Carriers
More jobs, closer to home
Work flows to the carriers best placed to do it.
Kuba Labs
Every job, connected.
Software and AI agents that link every booking, crew and record, from first call to final paperwork. Built first for waste. Ready for any industry that works in the field.
The name
Kuba comes from Kubatana: “to connect.”
Connection is the architecture of what we build: across people, technology and industry.
01
People
Brokers and carriers, running on one system. Every job flows between them without a phone call.
02
Technology
AI agents that classify, price and route the work, turning fragmented manual processes into one intelligent layer.
03
Industry
One connective layer, built first for waste and engineered to run any regulated, field-based industry.
Waste still moves on phone calls, paper and guesswork. Kuba Labs is building the system that connects it all: every job, every carrier, every load, from booking to disposal.
The problem
An industry still running on phone calls and paper.
- 01Jobs scattered across calls, emails, spreadsheets and group chats.
- 02Carriers working alone, each chasing the next job.
- 03Paperwork written by hand, then chased, retyped and filed.
- 04Disposals that can’t be traced cleanly from collection to tip.
The work is hard enough. The admin around it shouldn’t be.
Built for both sides
One platform. Everyone in the chain.
Carriers
Paperwork done for you
Waste transfer notes built from the job itself and signed on the day.
Carriers
Every disposal tracked
Where it went, when, and how much, recorded as it happens.
Carriers
Work together
Share loads and cover across the network instead of competing for scraps.
Brokers
Book in a few clicks
Large collection contracts or a single man-and-van job.
Brokers
See everything in one place
Job status, documents and disposal records, backed by a vetted carrier network.
The connected chain
One record. Start to finish.
- BookA collection is requested, priced and confirmed.
- AssignMatched to the right carrier and crew.
- CollectPicked up, weighed and signed for on site.
- DisposeTipped at a licensed site and recorded.
- DocumentWaste transfer notes and records, done.
From the moment a job is booked to the moment the waste is disposed of, every step is part of the same record. No re-keying. No gaps. No chasing.
A digital workforce
AI agents that work alongside your team.
Kuba Labs puts AI agents to work on the jobs that eat the day: pricing, scheduling, chasing paperwork, checking compliance. Your people stay focused on what grows the business: winning work, serving customers, running the operation.
We’re building at the frontier of AI and waste, and this is only the beginning.
Pricing
Quoting a collection
Scheduling
Planning tomorrow’s routes
Paperwork
Chasing a signed transfer note
Compliance
Checking a disposal site licence
Built for digital waste tracking
Ready before the deadline.
The UK is moving waste records from paper to a single digital system. Receiving sites are first, and carriers and brokers are next. Kuba Labs captures the right data at every step, so when your turn comes you’re already there.

- Much more in the pipeline.
Where we come from
Built from the yard, not the boardroom.
Kuba Labs grew out of a waste carrier’s day-to-day operation: real jobs, real drivers, real paperwork. Every feature started as a problem we had to solve ourselves.
What is Kuba Labs?
Kuba Labs builds software and AI agents for businesses that work in the field, starting with waste. It connects brokers and carriers in one system, so every job runs from booking to disposal without re-keying, chasing or paper.
Who is it for?
Waste carriers and waste brokers first, from single-van operators to companies running large collection contracts. More of the chain will follow.
When can I start using it?
We're opening access in stages. Our carrier app is already in live trials with working crews. Join the waitlist and we'll get in touch as places open.
What is digital waste tracking, and how does Kuba Labs help?
The UK is replacing paper waste records with a single digital system. Receiving sites are first, and carriers and brokers are next. Kuba Labs records the right information at every step of a job, so you're ready when it applies to you.
Do I have to replace the software I use today?
Not to get started. You can use as much or as little of Kuba Labs as you need, even just as a simple booking portal. We'll talk through how it fits with your current tools when you join.
How do you handle my data?
We only collect what we need to run the service, and we never sell it. Our privacy policy explains what we hold and why.
