## Article

Winnow has unveiled **Winnow Foresight**, a mobile tool that uses AI to anticipate how much will be ordered in the kitchen before service even starts. The company developed it alongside Hilton chefs and, according to the release covered by [Hospitality Net](https://www.hospitalitynet.org/news/4134632/winnow-announces-winnow-foresight-a-mobile-first-ai-powered-forecasting-tool-designed-to-predict-kitchen-demand-and-prevent-food-waste-developed-with-hilton-chefs), pilots across **13 Hilton hotels in EMEA** cut overproduction by up to **69%**.

The interesting bit is not the AI, it is the angle. For years the industry has measured waste after the fact, weighing whatever was already thrown out. Foresight attacks the problem earlier, with item-level prediction. And that it was built with Hilton chefs makes sense, because if the data does not land in the daily kitchen operation, it is useless.

My read as an editor: there is business here for two sides. For anyone running F&B, less waste is straight margin, and a breakfast buffet carries weight. For Winnow, it reinforces its position in waste-reduction tech at a time when European hotel chains are under pressure to report sustainability metrics. The real test is scaling beyond pilots, which is where these tools either collapse or cement themselves.
