Traders, exporters, importers, manufacturers and corporate groups each face a counterparty pricing their carbon number: a border, a buyer, a lender or a regulator. Cappi collects the evidence once and answers all four directions from one governed record, so the second commercial demand costs an answer rather than another data project.
Compliance value sits in the intensity, and the intensity holds only where every step of the chain is evidenced on actual data. An assumed step fails audit. A defaulted step is priced lower than the cargo has earned. Cappi evidences each step so the compliance surplus is accepted at its actual value and the premium reaches the party that produced it.
Priced from the real chain rather than the conservative default the regime applies when the chain is not evidenced.
FuelEU Maritime, ReFuelEU Aviation, EU ETS Maritime, the Dutch ERE and CORSIA, each against its own statutory comparator.
Each batch is claimed under one regime on the basis that regime sets. Nothing is summed across regimes, which is what keeps the claim standing under audit.
Default values are set so that no exporter gains by staying silent, which makes the border the one line in a landed price a competitor beats you on without producing anything differently. The arithmetic is public. What moves the bill is how far up the chain the data reaches. Cappi reaches the installation and one tier up at the precursor, where most of the figure is made, and the same evidenced figure settles both sides of the transaction.
On an illustrative 10,000 t case, 90,000 certificates on default values becomes 10,000 on evidenced actuals. 80,000 certificates never bought.
The exporter improves its price position and the importer surrenders fewer certificates, from a single evidenced figure. Cappi reaches the suppliers directly and coordinates independent third-party verification.
The EU regime is in force and the UK opens its own on 01-01-2027. The same rows answer both authorities rather than doubling the cost of compliance.
Investors, lenders, customers and regulators each ask on their own timetable and each price the answer. Most groups answer them separately, which is how a figure in a tender disagrees with a figure in a credit file and a figure in the annual report. The commercial exposure is not the reporting effort. It is the contradiction that surfaces when a counterparty puts the three side by side, and the terms that follow it.
VSME, GRI and IFRS S1 and S2 answered from the same governed rows, scoped to the schemes you actually need.
The same rows answer a customer questionnaire, a lender covenant and a tender submission, with no separate exercise and no risk of disagreement between them.
A structured draft and a gap report you can act on, prepared to the standard an assurance provider requires, every figure traceable to its input row.
The product carbon footprint has moved from the annex into the price. Procurement scores it in tenders, buyers carry it into their own Scope 3 and border positions, and lenders read it as operational discipline. An evidenced footprint is scored, shortlisted and priced ahead of an estimated one, and the commercial gap widens with each buying cycle. Cappi produces that footprint per product from data you already hold.
An audit-ready footprint per product, drawn from data you already hold, so the submission that wins the order costs an answer rather than a new collection exercise.
In CBAM goods the site and process data is already in hand, so the marginal cost of a product answer is the lowest in the market you compete in, and it cannot contradict your corporate figures.
The record built for a buyer this year is the record ESPR requires when your sector’s delegated act lands. A passport cannot be assembled from rows nobody kept.
Whichever direction brought you here, the collection behind it is the same collection. If a second commercial demand means collecting the data again, the architecture has failed. Cappi is built so the second answer costs less than the first, and the fourth costs almost nothing.
