ResourceLedger

About Us

Environmental science meets assurance rigour

ResourceLedger was founded to close the gap between the evidence companies produce and what auditors actually need — starting from the origin markets where it matters most.

Our Mission

Make sustainability easier

Commodity operators shouldn't need a team of consultants to prove their supply chains are compliant. We build the infrastructure that turns messy field data into structured, audit-ready evidence — so companies can focus on operations, not paperwork.

Evidence over assertions

Compliance should be provable, not claimed. Every output we produce links back to verifiable source data — so auditors can trace conclusions to evidence, not trust.

Built for origin markets

The hardest place to collect compliance evidence is where it matters most. We design for low-connectivity, multilingual, smallholder supply chains — not just head-office dashboards.

Deterministic, not probabilistic

Governance signals are produced by rule-based evaluation, not opaque models. The same inputs always produce the same output. AI risk scores are not legally defensible — our engine is.

Building tools that turn environmental data into evidence auditors can trust

A PhD in land restoration taught him what evidence regulators actually need. Two startups — one digitising ecological surveying at Oxford, another using satellite imagery to monitor land restoration and conservation — taught him how to build it. And years at EY, developing tools to validate evidence for audit teams and assessing rehabilitation funding, showed him exactly where the process breaks down: companies spending weeks assembling documentation that auditors still can’t trust.

ResourceLedger exists because the gap between what companies produce and what auditors need shouldn’t require an army of consultants to bridge. Roger moved to Thailand and built the platform from the ground up — designed for the origin markets where compliance evidence is hardest to collect and most critical to get right.

The path here

Founder — Oxford Ecological Surveying Startup

Built a digital tool at the University of Oxford to teach ecological surveying techniques, replacing paper-based fieldwork with structured data capture.

PhD Researcher — University of Queensland

Land restoration research. Learned first-hand what evidence regulators and auditors actually need from field data.

Founder — Envirometrics

VC-backed. Satellite data to monitor mine site condition, track land restoration progress, and develop natural capital accounting tools.

EY Assurance — Mining & Energy

Assessed rehabilitation funding, built audit evidence tools. Saw how much time was lost to documentation that should have been straightforward.

Founder — ResourceLedger

Moved to Thailand. Built the platform from the inside out — structured, auditor-ready evidence produced at the speed operations demand.
