LAS VEGAS (FOX5) — Artificial intelligence is changing the way some businesses operate. One Las Vegas valley cleaning company is working to find new ways to put that technology to work and become more efficient.
Avanti Green Eco Cleaning started 15 years ago with a focus on environmentally friendly cleaning. It has grown to nearly 60 employees with thousands of customers.
Chief Operating Officer Mónica Taher is now looking toward the future.
“So we’ve been really at the forefront of technology. And adopting AI is really the next step. We’re actually already behind. Because AI is not new,” Taher said.
The company is turning to AI to help manage its growing operation with more efficiency.

The company recently won first place in an Amazon Web Services AI competition, securing $35,000 in engineering support. It is developing a scheduling and optimization system called Clever Shot.
“There are a lot of software out there for different types of home services, for cleaning, for HVAC, for pool cleaning, landscaping, etc. But what we’ve seen is that these platforms are not necessarily smart,” she said.
The goal is to automate manual tasks.
“We want to stay away from that in order to become more efficient and to use that time to sell more, to find new clients,” Taher said. “We are not only going to be saving a lot of time, approximately 40 hours a week in administrative time.”
The company is also exploring robotics partnerships, using data from cleaners’ hand movements to help train robotic systems.
“It’s not a competition. I actually see it as a great partnership,” Taher said. “I actually see that robots are going to become a great complement to this $800 billion industry that we have worldwide.”
The company hopes to begin deploying its new software in early 2027, with plans to make it available to other home-services businesses.
