The auditor’s question

Certificates per serial, not per batch.

Three ways to answer the bank’s auditor.

Your current software

An erasure report, a spreadsheet and three e-mails.

The answer takes a week and two people.

A general AI assistant

Explains ITAD chain-of-custody best practice.

It has never issued a certificate.

Evreka

One serial, one timeline, the certificate attached.

The answer is a link, not a project.

Where it goes

Client portalWEEE OnlineYour ERPAudit file
Rules, with dates

The dates your records answer to.

England and Wales · from 1 October 2026

Digital waste tracking from 1 October.

Each load received under a permit goes into the service by the end of the second working day. It costs £26 a year. A missed record risks a £1,000 fixed penalty.

What Evreka doesDrafts each record and flags loads open on day two. It isn’t on Defra’s software provider list, so you submit via your listed software or the government service. UMUTCAN APPROVAL: DWT route, Defra listing through the Receipt of Waste API or sitting on top of the operator’s listed system

From the floor

Common mistakes we see.

  1. Manifest and intake never reconciled.

    The auditor finds the missing serial first.

    InsteadReconcile at the dock, before the lot moves, with photos.

  2. Grading before the price is known.

    A Grade A laptop goes to recycling.

    InsteadPut today’s channel price next to every grade.

  3. Evidence notes not matched to tonnage.

    Return and notes disagree at quarter end.

    InsteadMatch each note to its loads when you issue it.

  4. Batteries in the main stream.

    The NFCC links lithium-ion batteries to around 48% of waste fires.

    InsteadSegregate at intake and check storage limits every day.

Questions

What ITAD owners ask first.

Is this a sales call?

It is a working call with Umutcan, the founder, on one of your client lots. If it doesn’t fit, we will tell you.

We are a 12-person ITAD. What does it cost?

A project to get you there, then a recurring fee that scales with the work the AI does. You pay for work done, not for seats or users.

Our clients audit us. What do they get?

One timeline per serial: collection, intake, erasure certificate, grade, channel and revenue share. Export it as a file or share a read-only link.

Is our data held in the UK?

Your data stays yours and is used to run your operation, not to build someone else’s. We confirm on the call where it would be hosted. UMUTCAN APPROVAL: hosting region for UK clients and what we can commit to in writing

How long until it works?

Weeks. We study the operation, build, and run your first client lots under your approval, usually starting with intake and certificates.
