AI and X-ray sorting to recover critical raw materials from waste
About WeSort.AI
WeSort.AI is a Würzburg deep-tech company founded in 2021 by brothers Nathanael and Johannes Laier that builds AI, camera and X-ray sorting systems (including X.Sort / Battery.Sort) for recycling plants to detect batteries and e-waste in wrong streams, cut fire risk and recover critical raw materials such as lithium, cobalt and rare earths. Customers include KORN Recycling, PreZero (Schwarz Group), Remondis and Veolia. In March 2026 WeSort.AI secured a €10 million funding package from impact investors Infinity Recycling, Green Generation Fund and Vent.io, plus SPRIND and other public sources with BayStartUP support, to scale AI sorting across Europe—keep equity investors distinct from public/agency capital when aggregating totals.
