KITRO

KITRO is a Swiss company founded in 2017 in Zurich that helps professional kitchens measure and reduce food waste through AI-powered automation. Its KITRO TARE device pairs an IoT scale with a camera and computer vision to automatically identify, weigh and categorize discarded food with no change to kitchen workflow, feeding a cloud analytics dashboard that surfaces waste trends by time, item and station, compares performance across properties, and exports reports for sustainability and EU food-waste compliance reporting. KITRO serves hotel groups and resorts, hospitals and care homes, corporate canteens, universities and schools, and river and ocean cruise operators in 20+ countries, with customers including Marriott, Hyatt, TUI BLUE, Pestana, 25hours Hotels and Sydney Opera Bar. KITRO publishes no public developer API, SDKs or developer portal — the only customer-facing software surface is the authenticated dashboard at my.kitro.ch — but it does publish an llms.txt agent-readable company description at www.kitro.ch/llms.txt.

KITRO is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Food Waste, Sustainability, Hospitality, and Food Service.

KITRO’s developer surface includes pricing, engineering blog, support, and 13 more developer resources.
