The Problem

The Climate Expertise Gap

The climate economy is worth $10 trillion. But decision-makers lack access to the experts who can help them navigate it.

🏦

VCs Need Expertise

"Is this DAC startup's technology commercially viable?"

Traditional expert networks don't specialize in climate. Generalist consultants learn on your dime and take 3–6 months.

🏢

Corporates Need Compliance

"How do we quantify Scope 3 across 10,000 suppliers?"

Big 4 consultants charge $500K+ and take 6 months. Buying software still leaves you without methodology expertise.

🚀

Founders Need Validation

"How do we prove our tech to investors before they hire experts against us?"

No systematic way to get pre-diligence expert consensus. VCs find their own experts — who may be biased.

The climate economy is $10 trillion. But decision-makers lack access to the experts who can help them navigate it.

OVLP solves this.

Use Cases

Who Uses OVLP

Purpose-built workflows for each decision-maker in the climate economy.

The Challenge

"You're evaluating a $5M Series A in a direct air capture startup. Is the technology viable?"

Your investment committee needs expert validation — not a pitch deck and gut instinct.

Traditional Approaches

Hire McKinsey: 12 weeks, $250K, generalist consultants
Use GLG: Find experts yourself, no synthesis, hit-or-miss quality
Wing it: Make a $5M decision based on the pitch deck alone

The OVLP Approach

1We find 5 DAC specialists: former CTO, chemical engineer, DOE program manager, VC who invested in 3 DAC companies, carbon credit buyer
2You consult with each — 45–60 min calls, direct access, no filters
3We synthesize: Clarity Memo with consensus, risks, and recommendations
4Investment committee gets an expert-backed decision in 2 weeks for $35K

Example Questions We Answer

Is this company's technology commercially viable by 2028?
What are the top 3 technical risks in this investment?
How does this compare to the leading 5 competitors?

The Challenge

"CSRD requires you to quantify Scope 3 emissions across 10,000 suppliers. Your team has never done this."

The clock is ticking and generic consulting frameworks won't get you there.

Traditional Approaches

Hire EY/Deloitte: 6 months, $500K+, generic framework
Buy software: Expensive, still need methodology expertise
Hire internally: 12 months to recruit and onboard

The OVLP Approach

1We connect you to 4 specialists: former CSO who led CSRD at a Fortune 500, carbon accounting expert, supply chain decarbonization consultant, CSRD auditor
2You get practical guidance: data collection, methodology selection, supplier prioritization, common pitfalls
3Clarity Memo: step-by-step roadmap built for your specific situation

Example Questions We Answer

What's our credible pathway to Scope 3 quantification?
How do we prioritize 10,000 suppliers?
Which carbon accounting methodology should we use?

The Challenge

"You're raising Series A. VCs will hire experts to poke holes in your tech. What if you got there first?"

Scrambling to answer DD questions mid-process is the fastest way to kill a deal.

Traditional Approaches

Hope the pitch deck is convincing enough
Wait for VCs to find experts who may be biased against you
Scramble to respond to DD questions during the investment process

The OVLP Approach

1We find 3–5 domain experts before you start fundraising
2They validate (or challenge) your technology, market sizing, and timeline honestly
3You fix issues, strengthen positioning, and address concerns proactively
4You show up to VCs with expert consensus already — faster close, better terms

FAQ

Common Questions

Everything you need to know before getting started. Something missing? Ask us directly.

An Expert Sprint is a structured 2–3 week engagement where we match your specific question to 3–5 vetted climate experts, facilitate interviews and analysis, and deliver a Clarity Memo — a concise, decision-ready synthesis with expert perspectives and a clear recommendation. You get the intelligence you need without hiring a consultant or building an internal team.
Fewer than 1 in 5 applicants are accepted. Every expert goes through credential verification, a structured interview to assess depth and communication quality, and reference checks where relevant. We evaluate domain specificity — not just years of experience, but whether they've solved the type of problem you're actually facing.
Traditional networks (GLG, Guidepoint, Tegus) are generalist marketplaces — you find experts yourself, conduct your own interviews, and synthesize the output alone. OVLP is climate-specific and does the synthesis for you. We match, facilitate, and deliver a Clarity Memo. You spend hours, not weeks, and get a recommendation instead of raw transcripts.
The best fit is a high-stakes decision with a clear question and a real deadline. Examples: Is this DAC startup's technology commercially viable? How should we approach CSRD disclosure for our supply chain? What are the real barriers to scaling green hydrogen in Southeast Asia? If you can articulate the decision you need to make, we can help.
Sprints are priced based on scope and urgency. VCs and corporates typically engage at $25,000–$50,000 per sprint. Founder-stage engagements start at $15,000. That's a fraction of what a Big 4 engagement costs — and it's delivered in weeks, not months. Submit a request and we'll confirm pricing based on your specific question.
Yes. Structured expert interviews are part of every Sprint. We facilitate the sessions, but you participate directly and can ask follow-up questions in real time. Some clients also engage experts for extended advisory relationships after a Sprint — we can facilitate that too.
Most Sprints are completed in 2–3 weeks from kickoff. If you have an urgent deadline — an IC meeting, a board presentation, a regulatory filing — tell us in your request and we'll assess whether an accelerated timeline is possible.
The Clarity Memo is OVLP's core deliverable. It's a 10–15 page document that synthesizes expert perspectives, surfaces key points of consensus and disagreement, and closes with a clear recommendation relevant to your decision. It's written to be shared — with your IC, your board, your leadership team.
Data Products are subscription intelligence feeds built from aggregated Sprint insights — anonymized, structured, and queryable. Think: sector benchmarks, expert consensus on emerging technologies, regulatory trend analysis. They launch in Q3 2026. Join the waitlist to get early access.
Our network spans the full climate economy: direct air capture, green hydrogen, sustainable aviation fuel, carbon markets, CSRD and regulatory compliance, Scope 3 and supply chain, clean energy (solar, wind, storage), climate finance, and emerging technologies. If your question sits at the edge of our coverage, we'll tell you honestly before you commit.
We accept applications on a rolling basis. Accepted experts earn $500–$1,000/hr on a flexible schedule — you choose which Sprints to participate in. We look for deep domain knowledge, clear communication, and real-world experience solving the kinds of problems our clients face. Apply here.
Yes. Every engagement operates under strict confidentiality. Experts sign NDAs before any Sprint begins. We never share your question, your identity, or your Clarity Memo with other clients. Any data used in aggregate Data Products is fully anonymized and structurally transformed so it cannot be reverse-engineered.
