01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company does
Rezzi is a Somerville, Massachusetts-based waste-tech startup founded in 2019 and led by CEO Andrew Murray. It aims to bring waste collection into the digital future with its flagship product, SmartCan — an IoT-connected device that weighs waste bins in real time and provides data to haulers and communities, having started as an autonomous self-driving trash can concept. The company has raised about $1 million (Night Capital, NextFab Ventures), ran beta pilots with the City of Boston, Tufts University and Filco Carting, and its website remains listed. No shutdown, acquisition or other failure event was found — the company appears to be in a low-activity or zombie state.
