bound by the seasonality at each site and time planting to ensure the best chance of survival.
