About Carbon Arc
Carbon Arc operates a next generation data platform where data owners list assets, and buyers consume insights on a pay-as-you-go basis, enabling tokenized monetization over bulk licensing. Unlike traditional marketplaces, you query what you need and pay for what you use, turning data from CAPEX into OPEX.
Already trusted by major institutions across finance, consulting, retail, sports, media, and entertainment, Carbon Arc is building the foundation for the model-driven economy. As model-driven economies expand, data will evolve like oil or electricity — ratable, reliable, and regulated.
Why Carbon Arc?
The alternative data market is broken. These systemic barriers keep most teams from turning data into decisions:
- Expensive: $80K data assets and $5M+ annual budgets have priced smaller operators and enterprises out of the market.
- Inaccessible: Accessing data requires specialized sourcing and engineering capabilities that can be hard to sustain.
- High-Friction: Navigating legal, compliance, and pricing across vendors creates major friction from data to decision.
Carbon Arc flips each of these on its head:
- Cheaper: Pay-as-you-go pricing replaces bulk licensing — consume only what you need, turning data from CAPEX into OPEX.
- Accessible: Pre-structured, query-ready insight streams eliminate the need for dedicated sourcing and engineering teams.
- Low-Friction: One platform, 50+ suppliers, unified legal and compliance — from data to decision without the overhead.
What We Do
Carbon Arc has built a proprietary platform — acting as a counterparty, not a data reseller.
Ingest
Through multi-channel sourcing, we acquire unique data assets and bring them onto the platform, with new assets added each month.
Structure
We map all entities to a unified, proprietary ontology — making every data asset interoperable. Each new data asset strengthens the graph, improving accuracy, reliability, and discovery. Integration becomes invisible while insights become inevitable.
Deliver
Our product meets clients where they are — through four access points:
- MCP Server — query data in natural language through AI assistants
- Web Application — a no-code interface for exploring and analyzing data
- Python SDK — programmatic access for custom workflows and analysis
- Block Data Delivery — for large-scale analyses
