About Burnt
Burnt is building the AI Brain for global supply chains, starting with the global food supply chain from farm to table. The company has automated $10M+ in monthly orders without humans in the loop and has raised $3.8M from Penny Jar and Scribble Ventures. Burnt plans to expand from food distribution into full enterprise deployments across the broader food supply chain, from freight to manufacturing to distribution, with its AI agents proactively helping to run the business. It aims to do for the entire supply chain stack what Salesforce did for CRM and describes itself as an AI Watchtower for global supply chains in a $10 trillion+ market. Burnt is currently building its founding team and hiring elite builders.
