A fictional company. Every number in this deck is illustrative.

I · The problem

A tenth of the food a kitchen buys goes in the bin

10%

For a mid-size restaurant that is 90 kg a week, about $1,800 of stock, before labour and disposal.

III · The proof

Paying kitchens, up 38% a month

IV · The plan

Room to grow: 1.1 million kitchens

All kitchens · $3.3B

Every restaurant kitchen in the US and EU.

Full-service · $930M

Kitchens spending over $1M a year on food.

By 2029 · $36M ARR

12,000 kitchens: 4% of full-service.

IV · The plan

The only tool that weighs waste and changes the prep

Smart bins see the waste but don't change what gets cooked.

Inventory software changes orders but guesses the waste.

Tare does both.

IV · The plan

Eighteen months to a thousand kitchens

IV · The ask

Raising
$4M

Seed round, eighteen months of runway.

Enough to reach 1,000 kitchens and $3M ARR by Q1 2028.

Weigh it.
Waste less.
