What does Tao Climate do?

Tao Climate helps companies measure workplace AI emissions, reduce what is avoidable, and remove what remains with carbon dioxide removal. Its platform combines enterprise AI usage data, carbon and water impact modelling, satellite monitoring, CDR inventory and compliance-ready reporting.

Is Tao Climate a carbon accounting company?

No. Carbon accounting tools mainly help companies report emissions. Tao Climate closes the loop by helping companies measure AI-related impact, reduce avoidable emissions, match residual emissions with CDR procurement options, and produce credible reporting.

What is Tao Climate raising?

Tao Climate is raising a €500K seed equity round, with €250K expected from Enterprise Ireland. We are seeking strategic climate, AI and infrastructure investors.

Tao Climate | Enterprise AI Carbon Intelligence

The problem

AI is becoming an energy, carbon and water infrastructure problem.

Employees use ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Copilot and AI search every day, but most companies have little visibility into the climate impact of this new layer of work.

Data centre energy demand is forecast to grow at industrial scale.
Workplace AI usage is invisible to sustainability teams.
Carbon removal supply is fragmented, evidence-heavy and under-priced.

Primary product

Enterprise AI Carbon Intelligence.

Companies are adopting AI faster than they can measure or govern it. Our flagship product starts with a simple enterprise tool: a browser extension and dashboard that measure workplace AI use, estimate CO2e and water impact, identify reduction opportunities, match residual emissions with CDR procurement options, and support CSRD-ready reporting.

Chrome extension for workplace AI usage measurement.
Enterprise dashboard for team level AI carbon and water visibility.
Reduction nudges for lower impact AI behaviours.
CDR procurement matching for residual emissions.
CSRD ready reports for sustainability teams.

A usage dashboard for AI emissions, with CDR procurement built in.

Science

Industrial nature.
Planetary scale.

We don't buy offsets. We grow removal - and use satellite monitoring as one input to project evidence.

"Industrial nature. Planetary scale. Carbon evidence supported by monitoring."

15t CO2/ha/yr

Industrial Hemp

Aerial drone view, golden hour, massive geometric rows stretching to the horizon - a new kind of carbon farm.

Captures 15 tonnes CO2/ha/year. Grows in 4 months.

Blue Carbon

Mangrove Restoration

Coastal drone view, tangled root networks rising from teal water, green against blue at the ocean margin.

3-5× more carbon than terrestrial forests. Blue carbon.

Millennia storage

Seagrass Meadows

Underwater, sunlight filtering in shafts through the surface, illuminating green meadow below.

Stores carbon for millennia. 10% of ocean carbon burial.

Peatland Restoration

Misty dawn, rewetted bog landscape with still water pools reflecting a grey sky - ancient carbon locked below.

Peatlands hold 2× the carbon of all forests combined.
