Sortrace lands $800K to improve waste sorting with AI-powered analysis
Sortrace combines computer vision, camera sensors and data analytics to help municipalities monitor household waste sorting. The AI technology, installed on waste collection vehicles, identifies waste contents and detects incorrect sorting patterns. This addresses a key challenge faced by Swedish municipalities that lack data on waste composition to assess recycling initiatives. The funding will support the startup's mission to make sorting issues visible to enable targeted municipal action.

- Raised $800K from Almi Invest, Antler, Gorilla Capital and angels
- AI-powered cameras on waste trucks analyze sorting accuracy in real-time
- Helps municipalities identify where waste sorting improvements are needed
