Orbisk is a start-up on a mission to make the world food system more sustainable. We do this by using progressive and innovative technology. One of today's biggest challenges is food waste. Worldwide about one-third of all food produced is wasted. Looking at The Netherlands, for the hospitality industry alone, this adds up to 150 million kilos per year!
Our integral solution provides hospitality organizations with a complete insight into their food waste. And by doing so help them cut their waste in half. For this we make maximum use of recent developments in computer vision and AI. Our smart camera on top of the waste bin, connected to a scale, will automatically register all food being that is being thrown away up to the ingredient level.
