Revenue model

1. Direct Tree and Forest Plot Sales: EcoTree generates revenue primarily through the sale of individual trees and forest plots to individuals and businesses. Customers purchase trees at species- and location-specific price points, gaining ownership of the tree and a share in the timber harvest proceeds upon rotation.
2. Tree Subscription Plans: EcoTree offers recurring subscription plans allowing customers to regularly contribute to reforestation through periodic tree plantings, providing a recurring revenue stream for the company.

EcoTree operates an online platform that enables individuals and businesses to purchase individual trees or forest plots in sustainably managed European forests (France, Denmark, Germany), subscribe to recurring monthly tree plantings, gift trees, fund biodiversity restoration projects, and buy carbon credits generated from certified forest growth. Tree owners receive ownership documentation, certificates, and a share of approximately 2% annual return on investment when trees are sustainably harvested for timber.

Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• South Pole: Global climate solutions provider and large carbon credit project developer offering nature-based and technology-based offsets to enterprises. Overlaps with EcoTree's B2B carbon credit and corporate ESG business at a much larger scale.
• Ecosia: Berlin-based search engine that uses profits to fund tree-planting projects worldwide, with a large user base and brand recognition in the consumer climate space. Indirect overlap through consumer tree funding rather than direct forest ownership.

Emerging players

• Sylvera: Carbon credit ratings and analytics provider that assesses forest-based and other nature-based carbon projects. Adjacent but enables the buyer side of the same market EcoTree sells into, and could become a partner or competitor depending on vertical integration.
• Pachama: Tech-forward carbon credit marketplace focused on nature-based solutions with satellite monitoring and ML-based verification. Competes in the same corporate carbon procurement market but with a software-first model rather than direct forest ownership.
• Land Life Company: Dutch reforestation technology company using satellite data and the Cocoon planting technology to restore degraded land. Overlaps in the European reforestation services and corporate ESG market, with a different technological approach.

Direct peers

• Tentree: Canadian sustainable apparel brand that finances reforestation projects with each purchase and offers tree-planting certificates. Overlaps with EcoTree's consumer tree gifting and subscription model, primarily competing for eco-conscious consumers.
• Reforest'Action: French reforestation platform that finances and tracks tree-planting projects for individuals and corporations. Direct competitor in the French/European B2B carbon offset and tree-planting market, with comparable corporate ESG offerings.
• One Tree Planted: Nonprofit reforestation organization that plants trees globally through corporate partnerships and individual donations. Competes in the corporate tree-planting partnership space where EcoTree serves Artelia Denmark and similar enterprise customers.
• Treedom: Italian-founded platform enabling individuals and businesses to plant and remotely adopt trees in agroforestry projects globally, with photo updates and CO2 tracking. Closest direct competitor to EcoTree's tree ownership and gifting model, sharing the consumer ESG gifting use case.

Others

• Carbonex (Carbon Engineering / Climeworks): Direct air capture companies selling technology-based carbon removal credits to enterprises. Competes for the same corporate carbon procurement budget but with engineered rather than nature-based solutions, representing an alternative path for ESG spend.
