Food is medicine. We're building the rails for it.
Prado is the infrastructure that lets clinicians prescribe food and gets medically tailored meals to the patient's door, from the kitchens already making them.
Make food a prescription any clinician can write and any patient can fill, so the care plan keeps working long after the visit ends.
The treatment exists. The infrastructure didn't.
Diet drives most chronic disease, and the evidence for medically tailored meals is strong. Clinicians already write nutrition plans every day.
What was missing was the path from that plan to a plate: a way to prescribe the food, match it to the patient, and get it delivered. Prado is that path.

One platform. Three people it has to work for.
Clinicians
Build a signed nutrition plan in minutes, grounded in published standards.
Food merchants
Fill the plan from the menus they already make, with no new systems.
Patients
Get meals matched to their plan, delivered to the door every week.
Behind them sit the organizations that bring Prado to more people: telehealth platforms, health systems, clinician groups, and employers.
How we build and why.
Clinical first
Every plan starts with a clinician and published standards. The software does the math so they can focus on the patient.
Use what already works
Clinicians keep their workflow. Merchants keep their kitchens. We connect what exists instead of asking anyone to rebuild.
Food people want to eat
A plan only works if the patient eats it. We match to real menus and let patients swap meals that don't appeal.
Private by default
Patient health information stays protected, and the people around the patient only see what they need to.
We're a small team with a big table to set.
If you want to help make food a real part of care, we'd like to hear from you.
Bring food into the care plan. Start this week.
Clinicians can get started on their own. Organizations get a program built around their patients.
