Agentic metals marketplace
AI agents run your metal trade, start to settlement.
IntelliCycle is the counterparty on both sides of every deal. Autonomous agents verify each party, price against global indices, inspect the assay, hold funds in escrow, and run logistics — under a human-controlled autonomy gate. So recyclers and buyers never negotiate, meet, or chase a shipment themselves.
- Agent-verified counterparties
- Escrow-protected
- Human-gated autonomy
Built for transactions where trust is non-negotiable
- KYB verification on every counterparty
- Escrow released on verified milestones
- Identities never exposed across a trade
- Every price set by an AI agent, benchmarked to global indices
One lifecycle, run end-to-end by AI agents
Five specialist agents run the trade from first contact to final settlement — each owning one leg, verified at every stage and revealed at none.
- 1
Trust Agent — KYB onboarding & risk scoring
Every counterparty is verified and risk-scored before they can trade. Both sides are known to IntelliCycle — and to no one else.
- 2
Pricing Agent — offers benchmarked to global indices
Offers are priced against global benchmarks, removing the guesswork and information asymmetry that distort scrap deals.
- 3
Verification Agent — assay & inspection at source
Chemical assays and physical inspection happen at the seller's yard, so material grade is confirmed before anything moves.
- 4
Escrow Agent — milestone-gated release
Funds sit in escrow and release only as verified milestones are met — protecting both sides without exposing either.
- 5
Logistics Agent — customs, freight & ESG to settlement
Freight, customs clearance and ESG documentation are orchestrated end to end, through to final settlement.
Every agent step ran, in order.
- Counterparty verified — Trust Agent
- Priced to global index — Pricing Agent
- Assay confirmed at source — Verification Agent
- Escrow released on milestones — Escrow Agent
- Freight, customs & ESG cleared — Logistics Agent
At no point in the lifecycle do buyer and seller see each other. IntelliCycle verifies both, contracts with both, and keeps the two sides apart through settlement.
Structural anonymity, not a privacy toggle
IntelliCycle is the contracting counterparty to both sides. Buyers and sellers are never exposed to each other — anonymity isn't a setting you switch on, it's how the trade is built.
Seller
Recyclers, scrap yards & collectors
Verified, then matched — never revealed to the other side.
Two separate contracts. One accountable intermediary in the middle.
Buyer
Smelters, manufacturers & refiners
Sourced confidently — from a counterparty they can't go around.
No back-channeling
Both parties contract with IntelliCycle, never with each other — there is no thread for either side to step outside the platform.
No supplier poaching
Sourcing relationships stay with us. A buyer cannot map, name or pursue a seller they were never introduced to.
Margin stays protected
Because the relationship can't be disintermediated, your pricing edge and sourcing network are defensible by design.
Built for both sides of the trade
Whether you're buying or selling, IntelliCycle removes the same friction — from the other side of the same wall.
Smelters, manufacturers and refiners
Zero-fraud procurement
Every transaction is backed by AI-verified chemical assays and physical inspection at the source — you get exactly what you paid for.
Direct global access

Escrow-protected payments
Funds are held in escrow and released only when a shipment passes agreed verification milestones.
ESG documentation
Receive documentation on carbon footprint and sourcing to support your sustainability reporting.
End-to-end logistics

Why one managed desk beats five separate providers
IntelliCycle owns the parts of a cross-border scrap trade that usually take five separate providers — quality, payment, logistics and pricing — under one accountable set of AI agents.
Market transparency
Real-time context on global prices and demand, so both sides trade with the same information.
Reduced friction
One portal replaces the five separate providers a cross-border scrap trade usually needs.
Cost efficiency
AI-optimised routing lowers shipping cost and the carbon footprint of the trade.
