Brightseed unleashes nature's intelligence in food
Brightseed's discoveries transform today's food
CPG products into a scientifically proven source of
health
By restoring the central role of plants and their
healthful compounds in nutrition, we can reconnect
every person to the goodness in,the foods they eat

Brightseed built ForagerTM, nature's discovery engine
▪ Brightseed created Forager, a computational
intelligence that understands nature more
profoundly than human intelligence
• Forager is fueled by Brightseed's growing
proprietary data on the world's plants and deep
knowledge of human biology
• Forager interrogates and learns natural phenomena
with unprecedented speed and scale,
discovering natural compounds that solve unmet
human problems
