Company mission
To use AI for good to create a zero waste world.
Our take
Caring for our surroundings is arguably one of the most pressing issues of today, and it is crucial to use all tools at our disposal to meet this goal. Intuitive AI is helping achieve this by developing AI tech that helps enterprises manage waste more effectively. Its leading product, known as Oscar, can be added on to any existing multi-stream recycling bin turning it into a smart bin. It then senses what kind of waste users are about to dispose of and instructs them where to put it.
With so many large businesses committing to sustainability targets, a tech solution like Intuitive AI’s could be of great value in allowing them to meet their goals. The company was only founded in 2017 after graduating from the Creative Destruction Lab (AI Stream) in Toronto, yet it's already scored some major clients in the form of Merck, Nike, Visa and Tim Hortons.
Beyond its environmental impact, Intuitive AI’s data collection capacity could prove to be a big money maker. For example, Oscar can identify package branding – this kind of information could feasibly be monetized through partnerships with food & beverage outlets. If the company can capitalize on this, it should be able to see future success.
