Soylent means complete nutrition— innovative, science-based, and sustainable. We create products that deliver complete plant-based protein, essential nutrients, healthy fats, and slow-burning carbs in convenient and affordable formats that are both good for you and the planet.
Our company was founded on the principle of reducing trade-offs between nutrition, convenience, and sustainability and we continue to use these principles as guides in our product formulation and ingredient selection. Working at Soylent, you'll be able to share in our singular mission of making complete nutrition accessible, appealing, and affordable to all. We take this very seriously—when we say ALL, we mean it. We know there are people near and far that cannot afford healthy food and are food insecure. To achieve our mission of expanding access to complete nutrition, we’ve developed our #SoylentForGood program that has donated millions of meals to date.
