Supercritical operates a marketplace that sources, vets, and sells permanent carbon dioxide removal across multiple pathways, including biochar, enhanced rock weathering, direct air capture, mineralization, and BECCS. The company combines rigorous scientific vetting—led by Director of Climate Science Dr. Mai Bui, whose protocol rejects 88% of assessed projects—with marketplace data to create high-quality CDR portfolios. Supercritical has facilitated nearly 2 million tonnes of carbon removal to date, highlighted by a ten-year, one-million-tonne biochar offtake that is the largest U.S. biochar deal so far. With corporate demand for removals rising ahead of expected compliance markets, the company is expanding a CDR supply development program to partner with suppliers from initial deployment to megatonne-scale offtakes. Supercritical aims to bring new supply online and unlock financing needed to build the physical infrastructure required to meet global net-zero goals. The firm also focuses on producing audit-ready MRV, lifecycle assessments, and commercial structures that satisfy corporate due diligence.
