ABOUT

This page describes the role, function, and operating principles of VerifiedClimate™ and the RegistryRail™ evidentiary infrastructure. It describes the role, scope, and operating boundaries of VerifiedClimate™ as neutral evidentiary infrastructure, and how VerifiedClimate Records are intended to be referenced within institutional, regulatory, and assurance workflows.
VerifiedClimate™ provides procedural infrastructure only. It does not certify, validate, assess, or interpret submitted content. The sections below outline the problem addressed, the architectural approach, the neutrality boundaries applied, and the applicable institutional contexts for the infrastructure.
‍
Throughout this page, the term VerifiedClimate Record refers to a timestamped, tamper-evident evidentiary artefact issued at the point of declaration and preserved under neutral custody.

1. Function, Purpose, and Role in the Ecosystem

VerifiedClimate™ is not a certification service, a marketplace, or a consultancy. It operates as neutral evidentiary infrastructure, providing issuance-time custody, timestamping, and tamper-evident preservation for climate-sector declarations and milestones.
VerifiedClimate™ performs a procedural role only. Its function is to timestamp, seal, and preserve climate-sector declarations and milestones as verifiable Records that may be shared by the submitter and circulated safely before detailed evidence is prescribed.
The infrastructure exists to support institutional-grade climate disclosures, not to interpret, certify, assess, endorse, or approve them. Formatting, custody, and permanence are provided. Judgment remains external.
Records are private by default. Each submitter retains full control over visibility and sharing.

2. Evidence Modernization and the Institutional Problem Being Solved

Legacy disclosure workflows rely heavily on static PDFs, spreadsheets, email attachments, and fragmented file exchanges that lack neutral custody and reliable time anchoring. As regulatory scrutiny increases, these practices introduce material risk into accountability chains.
When funding, audit, or regulatory review occurs months or years later, institutions often struggle to establish what was declared, when it was declared, and which materials supported it at the time.
VerifiedClimate™ addresses this institutional gap by fixing declarations at the moment they are made.
Each VerifiedClimate Record establishes a contemporaneous evidentiary reference that may later be supplemented, cited, or reviewed without rewriting history.

3. RegistryRail™ and Platform Architecture

RegistryRail™ is the underlying Evidentiary Infrastructure platform.
VerifiedClimate™ is the climate-sector instance of RegistryRail™, operating under climate-specific use cases, language, and regulatory alignment. RegistryRail™ is the underlying evidentiary infrastructure owned and operated by VerifiedClimate™, providing issuance, custody, timestamping, and citation functionality.
RegistryRail™ provides the core issuance, custody, timestamping, and citation architecture used to fix declarations at issuance. Sector instances such as climate, legal, procurement, or research apply this same infrastructure within their own disclosure and review contexts.
VerifiedClimate™ addresses climate-specific disclosure needs today, while RegistryRail™ is designed to be sector-agnostic

4. Core Capabilities

VerifiedClimate™ supports declarations across a broad range of climate-related use cases, including emissions summaries, carbon retirements, grant actions, policy adherence, and project milestones.
The system converts submissions into tamper-evident, digitally timestamped Records, issues a unique Live Record URL compatible with ESG reports and procurement disclosures, and produces a Reviewer Copy suitable for audit, funding, and regulatory files.
Optional forwarding to certifiers, regulators, or funding bodies is supported.
The system operates without logins, proprietary viewers, dashboards, or custom file dependencies. All processing is fully automated, with no human handling and no discretionary intervention.
Each new Record may reference prior Records, enabling an incremental and review-ready chronology of progress while preserving the original authoritative timestamp.

5. Neutrality, Custody, and Boundary Conditions

VerifiedClimate™ operates under a strict neutrality boundary.
It does not verify, certify, validate, interpret, or assess the truth or completeness of any submission. Certification, regulatory approval, and audit are performed exclusively by independent third parties.
By separating declaration format from declaration assessment, the infrastructure ensures that Records are presented without conflict of interest or role ambiguity. This separation is fundamental to institutional trust and long-term adoption.
Once issued, Records cannot be modified. Corrections or updates require the issuance of a new Record that may cite the original.

6. Regulatory and Standards Alignment

VerifiedClimate™ is designed to support evidentiary handling expectations commonly applied in climate- and sustainability-related regulatory and assurance contexts. The infrastructure does not claim regulatory compliance, sufficiency, or acceptance.
All interpretation, assessment, and regulatory determination remain with institutions, auditors, and regulators.

7. Institutional Applications

VerifiedClimate™ supports cross-sector institutional use within climate-related contexts. RegistryRail™ additionally enables deployment beyond climate where timestamped, tamper-evident records are required.
Common adopters include public sector bodies, banks and insurers, climate finance institutions, carbon market platforms, certification bodies, startups, consortia, and multilateral initiatives operating under complex stakeholder scrutiny.
The infrastructure adapts to the scale and risk profile of the disclosure. As Records accumulate and cite one another, organisations develop a visible and defensible chain of custody for their declarations.

8. Record Outputs and Evidence Handling

Each RegistryRail™ Record includes a standards-aligned timestamp and a cryptographic fingerprint (SHA-256) across the full submission, a Live Record URL under submitter control with no login required, and a Reviewer Copy suitable for diligence, audit, and regulatory retention.
Supporting documents are sealed against alteration. When added after an initial Milestone Record, they are cryptographically linked back to the original declaration and its authoritative timestamp.
Records may optionally be surfaced where consent and system-fit criteria are met.
No proprietary viewer, special software, or file manipulation is required.
Live Record URLs are provided to facilitate review and sharing, while the sealed Reviewer Copy is designed for offline retention in institutional working papers and audit files.

9. Pricing

Standard pricing is €100 per Record.
During the current institutional evaluation phase, Records are issued at €1 to support institutional evaluation and review.
Standard pricing applies in production deployment.

9. Operational Structure and Infrastructure Assurance

VerifiedClimate™ operates exclusively on ISO/IEC 27001-certified and SOC-audited infrastructure providers.
All issuance, custody, and delivery functions are automated. No local data storage or manual processing is involved.
Security controls include encryption in transit and at rest, cryptographic hashing at issuance, auditable logs, and strict access governance.
Where required, the Company can provide institutional assurance materials describing operational controls and relevant supplier certifications.

Trust Infrastructure, Not a Software Product

VerifiedClimate™ is neutral trust infrastructure. Its role is to timestamp, seal, and preserve climate-sector declarations as VerifiedClimate Records on the Evidentiary Rail.
By providing custody and permanence without judgment, the infrastructure enables institutions to rely on evidence rather than reconstruction, and on process rather than persuasion.
