The context (“Why Gravity, why now?”)
Carbon accounting is a complex domain, and products in the space thrive or die based on their data model. We have the best product because we can automate the most; we can automate the most because we have the best data model. Taste is the moat. Because our domain model is simpler and more powerful, our agents are able to automate increasing swaths of carbon accounting tasks, freeing up more resources to build the engine. The flywheel is turning.
Further, a series of early technical decisions have allowed us to keep the team lean and high-leverage: everything is Dockerized, all logic lives on the server, we have static typing over the wire, we’re API-first, pattern driven codebase, modular monolith, and state lives in very few places.
The world also needs what we’re building more than ever. AI demand is driving dirty energy generation back up, even as solar has recently become cheaper than natural gas. Beyond compliance and reporting, our customers look to us to help them navigate the unstable energy landscape of 2026. Don’t just take our word for it: despite the political environment, we have grown the business almost 30x in 3 years and hope to do it again.
The team is senior and full-stack. Everybody spikes high for agency, urgency, and customer obsession. Code review is optional; quality is mandatory. We believe small, conviction-driven teams adopting frontier tools will increasingly outperform larger, more conventional organizations. We are lucky and work hard. (but also have families and pastimes!). Fun trivia: my cofounder’s great-uncle started the EPA.
