Our mission is to make the world of products optimized, searchable, and personalized for today's consumers (66% of whom now shop around personal health needs — think Keto, No Added Sugar, Plant-Based, Heart Health, No Dairy, etc etc.). We're the "system of record" that's powering personalized, preference-driven shopping.
At Pinto, we believe consumers should be able to easily find products according to their individual needs, and our data platform is solving this by digitizing and classifying the world of products across every consumer preference — from every allergen and intolerance to key lifestyles and diets (like Vegan, Paleo, Keto, Gluten Free), rising health conditions (like Diabetes Management, Heart Health, etc.), certifications, sustainability preferences, nutrition and ingredient preferences, and so much more.
The era of personalization is here and we’ve built Pinto to power it🍓📊.
