Problem
Many consumers receive generic dietary advice that ignores individual metabolic and gut microbiome differences, leading to suboptimal health outcomes and difficulty identifying foods that truly benefit them. Access to clinically validated, personalized nutrition insights typically requires costly lab visits and specialist interpretation, which are not scalable for the broader population.
Solution
ZOE delivers a science‑backed, at‑home gut health test that uses shotgun metagenomic sequencing to profile the microbiome and integrates blood‑marker inputs. The results are processed by proprietary machine‑learning algorithms to predict post‑prandial glucose and lipid responses for any food. An AI‑driven mobile app provides real‑time food scanning, barcode reading, and personalized nutrition scores, while also tracking plant‑diversity intake (30 + plants per week). Users receive actionable dietary recommendations, habit‑forming nudges, and a curated plant‑based supplement (Daily30+) formulated from 30 + whole‑food ingredients to support gut health and energy. All data are stored in a HIPAA‑compliant cloud, with optional FHIR integration for health‑record syncing, enabling continuous, data‑driven health optimization.
Target Audience
