Intermediaries are brokers, aggregators, or platforms that connect project developers with buyers in carbon markets.

Sentinel Earth goes beyond brokerage — we develop, finance, certify, and match credits to high-integrity buyers with long-term climate goals.

OTC trading refers to direct transactions between buyers and sellers without an exchange.
