GLIDR vs The Winnow System

Build better products.

GLIDR is a product discovery and validation platform built to help your team 1) build a shared understanding of customer needs, 2) prioritize what to build, 3) calibrate your go-to-market strategy, and 4) make smarter decisions across your innovation portfolio.

In 2012, co-founders Jim Hornthal and Steve Blank discovered the need for software to power the National Science Foundation’s I-CORPS Program. Since then, we've built on our initial MVP and GLIDR is now a leading product discovery and innovation management tool.

Our mission: Accelerate the future by empowering product managers, entrepreneurs and innovators of all types with the tools they need to achieve their goals.

Technology to cut food waste in half

We believe that food is far too valuable to waste, and that technology can transform the way we use food.

Every year the UK hospitality sector wastes around £2.5bn worth of food. The modern commercial kitchen is an inefficient factory which is uneconomical and can waste as much as it generates in profit. This is a failure and we can do better. We believe that chefs deserve the information in an easily accessible way to make their kitchens more productive, freeing up time to focus on being creative with food.

We are Winnow. We develop innovative, accessible technology to empower people to get the most from their kitchens and reduce unnecessary wastage. We believe that what gets measured gets managed, and by using technology and information intelligently, kitchens can be made more efficient.
