Offstream is powering decarbonization by building the tools clean tech developers use to stay compliant and maximize revenue for their operations. We’re backed by Y Combinator, FundersClub, Collab Fund, and other great investors.
We’re live today with 10+ clean tech developers, helping them simplify the complex web of compliance across tax credit requirements, voluntary carbon market standards, and local, state, and federal regulations. The market for clean tech projects is rapidly growing fueled by $500B+ IRA incentives from the US, purchase commitments made by large corporate buyers, compliance market mechanisms, and the climate crisis. Offstream enables the launch and scale-up of projects that are critical to net zero.
Offstream was founded by Varsha Walsh and Zach Janicki.
Varsha (CEO) has several years of experience working in carbon markets from her time at Indigo Ag, along with various other short stints at carbon removal adjacent companies while she was completing an MBA from Harvard Business School. She is an experienced leader and extremely well connected in the space. Offstream is a result of her experience navigating carbon market standards and experiencing the pain point first hand.
Zach (CTO) has been building software at early stage startups (seed and series A) for the last 5 years before joining Offstream. Most recently he worked at Repool (YC S21) as the first engineer where he spent two years building a product from the ground up that supported $1m in ARR by the time he left to work with Varsha on Offstream. He has spent his career building products in regulatory heavy spaces (finance, insurance) and knows how to create greenfield products that support rapidly growing companies.
At Offstream we care deeply about the impact we are making on the planet and want our work to encapsulate a successful business and make a meaningful dent in the climate crisis. We work at the intersection of climate x capitalism.
Our culture is anchored around:
