Who it's for
We founded Proxy in 2022 to make every recipe a force for good: for people, the planet, and future generations.
From the outset, we saw how F&B companies were held back by roadblocks: complexity, silos, fragmented workflows, and outdated systems that slowed innovation.
Proxy was built to change that. An AI-native platform that unites science, data, and technology to catalyze creativity and accelerate innovation of food product development.
We help teams make faster, smarter decisions that balance performance, cost, and regulatory compliance with confidence.
So, you can focus on what truly matters: creating exceptional food experiences that move the world forward.
