Mill

Mill is a consumer sustainability company that makes a smart kitchen bin which dries and grinds household food scraps overnight into dry, nutrient-rich "Food Grounds," keeping food waste out of landfills and cutting the methane it would otherwise produce. Sold as a membership starting around $799 or roughly $66/month, the bin is odorless, reduces food-waste volume by about 80%, and the resulting grounds are reused in gardens, as chicken feed, or through farm partnerships. Mill also runs a commercial line for grocery, offices, food service, and municipalities. Backed by GV (Google Ventures), Mill is a consumer hardware and subscription business with a companion mobile app; it exposes no public developer API — its /api/ path is an internal app backend disallowed in robots.txt.

Mill is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Consumer, Food Waste, Sustainability, and Composting.

Mill’s developer surface includes engineering blog, product news, support, pricing, and 5 more developer resources.
