Frequently asked questions

How does Winnow help reduce food waste in commercial kitchens?

Winnow uses AI and a connected camera-and-scale system to identify and weigh food thrown away automatically. That data feeds into daily reports showing chefs exactly which items and prep stages generate the most waste. Chefs then use those reports to adjust how much they produce and what goes on the menu.

 

Will Winnow slow down my kitchen team during service?

No. With Throw & Go, kitchen staff throw food away as they normally would. The AI captures and categorises the waste automatically, with no scanning or manual input. The system was designed for high-pressure kitchens where every second counts during service.

 

What results do kitchens typically see with Winnow?

Kitchens running Winnow typically cut food purchasing costs by 3%-8% and reduce overall food waste by half. Across 3,500+ sites in 94 countries, Winnow users collectively save $100m per year — the equivalent of 70 million meals. Most sites see measurable change within the first 90 days.

 

Can Winnow track food waste across multiple kitchens and sites?

Yes. Winnow Hub gives culinary directors and regional managers cross-site dashboards, property benchmarking, and daily reporting from one platform. It shows which sites are performing well and which need attention, so teams can act on the data without physically visiting every kitchen.

 

How does Winnow help with sustainability and ESG reporting?

Winnow provides auditable, automated food waste data that sustainability teams can feed directly into ESG reports and carbon accounting. The system tracks CO2e avoided (122,000 tonnes per year across all Winnow users) and meals saved, giving reporting teams real numbers rather than estimates.

 

Do kitchen teams need technical training to use Winnow?

Minimal. With Throw & Go, staff throw food away as they normally would. There is no app to learn, no barcode to scan, no category to select. Winnow provides onboarding support and multilingual coaching to help teams of all experience levels get started quickly.
