Automating nutrition tracking
We built the DROP, an AI-powered wearable camera that automatically tracks nutrition by identifying food with computer vision. It estimates nutrition content and offers recommendations. We've also developed an API integrating this tech into fitness chains, generating recurring revenue.
We live in San Francisco, CA, and the company will be based here after YC.
San Francisco is where we're currently located and where our user base and partners are concentrated. It's the right place to grow our network and team.
