# Chipotle Turns to Palantir After a Summer of Outbreaks

Chipotle Mexican Grill is building a food safety risk platform on Palantir Technologies' Foundry software, according to WIRED. The platform appears to analyze health department scores, pest incidents and employee illnesses to assign each store a food safety score. Palantir did not respond to a request for comment. Chipotle confirmed the work, with Laurie Schalow, chief corporate affairs and food safety officer, saying it is "piloting a new Food Safety Risk Management Platform designed to provide a more consistent and centralized view of food safety risk across our restaurants."

This comes after a turbulent period where the FDA has identified more than 12,800 illnesses tied to foodborne outbreaks so far this year. Chipotle stopped serving jalapenos from one supplier in July after a salmonella outbreak that went on to sicken more than 430 people.

Palantir already sells into this sector, with Tyson , General Mills and the independent purchasing co-op for Wendy's among its customers. Corporate work now accounts for nearly half its US business, with US commercial revenue up 149% to $764 million last quarter.

Chipotle shares were up 0.65% and Palantir 0.73% premarket.
