with
zebrafant.ai
Automated route planning
Cut dispatcher workload with data-based planning. Fewer manual changes, fewer last-minute fixes, and more time for exceptions and service quality.
30–40% fewer collection days
Need-based planning avoids unnecessary emptying. Fewer trips reduce fuel, labor, and vehicle wear while improving service consistency.
Up to 90% fewer overflows
‍
Empty at the right time. Containers are not missed or serviced too late, and complaints drop noticeably.
‍
Transparency for local authorities and cities
Every emptying is digitally documented. This simplifies reporting, builds trust, and provides reliable proof of service.
Knowledge in the system, not in individual heads
Local knowledge and experience are available digitally. Substitutes for staff who are ill, on holiday or retired can be found smoothly.
Flexible resource planning despite staff shortages
Drivers new to the area can run tours confidently. The system guides them reliably and helps you stay operational when staffing is tight.

Different location factors, one solution
Mountain regions
Seasonal access and weather constraints matter. Planning accounts for conditions and supports advance emptying before winter closures.
Tourist areas
Strong seasonal peaks and short-term occupancy spikes. Forecasts adapt to holidays and demand patterns.
Larger cities
Narrow time windows, congestion, and access rules. Routes include time slots, traffic patterns, and restrictions by default.
Campsites
Highly fluctuating fill levels and unusual peak times. The system detects patterns early and plans flexibly instead of following fixed cycles.
Areas with many bridges
Route logic is shaped by weight limits and clearance heights. Planning reliably respects these infrastructure constraints.
Medium-sized cities
‍
Urban centers meet rural outskirts. Mixed densities and limited resources require flexible routing that stays practical in daily operations.
Countryside

Long distances make every trip expensive. The system helps ensure each trip is worthwhile, collecting what is needed without unnecessary emptying.
Areas with dense forest cover
Limited connectivity and complex access roads. The system remains reliable even when infrastructure is limited.

In
four steps
to the new
industry standard
1. Free ROI & fit check
‍
‍
Is zebrafant a good fit for you?
We will assess together whether zebrafant is suitable for your collection. We assess region, container types, staffing situation, constraints, and realistic savings potential. Free and non-binding.
2. Data onboarding
‍
‍
Real data instead of gut feeling
Your drivers record fill levels during normal tours. No sensors, no extra trips, and no additional organizational effort required. This provides a clear picture of filling behaviour in your area.
3. Pilot routes + weekly tuning
‍
Smooth transition to the new standard
Once we understand fill behavior, we roll out optimized route planning step-by-step. Weekly tuning ensures immediate relief rather than disruption, even with tight staffing.
4. Scale + continuous improvement
‍
Long-term impact, not a short test
After 3 to 6 months, we unlock additional potential through improved forecasting, container placement optimization, and route refinement. This turns collection into a stable, data-driven standard.
