WasteFlow is a Swiss-based company that transforms the recycling industry by offering cutting-edge AI-powered solutions designed to optimize waste sorting and management. Our main offering is a smart sensor system that leverages computer vision technology to identify and analyze waste materials in real time. These sensors are strategically placed within recycling facilities to provide detailed data on the type, mass, and dangerousness of waste, facilitating safer, more efficient, and more profitable operations.

The data collected by our sensors is integrated into a user-friendly dashboard, enabling facility managers and operators to monitor key performance indicators (KPIs) such as recycling rates, machine efficiency, and operational challenges. This real-time insight allows facilities to increase their recycling rates, reduce downtime, and prevent safety hazards like fires caused by hazardous items such as lithium batteries.

WasteFlow operates on a SaaS model, combining sensor hardware with subscription-based software services. Our solution is scalable, affordable, and adaptable to existing infrastructure, which sets us apart from competitors. We aim to revolutionize the recycling industry by making it more sustainable, profitable, and efficient through the power of digitalization
