Which should you choose?
If your priority is verified, visible impact — carbon you can certify, trees you can trace to a GPS point and a satellite image, and a story your customers and stakeholders can actually see — Evertreen is the stronger fit.
If you simply want a fast, low-effort way to embed climate action behind a familiar consumer brand, Ecologi does that well. And because Evertreen also offers an API and e-commerce integrations, you don't have to trade traceability for convenience.
