Why We Exist

Our mission is to accelerate the transition to a circular economy. For customers and businesses to embrace this shift, it needs to be both cost-effective and simple. Our technology platform enables the lease-and-reuse of devices, making them more sustainable, accessible, and affordable.

The demand speaks for itself. We\’ve quadrupled our ARR in just three years, with 100K+ billing customers proving the success of our model. To date, we’ve leased over 100,000 devices and earned an Excellent 4.5-star rating from 15,000+ Trustpilot reviews, redefining tech ownership, one lease at a time.

As a B-Corp certified company, we’re driven by purpose and backed by NatWest, Channel 4 Ventures, Macquarie, Octopus Ventures, and Telefónica. Their support fuels our mission to make smarter, more sustainable tech access the norm because the future of technology shouldn’t come at the cost of the planet.

Our Vision

Raylo is the technology powering a world where fewer products are manufactured, and those that are, get an extended life through our managed cycle of refurb, reuse, and recycle.

Our Core Values

Be deeply curious – We thrive on innovation through diverse approaches, views, and people.

Walk in your customer’s shoes – To build the best products and make the best decisions for the long term, we must figure out what our customers need, not just what they want.

Focus and execute – We have a big vision, but we believe in nailing the most important problems first.

Be gritty – Only gritty teams succeed. Our individual ownership, passion, and perseverance mean we’re a team through thick and thin.
