Scrapp is excited to announce the launch of a new partnership with AI company, ArtifexAI! Their groundbreaking AI technology is fueling the growth of sustainable city development, through unique environmental insights not yet to be unlocked at the local level. Taking historical, unstructured data from a multitude of verified sources, brews the opportunity for AI to connect the dots and create valuable analytics that will dramatically support urban development, with environmental decision-making at its core.

Russ Wilcox, ArtifexAI's Co-founder and CEO said, "At ArtifexAI, we are thrilled to be partnering with Scrapp to unlock the vast troves of recycling and sustainability data buried within local municipalities. By digitizing and structuring this information, we are excited to super-charge Scrapp's innovative recycling sorting platform and make it easier than ever for community members to recycle responsibly". This sentiment was echoed by Scrapp's Co-founder and Chief Sustainability Officer, Mikey Pasciuto, who has been working closely with ArtifexAI throughout the partnership, "Working with Artifexai has been incredibly valuable to our team at Scrapp. They've helped us optimize our data workflows and dramatically speed up our operations to save time and capture new unique data fields. The data insights we've been able to glean from their work have identified new opportunities and insights. Having experts on AI to lean on has been crucial in this rapidly changing landscape.".

He went on to say, "Scrapp's inspiring mission to reduce global waste through collective action and their innovative approach to creating easy access to local recycling information were the catalysts for our partnership. At ArtifexAI, we share Scrapp's commitment to building a more sustainable future driven by technology, and we believe that by joining forces, we can truly innovate and make a significant impact".

Over the next 6-12 months, Scrapp and Artifex will be building the relationship to deepen the AI-driven insights from Artifex's technology and integrate into Scrapp's platform. Beyond just modernizing recycling, the collaboration will make communities more sustainable overall, by providing unprecedented access to hyperlocal environmental data. Together, Scrapp and ArtifexAI will demonstrate how smarter, data-driven cities can be designed for both innovation and conservation. This is only the beginning of the shared vision for local decisions that have a global impact.
