Berry Street is a business-in-a-box platform enabling registered dietitians to start and scale private practices that accept health insurance. We provide all of the software needed to run a thriving practice + administrative services like insurance contracting, eligibility verification, customer support, claims billing, and even patient acquisition.
The Opportunity:
Americans' poor nutrition is killing us (and costing us billions).
- 3/4 are overweight
- 1/2 are obese
- 1/2 have 1+ chronic disease caused by poor nutrition
- 1 in 10 will have an eating disorder in their lifetime (binge eating, anorexia, bulimia, etc.)
Nutrition therapy is both clinically proven to make a difference and most commercial health insurance plans cover it at $0 out-of-pocket.
We’re on a mission to fundamentally heal America’s relationship with food. Berry Street empowers registered dietitians to launch and grow in-network private practices. We’re creating game-changing technology to build America’s largest dietitian network and ensure that anyone can access the help they need.
Since launching in January 2023, Berry Street has raised capital from top VCs like Village Global and angel investors like the founders of Elemy and Grow Therapy.
