Azvai is an independent consulting practice in circular economy, systems thinking, and applied AI.
I’m Borja Blanco Mendez. I work with organizations on circular economy operations, field projects, economic analysis, innovation and entrepreneurship, community engagement, and process improvement. AI is part of the toolkit when it makes the work better.
Or see the work first: projects and case studies.
Systems thinking, in the field
Circular economy operations, economic analysis, community engagement, and process improvement. Strategic work that gets implemented, not stuck in slides.
Applied AI where it earns its place
AI-augmented research, analysis, and workflow design. Used as a collaborator in the practice, never a substitute for the field work.
Recent writing and tools
Recent writing and open-source tools from the practice. Field work, applied AI, and the tools that connect them.
Thinking
Is Claude Sustainable? The Anthropic disclosure gap
Research on what the leading AI labs do and don’t disclose about emissions, water, and infrastructure. Refreshed with the June 2026 IPO wave.
Field work
Designing a Coastal City Waste System
Lessons from Project STOP in Indonesia. Five workstreams, the behaviour change layer that carries the rest, and what actually held together after handover.
Tools
Claude Code Skills for Sustainability Consulting
Five open-source skills behind the research and writing workflow. Charts, content pipeline, GSC audit, WordPress publishing, and inspection prep.
