Unlike traditional food waste solutions, wastenot. doesn’t just track waste—it prevents it. Our AI-powered system enables proactive decision-making, helping restaurants cut costs, optimize resources, and lead the way in sustainability.

Our Story

wastenot. was born from the combined vision of two founders—one, a head chef and chefpreneur who lived the daily reality of food waste in professional kitchens, and the other, a UX designer and technopreneur passionate about solving problems through technology.

For the chef, waste wasn’t just a financial loss—it was a moral dilemma. Having spent years perfecting menus and managing inventory, he saw firsthand how perfectly good ingredients were discarded simply due to lack of real-time tracking, unpredictable demand, or strict operational constraints. The frustration grew deeper knowing that, just outside the restaurant, people in need could have benefited from what was being thrown away.

On the other side, the technopreneur saw an opportunity to bridge the gap between food waste and food stewardship through AI-driven solutions. She believed that data, design, and automation could empower restaurants to make smarter, more sustainable decisions—not just reactively, but proactively.

Together, they created wastenot., merging the art of culinary resourcefulness with the power of AI-driven innovation. Through real-time inventory tracking, expiry prediction, and demand forecasting, restaurants could now prevent waste before it happened. Geolocation AI connected surplus food to donation centers, while creative meal suggestions helped chefs repurpose ingredients in exciting ways.

For them, sustainability is more than efficiency—it’s stewardship. wastenot. isn’t just about reducing waste; it’s about honoring the ingredients, the effort, and the people behind every meal. With the perfect blend of culinary expertise and cutting-edge technology, they are redefining how the food industry approaches sustainability.
