Gainforest utilized Cherty in the XPRIZE Rainforest competition to showcase how their various data points and analysis elements contribute to their innovative approach in monitoring tropical biodiversity.

Their solution integrates large-scale eDNA, image, and sound data collection through autonomous drones and rovers, analyzed in real-time via advanced AI and a global network of Indigenous citizen scientists. Using Cherty's pseudograph capabilities, Gainforest clearly demonstrates the provenance and interconnection of data and analysis steps, ensuring transparency, reproducibility, and scalability in their biodiversity assessment methodology.

The Filecoin energy dashboard leverages Cherty to enhance the transparency, context, and verifiability of its energy use estimates, crucial for upholding the core Web3 principles of data transparency and interoperability. Filecoin, the largest decentralized storage network, relies on Storage Providers (SPs) who submit proofs to the blockchain to demonstrate secure data storage.

By integrating Cherty, the dashboard provides granular, verifiable estimates of electricity use, both at the network and individual SP levels. Cherty's pseudograph capabilities ensure that each data point and analysis step is clearly documented, allowing users to trace the provenance of energy estimates and easily verify the integrity of the information presented.

This integration makes Filecoin's energy interactions more transparent and supports the broader goal of accelerating global decarbonization efforts.

Cherty is built by Devonian, a tech company focused on building tool to support the discovery and application of new ideas.

Devonian is building data tools that support the discovery and application of new ideas in a verifiable, user controlled, and more easily reproducible way.

Spun out of Filecoin Green, a sustainability initiative for the Filecoin Network that emphasized verifiability, transparency, and reproducibility.

The founding team at Devonian, Alan Ransil and Caitlin Moore have worked together on applying web3 tools to scientific datasets at Protocol Labs since 2022.
