## About

Based in Massachusetts, US, and founded in 2019 by Chief Executive Officer Emily Molstad and Chief Technology Officer Caleb Ralphs, Valis Insights Inc. operates as a provider of an artificial intelligence-based platform for improving the recycling of postconsumer metals in carbon metal production. In October 2023, Valis raised an undisclosed amount of seed funding led by Closed Loop Partners, with participation from GS Futures, the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center, and Refashiond.

Valis Insights Inc. developed a platform-based solution known as Vali-Sort for scrap processors to improve metal recycling through artificial intelligence based on data. The company’s platform offers a variety of services, such as insights for plants and sales managers into material quality, integration with equipment and various data sources, monitoring through machine learning, and models to improve sorting criteria. In addition, the firm provides a variety of services, such as real-time melt analysis, consulting, laboratory-based research, and many more.

The company plans to use the funding from October 2023 to expand the Valis team, including software development, sales, and operations, to support the at-scale rollout of the solution across the metal recycling ecosystem.
