What Bioledger does

BioLedger is a London-headquartered B2B SaaS company that provides traceability and compliance software for the sustainable biofuel supply chain. The platform serves farmers, waste collectors, traders, and biofuel producers by digitizing chain-of-custody evidence from point of origin through to certified biofuel output, addressing regulatory requirements under EU RED II and the US EPA Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS). Its product suite comprises a web application for dashboard and stock management, a mobile application for first collectors to capture evidence at the point of origin, an Automated Mass Balance Software module, and an Independent Record Keeper for anonymized EPA compliance reporting. The platform is built on AWS and Google Firebase infrastructure with GDPR-compliant data hosting in Ireland using TLS 1.2 encryption and daily backups.

BioLedger's core differentiator is its claimed status as the only service provider connected to the European Commission's Union Database for Biofuels (UDB), enabling automated regulatory data exchange for mass balance and Proof of Sustainability workflows. The company also supports compliance with voluntary certification schemes including ISCC, RSB, KZR, 2BS, and REDCert. The founder and CEO, Patrick Lynch, brought ten years of international supply chain compliance experience from Greenergy, working across more than 50 countries.

The business operates on a subscription-based SaaS revenue model with quote-based pricing via a consultative enterprise sales motion (demo-led). Distribution is direct to enterprise biofuel producers and traders, with mobile-app deployment to first collectors in the supply chain. BioLedger holds partnerships with the Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership, MIT Sloan, RSB, 2BSvs, ewaba, and Techstars. Only $120,000 in funding (Techstars, March 2022) has been disclosed, and operations have expanded to Ireland, the United States, Ghana, and China.

Core offering

Bioledger provides a B2B SaaS traceability and compliance platform for sustainable biofuel supply chains, replacing paper receipts and spreadsheets with automated mass balance software directly connected to the European Commission's Union Database for Biofuels (UDB). The platform includes a web application for dashboards and stock management, a mobile app that captures evidence of waste collection at the point of origin, and an Independent Record Keeper for US EPA Renewable Fuel Standard compliance, enabling biofuel producers, traders, and first collectors to meet EU RED II, EPA RFS, and voluntary scheme requirements.

Product overview

BioLedger offers a unified platform combining a web application and mobile application for end-to-end traceability of sustainable biofuels, designed to serve farmers, waste collectors, traders, and biofuel producers. The platform consists of five integrated components: the Web Application for dashboard and stock management, the Mobile Application for first collectors to capture evidence at origin, the Automated Mass Balance Software for EU RED II compliance connected to the Union Database, the Independent Record Keeper for EPA RFS compliance in the US market, and comprehensive Support Services covering onboarding, training, and technical assistance. Together these products enable compliance with both EU and US biofuel regulations while digitizing paper-based processes throughout the supply chain.

Products and services

• BioLedger Web Application A browser-based platform providing dashboard, stock management, and receipt tracking views for managing sustainable biofuel traceability, EU compliance documentation, and supply chain visibility from origin to consumer. Built for biofuel producers, traders, and aggregators that need to oversee mass balance, stock movement, and compliance reporting across their operations.
• BioLedger Mobile Application A mobile app for first collectors — farmers, drivers, and waste companies — to capture, record, and securely submit evidence of waste collection at the point of origin, with route tracking and three-way communication between administrators, drivers, and restaurants or depots. Designed for field operators participating in the biofuel feedstock supply chain.
• Automated Mass Balance Software Software module that replaces paper receipts and complex spreadsheets for tracking biofuel mass balance, compliant with EU RED II and voluntary certification schemes (ISCC, RSB, KZR, 2BS, REDCert), and connected to the European Commission's Union Database for Biofuels (UDB). Built for biofuel producers and traders that must demonstrate mass balance and sustainability claims to EU regulators.
• Independent Record Keeper A compliance tool for EPA traceability that anonymously stores, tracks, validates, and aggregates evidence of food waste collection to demonstrate compliance with EPA Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) regulations while protecting proprietary sourcing information. Designed for US-based biofuel producers and food waste aggregators.
• Bioledger Expert Support Services Comprehensive support services bundled with the platform that include onboarding and compliance advisory, technical and customer support, a training portal, data management and security services, and continuous improvement assistance for customers transitioning from paper and spreadsheet workflows.

Direct peers

• Circulor: Circulor provides supply-chain traceability and ESG compliance software, including for batteries and raw materials. It is directly comparable to Bioledger in offering digital chain-of-custody evidence capture and regulatory-grade traceability across complex multi-tier supply chains.
• Sourcemap: Sourcemap is a supply-chain mapping and traceability platform used by manufacturers and brands to document supplier networks and ESG claims. Like Bioledger, it sells B2B SaaS for collecting origin evidence and producing compliance disclosures for regulated supply chains.
• FoodLogiQ (by LoginEKO): FoodLogiQ provides traceability, supplier management, and food safety compliance software. While focused on food rather than biofuels, it overlaps with Bioledger in digitizing first-mile evidence capture, audit-ready recordkeeping, and regulatory compliance workflows.
• OriginTrail: OriginTrail provides decentralized knowledge graph and traceability infrastructure for supply chains, including sustainability applications. It competes with Bioledger in offering verifiable chain-of-custody data for regulated commodities and ESG reporting.

Broad incumbents

• TraceLink: TraceLink is a large, established supply-chain serialization and compliance network serving pharmaceutical and other regulated industries. It is comparable to Bioledger as a compliance-driven SaaS platform connecting supply-chain participants to regulatory databases, though at far greater scale.
• SAP: SAP offers enterprise supply-chain management software used by large energy and commodity companies, including sustainability modules. As a broad incumbent, it represents the risk of a large platform bundling biofuel-specific traceability functionality alongside its existing ERP footprint.

Emerging players

• Minespider: Minespider offers blockchain-based supply-chain traceability and ESG compliance, initially focused on raw materials. It is comparable to Bioledger as an emerging traceability platform targeting regulated commodities with audit-ready evidence of origin.
• Verifik8: Verifik8 provides digital sustainability and traceability solutions for agricultural and biofuel supply chains, with a focus on smallholders in Southeast Asia. It overlaps with Bioledger in serving the biofuel compliance market, particularly for waste-based and feedstock producers.
• ClearTrace: ClearTrace provides energy and renewable-attribute tracking software, including for renewable fuel credits. It is comparable to Bioledger as a SaaS platform that certifies the origin and chain-of-custody of regulated environmental commodities.

Others

• Better Biomass (2BS): 2BS is a voluntary sustainability certification scheme for biomass and biofuels that Bioledger partners with for EU compliance. It is included as a peer because it operates in the same regulatory ecosystem and could conceivably extend into software-enabled traceability for its certified members.
