The startup offers AI (artificial intelligence) and IoT (internet of things)-based solutions that help companies achieve zero emissions targets. The integrated Jejakin platform allows companies to carry out emission calculations from operational activities. It makes it easier to determine, execute, and report their sustainability plans, including nature-based and carbon-related projects, thus helping companies reduce their emissions.
The climate tech venture provides three main products: CarbonIQ, CarbonAtlas, and CarbonSpace.
CarbonIQ, the carbon accounting platform, assists businesses in calculating their operational emission footprint of all scopes (Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3).
At the same time, CarbonAtlas is the monitoring platform that utilizes a remote sensing technology stack of satellites, IoT sensors, and mobile apps to verify the credibility of climate programs engaged by businesses through on-ground checks. It monitors more than 1 million trees that have been planted together with Jejakin’s clients and partners across Indonesia, allowing users to get visibility on the positive impacts the project has brought to the area, such as carbon sequestration, soil & air quality, and biodiversity index.
CarbonSpace, on the other hand, is Jejakin’s integration app connected to CarbonIQ and CarbonAtlas, allowing businesses and their stakeholders to contribute directly to climate actions.
