Currently, agroindustrial waste can be used to obtain bioactive compounds. The solid-state fermentation is an alternative for the valorization of these waste and to be able to release bioactive compounds that may be of interest to different industrial sectors. The aim of this study was to evaluate solid-state fermentation conditions using pineapple peel waste as the substrate with <i>Aspergillus niger</i> spp., to release bioactive compounds using a Plackett–Burman exploratory design. Temperature, humidity, inoculum, NaNO<sub>3</sub>, MgSO<sub>4</sub>, KCl, and KH<sub>2</sub>PO<sub>4</sub> conditions in the fermentation process were evaluated. The antioxidant capacity was determined, and the main compounds of the fermentation extracts were identified. The results revealed that the <i>Aspergillus niger</i> HT3 strain reached a hydrolyzable tannin release of 10.00 mg/g, While <i>Aspergillus niger</i> Aa20 reached a condensed tannin release of 82.59 mg/g. The KH<sub>2</sub>PO<sub>4</sub> affects the release of condensed tannins with <i>A. niger</i> Aa20, and MgSO<sub>4</sub> affects the release of hydrolyzable tannins with <i>A. niger</i> HT3. In addition, a positive antioxidant activity was demonstrated for the DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP technique. The main compounds in the fermented pineapple peel were 3-feruloylquinic acid, caffeic acid, lariciresinol, and 3-hydroxyphloretin 2′-O-xylosyl-glucoside, among others. The solid-state fermentation process is a biotechnological alternative for the release of bioactive compounds.
