SamaÚma offers a verifiable, investable service for ecological restoration. The platform integrates GPS-logged planting, camera traps, bioacoustics, drone mapping, and species validation, feeding into a single live dashboard. This approach ensures that funders can see and audit the restoration process, addressing the lack of transparency and trust in the current market. The company focuses on community-led restoration, ensuring local ownership and involvement. SamaÚma utilizes chemical-free regenerative protocols, locally produced natural bioinputs, community native-seed and seedling chains, and a geo-referenced dMRV platform for auditable metrics on survival, canopy, growth, biodiversity, and socioeconomic impact. The company has already restored over 1,000 hectares and planted 23.8 million trees, benefiting over 400 families. They are raising €1 million to scale their operations and technology.

Le projet en détails

Quel est le problème résolu ?

The current ecological restoration market suffers from a lack of transparency and trust. Restoration capital flows through layers of brokers, making projects difficult to verify. Survival rates are often self-reported and inflated, communities are sidelined, and carbon claims go unaudited. This leads to capital hesitation and continued land degradation. The sector's key bottlenecks are low plant survival at scale and a lack of technical transparency.

Comment est-il résolu ?

SamaÚma provides a vertically integrated restoration service using a field-to-screen platform. This includes GPS-logged planting, camera-trap and bioacoustics monitoring, drone canopy mapping, and auditable survival rates. The process is community-led, with local ownership and training. Key components include chemical-free regenerative protocols, locally produced natural bioinputs, community native-seed and seedling chains, and a geo-referenced dMRV platform for auditable time-series data on survival, canopy, growth, biodiversity, and socioeconomic metrics. This integrated approach ensures transparency and credibility.

Qui sont les clients potentiels ?

SamaÚma has already delivered restoration at scale — planting over 23.8 million trees and managing more than 1,000 hectares in active restoration, benefiting over 400 families. Its track record spans multiple biomes (Amazon, Cerrado, and Atlantic Forest) and several Brazilian states. The company delivers on behalf of leading global reforestation nonprofits, technology-enabled tree-planting and verification platforms, and corporate sustainability programs, with further initiatives underway with a range of partner organizations. It has also applied for a R$4.0M grant to fund its REIA R&D program.

En quoi cette solution est-elle différente ?

SamaÚma's key differentiators are its vertical integration, combining direct seeding, native-seed chains, chemical-free methods, coastal and terrestrial restoration, full digital dMRV, and community ownership. This holistic model, which no other competitor offers, provides auditable data and community legitimacy, setting it apart from competitors focused on single components or remote verification.
