Our mission is to power the shift toward zero waste by turning everyday waste data into meaningful action.

Ecorithms, based in San Diego, provides advanced AI-powered waste compliance software that helps haulers, municipalities, and sustainability teams reduce waste contamination, support zero waste goals, and comply with local recycling regulations across the U.S.

Our flagship solution, WasteAID, uses computer vision to automatically detect contaminated waste, perform route-level audits, and identify non-compliant behavior during collection—without the need for hardware installation. The system tracks organics, recycling, and landfill streams, helping teams enforce proper sorting and reduce contamination at the curb.

Built to support California’s SB 1383 and similar municipal waste ordinances, WasteAID integrates with fleet systems and CRMs to recover missed contamination charges, avoid fines, and streamline compliance tracking for every account.

WasteAID also includes a full educational outreach engine—automated postcards, email alerts, and contamination heatmaps—to promote customer behavior change and increase recycling participation over time.

For organizations working toward zero waste, WasteAID turns compliance challenges into data-driven solutions, making it easier to meet local mandates, secure more contracts, and operate more efficient, cleaner waste systems.
