Ad-carbon emission data for your stack and AI agents

A read-only REST API for the measured carbon footprint of digital advertising: per impression, by publisher, by format. Ready for CSRD exports.

The Lumotraq Reporting API
The Lumotraq REST API returns the measured carbon footprint of digital advertising as machine-readable JSON — about 0.84 g CO₂e per display impression and 1.24 g per video — with per-publisher and per-format breakdowns for both carbon and water, and CSRD-ready reporting. It's read-only, served over OpenAPI 3.1 at api.lumotraq.com, and discoverable by AI agents.

Measure

Per-impression CO₂e for the advertising you serve or verify — the ad-tech emissions, measured, not estimated from spend.

Benchmark

Compare against publisher and format baselines and an industry benchmark — see where a campaign's footprint concentrates.

Report

Pull CSRD/ESRS-ready figures — carbon (E1) and water (E3), plus the trajectory over time — straight into disclosures or client reports.

0.84 gCO₂e / display impression
1.24 gCO₂e / video impression
Measured on the live electricity grid — not estimated from spend.

Every figure traces to a transparent, framework-aligned method. We're pursuing alignment with the Ad Net Zero Global Media Sustainability Framework, the GHG Protocol Scope 3 standard, and IAB Tech Lab measurement guidelines. Coverage today: display and video. See the methodology

What does the Lumotraq ad-carbon API do?

It returns the measured carbon and water footprint of digital advertising as JSON: per-impression CO₂e, per-publisher and per-format breakdowns, attribution, and CSRD/ESRS-ready reporting. It's a measurement and reporting layer — read-only, never part of the bid.

How do I authenticate to the Lumotraq API?

Public aggregate endpoints (industry baselines, KPI summaries, quarterly reports) need no key. Per-account reporting uses an x-api-key header tied to your account, with weekly request limits by plan.

Can AI agents call Lumotraq?

Yes — the API is described in OpenAPI 3.1, listed in a .well-known/api-catalog, and documented for agents, so autonomous systems can discover and query ad-carbon data directly.

How is the Lumotraq API priced?

Consumption-based — you pay per measured impression, not per token, with Buy-Side and Sell-Side tiers. Request access for specifics.
