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. File the June announce, the ICE join, and the $50 million figure as Isometric’s. This desk is not inventing a valuation, an ICE ownership percentage, a check size, or a public listing plan. 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. File the $75 million total as Isometric’s. This desk did not add those rounds on its own; the company printed the total.

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. File that industrial-build-out context as Isometric’s. This desk did not audit a permit file.

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. File that Certify picture as Isometric’s. This desk did not run a certification and is not saying Certify replaces regulators.

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. File the 16-million-tonne line and that expansion as Isometric’s. This desk did not audit a registry or treat those tonnes as audited financials.

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. File those names and that project count as Isometric’s. This desk did not interview the customers or count the projects.

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. File those names as Isometric’s. This desk is not inventing check sizes.

Lead and earlier structure, as the same page has it: AVP led the round, joined by Lowercarbon Capital, Plural, John Doerr, and Walter Kortschak. File that lead-and-joiners list as Isometric’s prior/lead structure. This desk did not see a cap table.

Named voice on the company page: Eamon Jubbawy, founder and CEO. File the name and title as his, via Isometric. 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.

PRIMARY here: Isometric’s 15 Sep 2026 company post — Tier A PRIMARY company source, the original record. ESG Today’s same-day wrap is Tier C corroboration, not the sole source and not a second originating newsroom. The ICE join, the June Series A announce, the $50 million round, the $75 million seed-plus-A total, the industrial-build-out certification context, Certify and the hours-not-months verifier picture, the 16-million-tonne carbon-removal line, the industrial-emissions / energy / fuels / materials expansion, the Microsoft / Anglo American / Boeing / JPMorgan Chase names, the more-than-200-projects count, the new-participant list, and the AVP / Lowercarbon / Plural / Doerr / Kortschak lead structure are company-attributed. Customer names, tonne/contract claims, and product speed stay company-attributed — not independently audited here. NOT claimed: a valuation, an ICE ownership percentage, that ICE will list Isometric, that Certify replaces regulators, independently verified tonne or customer figures, that this desk tested Certify or saw a term sheet, a stock tip, or investment advice.
