Zabble is a comprehensive, AI-powered platform designed to help jurisdictions, haulers, and large organizations bring clarity, efficiency, and accountability to their zero waste operations and programs. At its core, Zabble Zero™ is a software-as-a-service solution that transforms how waste programs are measured and managed by turning real-world data collection and outreach activities into real-time, actionable insights. By leveraging patented computer vision and advanced analytics, Zabble provides granular visibility into contamination, bin fullness, participation, and hauling operations, areas that have historically been difficult to quantify. This level of insight enables program managers to move beyond reactive decision-making and instead proactively identify problem areas, measure the effectiveness of policies and education campaigns, and ensure compliance with evolving regulations such as California’s SB 1383 and Oregon’s Recycling Modernization Act. The result is a more connected, data-driven approach to waste reduction that aligns operational performance with sustainability goals.

Zabble’s platform is built as an integrated ecosystem of products that support the full lifecycle of zero waste programs, from field data collection to analysis, outreach, and continuous improvement. Its flagship Mobile Tagging solution equips field teams with a mobile app that uses AI to automatically capture contamination and fullness data during route reviews (or cart tagging), even in offline environments, while streamlining what was once a weeks-long planning process into just hours. This field data feeds into a powerful web dashboard that connects contamination trends to specific outreach actions, enabling targeted interventions such as personalized mailers that reinforce behavior change at the household or business level. Complementing this, Outreach Tracker consolidates all commercial and multi-family compliance-related activities, including site visits, waivers, and enforcement tracking, into a single, audit-ready system, while Invoice Analytics applies AI to digitize and analyze hauling invoices and reports, from spreadsheets or PDFs, to uncover cost savings and operational inefficiencies. Expanding beyond manual inspections, Zabble is also advancing Truck Camera AI, which brings end-to-end automated contamination detection directly to collection vehicles through camera integrations and hardware systems.

Together, these solutions have powered over 1.2 million bin inspections and analyzed thousands of pages of hauling invoices across more than 70 U.S. cities, saving customers tens of thousands of hours and millions of dollars in productivity while preventing hundreds of tons of contamination, demonstrating how technology can meaningfully accelerate progress toward a circular economy.

Zabble is a recipient of multiple USEPA SBIR awards to advance and commercialize its AI technology to boost recycling rates in the US and was recognized as one of the top 5 AI startups advancing the circular economy by Startus Insights.
