Softbank Asia invests in CNT project, enabling “carbon neutralization”

Published

on

Softbank Asia recently launched a special investment fund of US $10 million to officially invest in CNT projects, boost CNT global carbon neutralization plan, giving full play to the function of carbon emission trading market, using blockchain technology to solve basic problems in carbon emission trading market and optimize carbon emission trading market. 

The CNT Foundation is building Carbon Trading Agreement — a public blockchain system based on Carbon Neutrality for Carbon emissions Trading. CNT Foundation believes that blockchain technology can better solve the basic contradiction in the carbon emission market. Similarly, carbon emission trading and carbon offset can alleviate the negative problems brought to the external environment by the blockchain PoW consensus mechanism. The successful application of blockchain in anti-counterfeiting traceability and supply chain management has fully demonstrated the technology’s powerful ability to communicate point, line and surface and maintain information integrity. 

Since the mid – 19th century, such activities have been the main cause of global warming. According to the current trend, even if countries actually implement the carbon emission reduction promised in the Paris Agreement, by 2100, the concentration of carbon dioxide will still exceed 580ppm, which is more than twice the  concentration at the beginning of the industry. In order to mitigate the impact of global warming and climate change, we must significantly reduce the emission of carbon dioxide. 

CNT’s commitment to a more open and transparent decentralized carbon market will help promote climate action globally and be more in line with the “bottom-up” climate governance spirit of the Paris Agreement. Carbon market data is stored synchronously by multiple nodes, and the process of carbon trading is decentralized, enabling faster participation in the new carbon sink market. Carbon sinks and chain assets, carbon trading and carbon neutral data flow can check at any time, improve the credibility, the most critical of the carbon market information transparency and double calculation problem will be solved, in the international and interregional carbon market, improve the content of authenticity, can attract more enterprises and organizations to participate in, Expanding the scope of participation in global carbon neutralization.  

“Carbon neutralization” – a rare global consensus and unified action. The data show that more than 120 countries and two-thirds of the economies have joined the great transformation of “carbon neutralization”, and the blockchain industry is also in the “carbon” storm. It is estimated that by 2030, the cumulative trading volume of carbon emissions may exceed 100 billion yuan, and the market scale of blockchain technology in global carbon trading will usher in a breakthrough of US $trillion. Therefore, every move of the blockchain industry has become the focus of carbon neutralization action. 

One of the significant changes that CNT’s blockchain data mechanism can bring is consistency and transparency, which can help global enterprises break through information barriers and make up for information defects on key issues; The second is high data privacy, which can solve the contradiction between business information confidentiality and environmental information disclosure, flexibly adapt to the disclosure strategy of key issues, and avoid risks under the regulatory system composed of government departments, financial institutions and third-party audit. 

For a long time, the consensus mechanism of blockchain as proof of equity (PoW) has been criticized. The problems of huge energy consumption and carbon emissions have been gradually recognized, and new ideas of technology have emerged one after another. (previously, the new CNT technology has been able to solve the problem of energy consumption in the form of data verification and recording between nodes, so that people need to enter carbon offset while networking the blockchain. The whole blockchain network achieves carbon neutralization and meets the requirements of environmental protection. 

The production and management data can not be tampered with after being linked, the time is accurate and the operator is accurate. On the one hand, data on the chain can help enterprises improve overall efficiency and resource utilization, control low-carbon or zero carbon production costs, transform and upgrade processes and technologies, form new market competitiveness under the goal of carbon neutralization, and build a low-carbon raw material supplier system; On the other hand, it can help enterprises achieve carbon accounting in line with standards and norms, so as to promote scientific emission reduction targets, implement energy conservation and emission reduction actions, and realize carbon leap. 

Softbank ventures Asia has managed more than US $1 billion. In recent years, Softbank Asia has focused on promoting carbon neutralization as a long-term undertaking. Encourage enterprises to strengthen technological R&D and innovation through investment, and take carbon neutralization as an opportunity to accelerate the transformation of low-carbon technologies. Softbank Asia responds to the global call for low-carbon, contributes to sustainable development, actively performs social responsibilities, and promotes the economic and social development in the direction of low-carbon, green and recycling through the combination with the blockchain industry. 

Softbank Asia, together with CNT, combines blockchain technology with the carbon market, constantly explores the potential of programmable carbon sink, improves the response of carbon sink assets in similar activities, increases the awareness of enterprise carbon emission reduction, and promotes the realization of carbon neutrality in enterprise business activities. Improve the adaptability of society to climate change, mitigate the impact of global warming, mobilize more people to actively participate in global carbon emission reduction, and assume the industrial responsibility of protecting the green earth.

KLOTA Launches Two Free Analysis Tools to Help E-Commerce Brands Improve Search and AI Visibility

Published

on

Sweden, 13th Dec 2025 – KLOTA AB, a Sweden-based digital performance and SEO consultancy, has announced the launch of two new free analysis tools designed specifically for serious e-commerce companies seeking stronger visibility, better performance, and clearer insights across search engines and AI-driven platforms. The newly released tools—the AI Visibility Analyzer and the Shopping Feed Analyzer—are currently available as free BETA services and deliver actionable results within approximately 10 minutes via email.

As search behavior rapidly evolves, e-commerce brands are no longer competing only for traditional Google rankings. Increasingly, consumers are discovering products and brands through AI-powered assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini. KLOTA’s new tools are built to address this shift, providing practical diagnostics that help online retailers understand where they stand and what to fix.

The AI Visibility Analyzer focuses on how well a website is seen, accessed, and understood by modern AI search engines and large language models. The tool evaluates critical factors such as AI-bot accessibility (including robots.txt and llms.txt), content clarity and readability, structured data, and core technical SEO elements. Based on this analysis, it generates an easy-to-understand AI Visibility Score ranging from 0 to 100, along with clear, prioritized recommendations that highlight the most impactful improvements.

“This is about helping companies prepare for the next generation of search,” said Anders Karlsson, Contact at KLOTA AB. “Many e-commerce brands are still optimizing only for classic search results, while AI assistants are already shaping how users discover information and products. The AI Visibility Analyzer makes this new landscape measurable and actionable.”

The second tool, the Shopping Feed Analyzer (Google Shopping Feed Analyzer ), is designed for e-commerce businesses actively running Google Shopping and Performance Max (PMax) campaigns. Poor feed quality is a common reason for disapproved products, limited reach, and underperforming ads. KLOTA’s tool performs an automated quality audit of a Google Shopping product feed , reviewing required attributes, product titles and descriptions, pricing accuracy, images, Google product categories, and overall compliance with Google’s specifications.

After the audit, users receive a detailed PDF report that includes an executive summary and a prioritized action list. This enables marketing and e-commerce teams to quickly identify errors, resolve disapprovals, and systematically improve feed quality for better campaign performance.

“Most feed issues are not strategic—they’re technical and fixable,” Karlsson added. “The challenge is knowing exactly where the problems are and what to address first. The Shopping Feed Analyzer removes that guesswork and gives teams a clear roadmap.”

Both tools are offered as free BETA services, reflecting KLOTA’s commitment to sharing expertise and helping e-commerce brands adapt to a more complex digital ecosystem. Once a website URL or product feed is submitted, the analysis is processed automatically and sent by email in about 10 minutes, making the tools accessible even for busy teams with limited technical resources.

While some information within the tools may be presented in English, the insights are designed to be universally applicable for international e-commerce brands aiming to compete more effectively in search, paid media, and AI-driven discovery.

With the launch of these tools, KLOTA reinforces its position as a forward-looking partner for e-commerce growth—bridging traditional SEO, paid shopping performance, and the emerging world of AI visibility.
