How waste intelligence works
Learn how we use artificial intelligence to capture and analyse waste data in the blink of an eye.
7 layers of detail
Each one of your waste streams has value. Here’s how we measure it.
The amount of each material in your waste stream, measured by mass or item count.
An accurate estimate of object mass, based on analysis of over 50 billion waste items every year.
The market value of your material, based on customisable rates for each material category.
What objects were used for, and whether or not they meet food-grade requirements.
An accurate estimate of item volume — which can still be calculated from partially obscured or layered items.
The brand and stock-keeping unit (SKU) of waste packaging, detectable even without labels.
An accurate estimate of the GHG emissions associated with your material.
What our AI can recognise
We cover 67 material categories of municipal waste. If you don’t see a category you’re curious about, let us know! Our recognition library is growing all the time.
