Brightseed is on a mission to unlock the intelligence of the natural world to power human wellness
Despite centuries of wisdom proving the nutritional and medicinal roles plants play in our diets, the vast majority of phytonutrients in the plant kingdom remain unexplored. Our AI surfaces phytonutrients and their impact so they can be used to naturally support the body’s natural defenses. We can transform the modern diet from a cause of chronic illness to a source of health. Brightseed’s AI is cataloging the edible plant kingdom and identifying new nutrient sources with high potential health impact, at a much faster pace and with an unprecedented hit rate. Using traditional methods, it would take roughly 50,000 years to catalog all plant nutrients. We are on track to do this within 5 years.
