Carbon offsets are mainly bought by companies to improve their legitimacy. It's a business expense that creates limited value and no engagement. Imagine a world where investing in nature enables capturing more business value. Through research and experimentation, we have proven that planet positive actions can be a tool to unlock business growth.

We enable companies to make sustainability a revenue-driver instead of a cost. In a global first, we demonstrated that investing in Nature is ROI positive. Our A/B test with a leading Australian e-store saw a 16% increase in sales when customers see that the brand is planting a tree for every sale with Handprint.

Using Handprint’s integration in Tead’s ad platform, Uber Eats (the food delivery giant) dedicated a part of their ad spending to NGO Good Neighbors Japan providing “good rice bowls” to single-parent households in need. The results showed an ad recall increase of 9% by integrating Handprint into their ad platform. 

This space will have a clear winner most likely with a unicorn valuation. If Handprint reaches unicorn status, it would be at minimum a 53x return. 

We deliver the best dollar-to-impact ratio on the market: Our impact is up to 3 times cheaper and every pledged dollar goes where it’s supposed to.

Real-time reporting: We are 1 of only 2 companies who have achieved this. We couple this with a verification layer for higher trust.

Our clients consider our software as a growth tool to increase their revenues and improve their customer and employee engagement. Stakeholders are informed about real world impact in ways they understand and fall in love with the brand and their values.

Our "secret sauce" comes from the breakthrough scientific findings in the Ant Forest experiment. This experiment resulted in the most successful corporate reforestation project in the world. Our founders Ryan and Simon studied this company in detail and even wrote the "Best Sustainability Paper of The Year 2022" about this, according to The Financial Times.

According to some investigations up to 90% of the carbon credits sold have fraudulent claims. We scientifically curate a diverse network of impact that goes beyond carbon, and are the only platform addressing all aspects of ecosystem regeneration. 

Our impact projects are all measured for relevance, alignment, and urgency. Only projects that score highest for these metrics and adhere to our strict transparency standards are added to our marketplace. We have a waitlist with over 500 NGOs and only the top 20% of these projects qualify for our marketplace.

Commissioned by DBS (largest bank in Southeast Asia), the Sustainable Digital Finance Alliance, and The United Nations, our co-founders Dr. Schillebeeckx and Dr. Merrill wrote a report titled “Sustainable Digital Finance in Asia” that was discussed at Davos 2019. 

After 18 months of development and validation with leading bank security infrastructure, and meeting requirements of Financial Institutions compliance needs, Handprint is now 'Banking Industry' ready. We are launching this new vertical in January 2024 with a go-to-market partnership with Idemia, creating a difficult entry barrier for competitors that would like to enter this Industry vertical. We are the first in the world to close a regenerative banking deal, servicing 41% of all global bank cards*. The deal is worth $1M+ and will be priced into our series A in 2024.

Upon the close of our Series A round, we will swap the shares, and move all our revenues, expenses and operations from our current SG entity to the US. This will make the US corporation the holding company of all Handprint assets, IP, and shares.

Our clients consider our solutions to be a growth tool, as we've proven it increases revenue and stakeholder engagement. Handprint is redefining sustainability: From advanced verification to satellite imagery, our technology takes the lead in impact science, automation, quantification, and verification. Unlike other alternatives on the market, Handprint is the only platform that gives access to impressive data, visualizations and images directly from the ground. 

Our growth is actively increasing in velocity. As of today we have restored and digitally monitored 27M square feet of ecosystems equivalent to 5,745 basketball courts - the most in the world.
