Otta's take

Xav Kearney

CTO of Otta

Eating well isn't always so easy. Especially if you have a family to raise, struggle financially, or aren't familiar with certain ingredients. Unfortunately, not eating well can worsen various health problems, leading to increased medical costs. Foodsmart seeks to change the meal kit paradigm by providing meal kits that are tailored to your nutritional needs and dietary preferences.

Since launching their app in 2011, Foodsmart has enrolled over 1 million users with demonstrated results. For example, Over 30% of obese subscribers have shown positive weight loss results, and subscribers with hypertension have shown an average reduction of 10 mm hg in systolic blood pressure. With registered dieticians consulting and guiding subscriber meal plans, the company has smartly carved a science-first niche in the multi-billion dollar meal plan delivery service market.

Foodsmart has worked with hundreds of employers including Walmart, Cigna, and Instacart to improve the health of their employees. Most recent funding comes from Houston-based Memorial Hermann Health System, with which Foodsmart hopes to advance its "food is medicine" philosophy, further enabling patients to follow through with specific, personalized nutrition guidance led by their physicians.
