Why TrueCarbon

What makes TrueCarbon the best dMRV for cookstoves

Serial-linked distribution means a stove can never be double-counted across households or rounds.

Usage surveys run on a schedule your field team can actually keep, not a single baseline estimate.

Durability follow-ups are a native workflow, not a manual spreadsheet exercise nobody owns after year one.

What to look for in dMRV software for cookstove distribution programmes

Not every dMRV platform captures the specific evidence cookstoves verification demands. Here's what TrueCarbon covers out of the box.

Household enrolment with duplicate detection

Name-similarity and GPS-proximity checks flag repeat enrolments before they inflate your distribution count.

Serialised stove tracking

Every stove's serial number is linked to a specific household at the point of distribution, with photo evidence.

Scheduled usage surveys

Field teams run structured usage-rate surveys on a schedule, not a one-off estimate baked into the PDD.

Durability & continued-use checks

Follow-up visits confirm the stove is still in the household and in use, building the evidence trail AMS-II.G monitoring expects.
