Carbon Central, developed by Australian tech firm NoviQTech, is an enterprise-grade software platform designed to help large organizations manage the complexities of carbon accounting and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) reporting. The platform provides a unified, end-to-end solution for companies to measure, analyze, and report on their environmental footprint, particularly their Scope 1, 2, and 3 carbon emissions. It aims to replace disparate spreadsheets and manual data collection methods with a single, auditable system of record.
The platform is built on the Hedera network, leveraging its technology to bring a high level of integrity and trust to the ESG data management process. A key feature of Carbon Central is its use of the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) to create an immutable and verifiable audit trail. As enterprises input emissions data, supplier information, and other critical ESG metrics into the platform, a cryptographic hash of that data is submitted to the Hedera public ledger. This process provides a tamper-proof timestamp and a transparent, auditable record that can be securely shared with and verified by regulators, investors, and other stakeholders.

Trustury, developed by Meeco, is a specialized platform designed to enhance the transparency and auditability of tokenized assets on the Hedera blockchain network, particularly those focused on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria. It functions as an open-source interface that enables users to manage, visualize, and securely share trusted information associated with tokens and decentralized identifiers (DIDs) on the Hedera network. The platform's primary role is to support the growth and adoption of Hedera's Guardian, a modular open-source solution for creating highly auditable and compliant tokenization workflows.
It provides a public-facing dashboard or "explorer" that displays tokens from across the Hedera ecosystem, allowing stakeholders to drill down into a token’s provenance and verify its adherence to specific standards or policies, such as ESG requirements.
Trustury integrates deeply with Hedera's native services, using the Hedera Token Service (HTS) to fetch token details and its DID method for identity management. By providing clear visualization tools and a consistent mechanism for users to interact with Guardian-based assets, Trustury serves as essential infrastructure for building trusted, auditable, and sustainable digital economies on Hedera.
Dragon Glass is a real-time data streaming and analytics platform specifically designed for the Hedera network. It provides developers, businesses, and users with live, granular access to the vast amounts of data generated on the Hedera public ledger. This includes comprehensive details about transactions, Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) messages, Hedera Token Service (HTS) token transfers, and interactions with Hedera Smart Contracts.
Key features of Dragon Glass include robust real-time data feeds, which are delivered via APIs using protocols such as WebSockets or gRPC, enabling responsive application development. It also offers capabilities for querying historical ledger data, allowing for in-depth analysis and reporting. Users can filter data streams or subscribe to specific events, accounts, or topics relevant to their needs.
Dragon Glass supports a numerous use cases ranging from powering dApp front-ends and analytics dashboards to enabling exchanges and wallet providers with up-to-the-second information. It empowers the Hedera ecosystem by making its on-ledger data more accessible, actionable, and easier to integrate into diverse applications.
