Fig builds AI agents to run the manual knowledge work of the $1T U.S. food manufacturing industry. Today, this sector runs on paper, PDFs, and people. Fig started as research at Stanford where we uncovered an opportunity to modernize the food manufacturing software stack and bring Silicon Valley technology to the Central Valley food system. We’ve built an initial wedge product helping manufacturers grow revenue—automating lead generation, contact intelligence, and product discovery built for the complexities of selling food ingredients. We have a dozen major food manufacturing businesses in the pipeline to pilot this initial tool. We’ve raised initial funding of $1.5M from Innovation Endeavors + food industry angels to build this vision.
