The verification engine for nutrient-dense food
Measure, verify and improve nutrient density from farm to plate.
Vitagri is building the UK's first framework to measure, verify and reward nutrient-dense food production. Pulse is the working platform: manufacturers, retailers and trade associations use it to score and independently verify the nutrient density of food, grounded in 19,000+ peer-reviewed studies linking soil health to human health.
The Pulse platform · what you can do
One platform. Three ways to put the evidence to work.
Pulse AI to explore the evidence. Pulse Workshop to score your products. Pulse Check to verify a claim.
Pulse AI
Ask any nutrient-density question and get a straight answer in seconds, grounded in the evidence catalogue. Free to use — the fastest way to meet Pulse.
Pulse Workshop
The year-round platform where your team scores, verifies and benchmarks nutrient density across products, ingredients and farms — a place you work in, not a training day you attend. Plans from £54/user/month.
Pulse Check
One-off verification of a single “nutrient-dense” claim — no subscription. Submit the claim and get an evidence-graded verdict (Critical, Investigate, Supported or Evolution), typically under 15 minutes for a full report. First report free with a work email that matches your company website; £10 a report after that.
The technology breakthrough · 3D farming
The world's first bi-directional predictive model for nutrient-dense food — we call it 3D farming.
The Bi-Directional Predictive Model is the technology breakthrough behind Pulse. A forward model predicts a food's nutrient density from how it was farmed. A reverse model independently verifies how it was grown from the food's biology. Run as an optimiser, the same model surfaces the practice changes most likely to lift density. We call these three dimensions — predict, verify, improve — 3D farming. Together they close the loop, turning a nutrient-density claim into audit-grade verification. R&D flagship — now recruiting founding trial sites.
Practice → density
Forecast nutrient density from farming systems.
Biology → practice
Read the food's biology to confirm how it was grown.
Search → field trial
Surface the next practice change most likely to lift density.
The science behind Pulse
Grounded in 19,000+ studies, 60+ specialists, and collaboration with the Bionutrient Institute.
Every Pulse score, verification and forecast is built on the evidence base set out in the Growing Health Report, the 19,000+ tier-graded records in Pulse Brain — tier-graded means every record is ranked by strength of evidence, from T1 (systematic reviews and meta-analyses) down to T4 (narrative reviews, policy and practice sources) — and active collaboration with Dan Kittredge and the Bionutrient Institute, the world's leading authority on farming for nutrient density.
“We, at the Bionutrient Institute, are delighted to be working with Vitagri to accelerate the measurement of how farming can increase nutritional density.”
Partnerships in progress
In conversation with the organisations that move the UK food system.
We are in active partnership conversations with national retailers, food manufacturers, farming and food trade associations, and research and policy bodies. We name partners only when agreements are signed — names can be shared under NDA on request.
For your organisation
Find the route that fits.
Food manufacturers & brands
Score and benchmark the nutrient density of products and ingredients. Build the commercial case for premium ingredients.
Retailers
See how the products on your shelves score for nutrient density — and trace each score back through the supply chain to the farm.
Trade associations
Give your members an independent, evidence-based grade for nutrient density — one standard across your sector.
Farmers & growers
Nutrient density is made in your fields. Host a founding 3D farming trial site and help build — and benefit from — the model that predicts and verifies it.
Advisers & groups
Run Pulse with the farmers and food businesses you work with. Pulse Cultivator gives advisers and groups shared workspaces, group evidence feeds and adviser tools.
Research & policy
