"We’re fundamentally reshaping how work gets done, starting with real estate but certainly not ending there. Ellie isn’t your standard digital assistant – she’s a game-changer that amplifies human capabilities. We’re empowering professionals to break through old limits by uniting previously siloed data and generating deeper insights. We’re creating unprecedented business value across the real estate value chain and beyond."
The investment round was led by Una Terra to expand global reach and develop new sorting capabilities.
"Waste has been recognised as the fourth biggest contributor to climate change, yet the data surrounding it has been sparse at best. This is a huge missed opportunity. We are putting a monetary value on waste – something that is perceived to have a negative value. Providing access to granular waste data can also have a big impact at a macro level, helping to shape government policies around recycling and influencing the decisions producers make about their packaging."
