Additionally, by offering its technology on Google Cloud Marketplace, Spoon Guru will be able to better deliver unique joint solutions at scale to more retailers. This will enable grocers and retailers to confidently categorize their product catalogs more accurately, ensuring better coverage when it comes to search, filter and recommendation results.

Working with certified nutrition experts and public health organizations in both Europe and the United States, Spoon Guru has developed a proprietary algorithm that strives for unrivaled accuracy in matching consumers with the right foods.

“Spoon Guru is already enabling health personalization for retailers globally, and we are excited to see the value they will bring to our retail customers,” said Paul Tepfenhart, director global retail solutions at Mountain View, Calif.-based Google Cloud. “Finding products for individual dietary and health needs can be challenging, so this partnership between Google Cloud and Spoon Guru will enable customers with technologies that provide even more satisfying and relevant experiences to their end consumer.” 

“Spoon Guru’s partnership with Google Cloud represents a significant step forward to helping global retailers provide accurate and personalized food recommendations for their customers, and ultimately further our mission to improve people’s lives by helping them eat well and live better,” noted Markus Stripf, co-founder of London-based Spoon Guru.
