Forerunner is an AI-powered intelligence layer that helps local governments connect fragmented systems and geospatial data to operate with clarity and precision. Cities and counties invest heavily in permitting systems, asset management tools, and GIS, yet critical work still falls through the cracks because those systems don’t reflect what’s happening on the ground. Field observations go uncaptured, data is siloed, and teams struggle to turn information into coordinated action. Forerunner works alongside the systems agencies already use, unifying data and guiding frontline teams through an AI-powered, mobile-first experience. By connecting real-world conditions to back-office workflows, we ensure the right work gets done with the right context—whether it’s inspections, code enforcement, storm response, or long-term resilience planning. The result is faster, more consistent execution that reduces risk, surfaces revenue, and prevents small issues from becoming costly emergencies. Today, we partner with nearly 200 communities across the country and recently raised a $26M+ Series B to accelerate our growth—expanding our platform and team to support the agencies building stronger, safer communities.

Operating in over 20 countries, TerraCycle (terracycle.com) is the world leader in the recycling of generally non-recyclable waste such as energy bar wrappers, toothbrushes and toothpaste tubes, diaper packaging, and cigarette butts. We create and administer collection and solution systems for waste that would otherwise be sent to landfill or incineration. Major manufacturers contract with TerraCycle to subsidize the cost of collecting and recycling their waste (e.g. Clif for energy bar wrappers, Colgate for Oral Care), and we offer a full marketing and promotion platform to engage volunteer collectors and promote the programs to generate recognition for the sponsoring brands. TerraCycle has over 100,000 voluntary collection locations in the US alone, including schools, offices, homes, community groups and other various organizations. TerraCycle then turns collected waste into a wide variety of products and materials such as plastic pallets, composite decking and railroad ties.
