Fueled by 2024 funding, Foodini accelerates integrations to build the first dietary data layer
The infrastructure for safe, compliant, real-time menu clarity.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Foodini unifies dietary information through an integration first approach. Foodini is developing the first ingredient and dietary data layer to enable personalized menus. By leveraging AI to synthesize recipe, product, and ingredient data, menus are tagged for over 150 allergens, diets, and preferences. This allows guests and servers to instantly see what they can order, significantly reducing questions to restaurants, capturing valuable data, and driving revenue for its customers.
Foodini successfully raised USD$1.8m in 2024 with participation from Untapped Ventures; GFR Fund; MVP Capital Partners; Square Root Holdings; Solvable Syndicate and a number of angel investors, all aligned with Foodini's mission to make dining out & ordering safer, simpler and more inclusive for the millions of people navigating food allergies, intolerances and dietary preferences.
"The way people dine is evolving — personalization is no longer a luxury, it's an expectation. From allergies to lifestyle choices, dietary needs are driving decisions, and the industry has struggled to keep up. We saw a massive opportunity to build the infrastructure that empowers venues to meet those needs at scale."

THE GROWING NEED
The need for this technology is ever-growing. Continuing to expect staff to be experts on every ingredient and allergen in every menu item is simply not practical.
"With 173 million Americans having a dietary need, the need for this technology is every growing - continuing to expect staff to be experts on every ingredient and allergen in every menu item is simply not practical"
