## What is Fonzi?

Not sure which bin? Just type it or snap it.

There are around 15 recycling waste streams and Fonzi uses AI to instantly identify any household item and tell you exactly how to recycle or dispose of it correctly — following Portugal's official recycling rules.

Point your camera at any object, or type its name, and Fonzi tells you:
• Which bin it goes in (yellow, blue, green, or grey)
• Whether it needs to go to an ecocentro, a store, or any other specific drop-off point
• The nearest collection points on a map, with directions

Works anywhere in Portugal. No account needed. No ads.
