Overview
We're here to give time back to the people who keep the food industry moving. The food supply chain runs on relationships, hustle, and a thousand moving parts--but behind every order is a team buried in emails, messages, voicemails, and spreadsheets, manually trying to keep everything on track. Burnt exists to eliminate that repetitive, invisible work--from order entry to the admin no one sees but everyone feels. We're building AI that fits into the flow of work, quietly handling the tasks no one has time for.
