The Problem

Carbon Offsetting is Broken for Everyday Commerce

Current carbon offsetting is completely detached from daily consumer behavior. Millions of mobile transactions happen across Kenya every day, and not one of them accounts for its carbon impact.

Invisible Footprints

Consumers have no real-time data on the carbon impact of their specific purchases. Whether it is groceries, fuel, or utilities, the carbon cost remains invisible.

Manual Friction

Offsetting today requires proactive, manual calculations and separate platforms. The result is low adoption, even among people who care about climate.

The Merchant Gap

Small-to-medium enterprises lack the tools to offer carbon-neutral checkout experiences to their customers. ESG compliance feels like something only large corporations can afford.

The Solution

The CarbonPesa AI Engine

CarbonPesa transforms the standard Paybill and Till experience into a climate-positive event. Our proprietary AI engine sits inside the transaction flow, calculating carbon intensity and automating offsets in real time, with zero friction.

AI/ML Carbon Attribution

Automated Offsets

The system calculates the necessary carbon reduction and facilitates it at the point of sale, sourcing verified carbon credits and retiring them instantly. Carbon-neutral before the receipt prints.
