Charm Industrial is a venture-backed startup in San Francisco with a mission to reverse climate change and return the atmosphere to 280ppm CO₂ – otherwise known as pre-industrial atmospheric CO₂ concentration. To accomplish this, we’re working on both carbon removal and emissions reductions. First, we’re working on carbon removal through bio-oil sequestration. Charm uses plants to capture CO₂ from the atmosphere. We convert biomass into a stable, carbon-rich liquid and then pump it deep underground. This removes CO₂ permanently from the atmosphere, out of reach of wildfires, soil erosion and land use change. Second, we’re working on emissions reductions by decarbonizing ironmaking, which makes up more than 7% of global emissions. Come help us fight climate change — gigatons or bust!

We do this using advanced camera systems we build, that take pictures of every one of the billions of fruit in a farm. This data lives in our cloud data platform, FruitScope, that we've developed from the ground up to help farmers manage their crops with precision. Farmers across the nation use our industry-leading software to look at their data, make critical decisions, and command farming operations on a daily basis. Our technology is used today across some of the largest farms in the nation.
