Envision Blockchain Solutions builds applications for the Web3 space to help reshape and align today’s systems. The goal is to enable organizations to see the value in tomorrow’s Industry Vertical solutions. Within this focus, Envision has continued to make an impact to help projects improve emission and carbon offset token minting. They have done so by working on applications within the sustainability ecosystem. Partnering with Hedera, they built and maintained the open source Guardian.

The open source Guardian is a tool that includes best-in-class identity management and decentralized ledger technology (DLT) libraries for developers to get started creating digital environmental assets; such as carbon offsets and credits. By providing auditable and discoverable records that document the emission process and life cycle of these assets, we can better reduce fraud within the sustainable finance market.

Organizations and environmental projects need a framework to help assess the impact of their services, and mint carbon emissions and assets. The Guardian is the solution that better enables companies to align with their commitments in regard to sustainability pledges. The customization of this solution has left the onus of maintenance completely on the institutions/project owners.

Envision leveraged their experience as builders and maintainers of the open-source Guardian to create a hosted offering made for the ESG industry. The Managed Guardian Service (MGS) is their SaaS solution that allows application builders to focus on their projects and policies instead of spending time on managing and configuring the open-source version of the Guardian.

The process by which assets are created and documented remains consistent so that they stay transparent and verifiable by anyone. The ecosystem around the open-source Guardian is constantly developing schemas that capture and calculate the appropriate digital measurement, reporting and verification (dMRV) data and workflows to reflect initiative processes. With MGS you will now have the full benefit of all of this being managed in a reliable cloud infrastructure that is supported with a 99.9% uptime SLA along with a monitoring and alerting system that allows the detection of any issue before it manifests to users. MGS is widely covered by monitoring and alerts to allow their support teams to react, prevent, and analyze any issues that can happen.

The power of Envision’s Managed Guardian Service (MGS) will help make it easier for projects to initiate, run, document and validate the creation of discoverable minted tokens on Hedera. Giving project drivers the time needed to focus on the goal of reversing climate change.
