Tao Climate gives airlines and airports a live operating system for carbon compliance - CORSIA, EU ETS, CSRD - with verified removal, branded passenger certificates and real-time impact dashboards.
Airlines and airports wake up thinking about the same things: revenue pressure, sustainability mandates, greenwashing risk, CORSIA compliance, passenger sentiment. Carbon sits at the intersection of all of them.
Tao Climate helps airlines and airports turn climate pressure into a trusted customer experience and a new revenue channel. The platform is purpose-built for aviation - from ICAO-certified CO2 calculation to satellite-verified removal and blockchain issuance.
The next ancillary revenue category is not seat upgrades or lounge access. It's climate. IATA forecasts $144 billion in ancillary revenues for 2025 - 15.7% of total airline revenue. The airlines that embed climate seamlessly into their booking flow own this category. Explore AirOS - Tao Climate's white-label aviation intelligence layer.
590 airports across 91 countries hold Airport Carbon Accreditation. But accreditation without live data is a credential without a story. Tao Climate gives airports the tools to visualise, engage and publish their climate progress - in real time. EarthOS provides the verified carbon removal inventory airports need to meet their neutrality targets.
Carbon AI is the conversational intelligence layer across the Tao Climate platform. It answers the questions airline sustainability teams, airport operators and corporate travel buyers ask every day - without waiting for a consultant or digging through spreadsheets.
In aviation, a carbon claim without verification is a liability. Every tonne on the Tao Climate platform is monitored by satellite, certified by regulators, and recorded on-chain - permanently and publicly.
Each Tao Climate product can be deployed independently or as an integrated suite. They share a single data layer, single verification pipeline, and single reporting API.

Straight answers for airline and airport sustainability teams.
Tao Climate provides ICAO-certified CO2 calculations across 6,398+ routes, verified carbon removal credits with full audit trails, and reporting tools aligned with CORSIA Phase 1 requirements. Airlines can offset mandatory emissions through our vetted removal supplier network and generate downloadable compliance documentation. Removal is recorded on blockchain to prevent double-counting.
Passenger carbon programs are a proven ancillary revenue line. Airlines on Tao Climate's platform offer carbon removal at booking, on boarding passes, and post-flight. Revenue is split between the airline and verified removal projects. Airlines typically see 2-8% passenger opt-in rates. At scale, this represents meaningful per-ASK revenue with zero incremental fuel or infrastructure cost.
MRV stands for Measurement, Reporting, and Verification. Tao Climate uses satellite imagery combined with ground-truth sensors to measure carbon sequestration at removal sites near airports. Biomass growth, soil carbon, and biochar application are measured against pre-project baselines. Each tonne of CO2 removal is verified before being issued as a credit. ESA and Google have validated the methodology.
Carbon offsetting typically funds avoided emissions - activities that reduce emissions compared to a baseline but do not actively pull CO2 from the atmosphere. Carbon removal (CDR) actively extracts CO2 that is already in the atmosphere and stores it durably. Regulators, science bodies, and the IPCC consider removal categorically superior to offsetting. Tao Climate provides removal only - we do not sell offsets.
Airports use Tao Climate to measure terminal and ground operations emissions, supply verified removal credits to their carbon neutrality programs, and generate ACA (Airport Carbon Accreditation) reporting data. Tao Climate also connects airports with nature-based removal projects on or near airport land - turning airside green space into measurable carbon removal assets.
Tao Climate covers CORSIA (ICAO global offsetting scheme), EU ETS (European Union Emissions Trading Scheme for intra-EU flights), CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive for Scope 1/2/3 disclosure), and ReFuelEU (sustainable aviation fuel mandate reporting). The platform produces output aligned with each framework's reporting format.
