We are developing breakthrough consumer products that enable you to know what is in your food. For us, it's personal. We're on a mission to change the dining experience, forever. We believe anxiety is one thing that doesn't belong on your plate, and that food should be about enjoyment and community. Our product, the Nima Sensor, is the world’s first portable sensor that tests food for gluten or peanuts in minutes. Nima’s award winning technology and antibody-based chemistry was developed by MIT scientists and is partially funded by the National Institute of Health. Peace of mind can now be carried in your pocket - order yours today at nimasensor.com. Our Mission A huge part of our lives center around food. However, we often don’t know what exactly is in our food. Our founders long struggled with food allergies and sensitivities and were tired of always getting sick and worrying if their food was safe. After meeting at MIT, they built a technology company to help alleviate the stress around eating, and set out to empower consumers by giving them a tool that detects hidden ingredients in their food. Our Products Nima is a discreet and portable sensor that allows consumers to test their food for gluten or peanuts directly at the table. The sensor also syncs to our app (iOS and Android) where our lively community members can share their food test results with others. Acquisition: Nima was acquired by a medical device company in 2020. Nima products should continue to be available for purchase on Amazon.
