Autonomous, on-demand recycling logistics for Swiss municipalities. We bring recycling to the resident's door — and the data to the city.
We're not selling a deck. We're building a service that picks up recycling at the door, on demand, and hands the city household-level data it has never had before. The shape of the first pilot is set — the city and the neighborhood are still under discussion.
One neighborhood is enough to prove the operating model: the request flow, the routing, the door-handover, the data pipeline back to the city. Everything we'd test at scale, we can test here — without the noise of a launch.
We're in conversation with Swiss municipal collection services, starting in Greater Zürich. The right first partner is one already exploring on-demand and autonomous tooling — and there are several.
Most of waste-tech sells a single product into a procurement cycle and walks away. We run the whole chain — request, vehicle, handover, and the data the city actually wants on its desk Monday morning.
Residents request a pickup from a phone. The vehicle routes to the door, takes the bag, logs the type and weight, and moves on. No fixed schedule. No bins on the curb at 6 a.m.
We hold the licence, we run the vehicle, we own the contract with the city. Hardware partner in year one; our own integration from year two — under one operator.
Per-pickup type, weight, time, and route. The city sees what actually got collected, where, and when — at a granularity it has never had. Built to plug into existing municipal stacks.
Switzerland is one of the few countries where the law, the data mandate, and the lead operator are all moving in the same direction in 2026. That's the window we're walking through.
Operations of automated driving on public roads, with municipal exemptions, are explicitly permitted.
The federal environment office is tightening data requirements — the cities need granularity nobody is shipping yet.
Swiss collection services are evaluating on-demand and autonomous tooling. The procurement door is more open than it has been in a generation.
The whole pickup flow — request, route, doorstep handover — is running in a closed beta. Investors and prospective pilot partners can try it today.
Limited early preview. Built in Glarus. The same stack we'll run in pilot is the one you'll use here.
