Koi Methodology: Overview
Last Updated: 2026-03-17
"If it works, will it matter?"1 Scaling climate solutions is hard. Koi delivers fast, transparent impact modeling to help move capital toward the solutions that matter most.
Koi is climate data infrastructure built for investing, created by climate scientists and engineers to translate climate physics into decision-grade data for allocators, managers, enterprises, and innovators. Built by scientists and engineers who have spent years translating climate science into usable data, Koi delivers rapid impact forecasts across technologies, portfolios, funds, markets, and user-defined scenarios.
While existing climate data infrastructure was built for backward-looking compliance and reporting, Koi models impact from the physics up -- producing forward-looking, asset-level forecasts that disclosure-based approaches cannot.

Trusted Data & Harmonized Analysis
Koi builds on established methodologies, unlocking their application at scale. Our auditable analyses combine life cycle emissions data, industry research, and market intelligence from leading sources. Built on the foundation of existing and emerging third-party frameworks and methods, Koi’s harmonized approach and digital models apply a consistent methodology, enabling fair comparisons and comprehensive investigations into each solution's climate impact potential.
Comprehensive Data Integration: We start with data from peer-reviewed LCA studies, industry reports, and authoritative databases to ensure robust impact calculations.
AI-Accelerated Analysis: Programmatic methodology application enables models that can be built upon, revisited, improved, and consistently scaled into comprehensive portfolio analyses across diverse technologies and markets.
Transparent Assumptions: All modeling assumptions are clearly documented. We cite our sources. We believe that this emphasis on practical transparency enables stakeholders to understand and validate impact projections more quickly and more rigorously without losing sight of the larger narratives. In summary, we build models as packages that can be unboxed.
This integrated approach provides investors and decision-makers with the reliable, comparable data needed to evaluate climate solutions and make informed investment and strategic decisions. How do we do it? Explore the Koi Docs to find out.
