Avanti Green Eco Cleaning Wins $35,000 First Place Award in AI Pitch Competition

Avanti Green Eco Cleaning, an environmentally friendly commercial and residential cleaning service based in Southern Nevada, won an AI Pitch Competition hosted by the Nevada Small Business Development Center (SBDC), and sponsored by Amazon Web Services (AWS) and PREDICTif Solutions, a Houston-based data analytics leader.

Avanti Green was among 10 presenters selected from a pool of more than 50 applicants. Avanti Green earned first place and a prize of $35,000 in services to develop a route-optimization program.

The company’s Chief Operating Officer, Mónica Taher, represented the company at the April 16 presentation.

“With support from AWS, PREDICTif Solutions and the SBDC, we’re addressing a key challenge in the home-services industry: smart-route optimization and scheduling,” said Claudia Meneses, CEO and founder of Avanti Green. “Integrating AI will allow us to operate more efficiently by reducing an average of 40 hours per week in administrative tasks and decreasing common scheduling errors by 90 percent.”

Meneses added that creating manual daily schedules is an obstacle to growth in home services, eating up about 20 to 30 percent of administrative time, and that scheduling is prone to human error, and also slows customer acquisition rates compared to automated systems.

“With nearly 50 employees here at Avanti, an AI-driven scheduling and dispatching system would enhance route-optimization and team assignments, and provide and also handle real-time updates and offer predictive scheduling,” Meneses said.

She added that the concept was inspired by the success of Amazon’s Rabbit dispatching system and said there could be potential to license Avanti Green’s idea to other businesses in the industry. This initiative will also support Avanti Green’s goal of franchising and operating efficiently in multiple markets.

Avanti Green will begin work with PREDICTif engineers and project managers using AWS tools, a $35,000 value of services provided to develop and implement the cutting-edge platform.
