Eco-Activators™ | Waste Lens™

Waste Lens™ is an AI-native platform designed to solve the global waste crisis by automating behavior follow-through at the moment of disposal. Instead of relying on decades-old recycling education or post-disposal management, Waste Lens™ tackles the root cause: wrong disposal decisions that drive $44.2 trillion in global economic damage each year. Using Vision AI and agent-led orchestration, users snap a photo of their waste, the AI identifies it, and specialized agents handle follow-through—diverting materials into recycling, resale, or replacement pathways. This system extends landfill life, reduces tipping costs, cuts emissions, and unlocks revenue by fueling circular and commerce markets. Unlike recycling apps that depend on motivation, Waste Lens™ builds agentic-native, concierge-style experiences with personalized incentives, ensuring scale and adoption. Its B2G2C model allows cities to save on landfill costs while unlocking a captive user base, turning waste from a costly liability into a powerful economic engine for sustainable growth.
