ICE joins Isometric Series A as round hits $50M for AI certification
Isometric said Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), operator of the New York Stock Exchange, joined its Series A. With ICE and other new investors the round now stands at $50 million, bringing total funding across seed and Series A to $75 million.
FINANCE desk priority — same-day company primary with a disclosed $50 million Series A and a named Tier-1 market-infrastructure investor (ICE) backing an AI certification product for industrial claims.
Series A is growth funding after seed — not a first check, and not a later late-stage round. The same company page says the Series A was initially announced in June 2026. With ICE and other new investors, the round now stands at $50 million. None of those were printed.
Total funding, still company: across seed and Series A, Isometric says it has now raised $75 million. Seed is early venture funding.
Why certification, as the same page has it: electrification, automation, decarbonization, and data centers are driving industrial projects that need to show they meet regulatory, safety, and sustainability standards so they can find buyers, attract investment, and get permits. Certification is an independent check that a claim is true.
Product, still company: Isometric’s AI-powered platform is called Certify. It works with independent verifiers — outside checkers, not the company making the claim — to check every data point behind a regulatory, safety, or sustainability claim in hours rather than months. The company frame is turning unverified claims into verified assets. Agentic here means AI that helps run multi-step verification work with those human verifiers.
Prior proof point, company-attributed — not independently audited here: Isometric says it proved the model in carbon removal, where it has been contracted for over 16 million tonnes, and that it has expanded across industrial emissions, energy, fuels, and materials. A tonne here is a metric ton of carbon-removal work under contract, not a cash line.
Customers and projects named on the same company page — attribute, do not independently certify: Microsoft, Anglo American, Boeing, and JPMorgan Chase, plus more than 200 projects worldwide.
New Series A participants named alongside ICE, still company: Acario Innovation, BY Venture Partners, Dubai Future District Fund, Earth VC, Motion Ventures, One Capital, Plug and Play, Verb Ventures, and Legora founder Max Junestrand.
Lead and earlier structure, as the same page has it: AVP led the round, joined by Lowercarbon Capital, Plural, John Doerr, and Walter Kortschak.
Named voice on the company page: Eamon Jubbawy, founder and CEO. His quotes are color only and stay in Sources. ESG Today’s same-day wrap quotes Gordon Bennett, Managing Director of Utility Markets at ICE; that ICE voice is secondary coverage and stays in Sources.
Plain English for the rest of the card: Series A = growth funding after seed. Seed = early venture funding. Certification = an independent check that a climate, safety, or sustainability claim is true. Certify = Isometric’s AI-powered platform that helps run that check with human verifiers. Agentic here = AI that helps run multi-step verification work. ICE = Intercontinental Exchange, the company that operates the New York Stock Exchange.
