Dutch company Orbisk is on a mission to halve waste in the food industry using AI. Its founders are now celebrating securing €8m in series A funding, and hope to expand into Asia.
Orbisk’s technology works by taking photos of trash-bound food. It categorises the waste using AI, then offers actionable advice to kitchen staff on how they can minimise rubbish in future.
The product is already used in more than 40 countries, in businesses ranging from cafes and hotels to cruise ships. The company writes on LinkedIn that it will use its latest investment to further expand internationally.
