Mission & Vision

Transforming Nutrition with AI, One Grain at a Time

The problem

“Hidden hunger is a manufacturing problem — solvable with better tools.

Nearly 2 billion people eat enough calories but not enough nutrients. Iron, zinc, vitamin A — quietly missing from the staple foods they rely on every day.

We mirror food and feed plants in software — connecting education, industry, and engineering — so every batch is steered toward precise, scalable, and traceable. The result is a manufacturing layer that turns nutrition policy into product reality.

Transforming Nutrition with AI, One Grain at a Time.
Our vision
Who We Serve

One Platform. Three Tailored Solutions.

Whether you educate, manufacture, or engineer — Meallions connects your work to the same intelligent network.

For Education

Train Students on Real Industry Processes

Most food science graduates have never operated an industrial extruder. Meallions gives universities a simulation-first environment where students design recipes, configure extrusion parameters, and run virtual batches on digital twins of real equipment — building factory-floor confidence before they ever touch a machine.

Prepare graduates who are ready from Day 1. Issue verifiable simulation certificates. Align your curriculum to what the industry actually uses.

  • Simulation-only mode — no hardware needed
  • Curriculum-aligned extrusion modules
  • Student performance tracking and certification
  • Faculty scenario tooling and assessment
  • Safe environment to experiment, fail and learn
Core Platform

For Manufacturers

Plan, Simulate and Produce — Without the Risk

Replace spreadsheets and reactive QA with a full-cycle AI workflow. Meallions mirrors your specific extrusion line in software so you can predict yield, nutrition and energy consumption before committing raw material.

Adaptive fortification keeps micronutrient targets on spec despite ingredient variability. Every batch is verified, certified, and fully traceable — from raw intake to finished pallet.

  • Live ingredient market feeds reprice recipes in real time
  • Digital twin predicts yield, energy and retention pre-run
  • Real-time production control with automatic drift correction
  • Inline + lab QA reconciled before release
  • ISO 22000 / HACCP-aligned Certificates of Analysis
  • 60-second recall by ingredient lot

For Equipment Manufacturers

Turn Your Hardware Into a Smart Platform

Extrusion hardware is increasingly commoditised. Meallions gives OEMs a way to differentiate — by embedding digital twin capability directly into their machines.

Ship equipment that arrives connected. Let prospects simulate their own production scenarios on your machine before purchase. Build recurring software revenue on top of every unit sold.

  • Native OEM hardware integration (OPC UA / Modbus)
  • Co-branded simulation tool for pre-sale demos
  • Live telemetry, remote diagnostics, predictive maintenance
  • Performance benchmarking across your installed base
  • New software-attached recurring revenue stream
  • Built-in distribution via the Meallions manufacturer network

Platform

One platform from raw intake to certified shipment.

Built for fortified staple producers today — and designed to scale across every extrusion application tomorrow.

Replace siloed spreadsheets, paper QA logs and disconnected PLCs with a single production control platform built for fortified staples.

Adaptive fortification

Recipes adjust to incoming raw material variability so micronutrient targets stay on spec batch after batch.

Extrusion digital twin

Mirror your line in software. Predict pressure, energy and retention before the physical run.

Quality & traceability

Every lot, dosage and reading captured. 60-second recall from finished bag back to raw intake.

Audit-ready certificates

Generate Certificates of Analysis and compliance reports without spreadsheets or rework.

Workflow

A full-cycle AI workflow, from inventory to certificate.

Plan, experiment, simulate, produce, verify and certify on one platform — every step writes back to the same batch record, so office, control room and lab stay in sync.

01

Educate

See what's in your silos and what each ingredient costs today. Know exactly what you can produce — and at what margin — before planning a single batch.

02

Experiment

Set the nutrition and cost targets for the product. The platform suggests candidate recipes built from your approved ingredients and premixes.

03

Simulate

Test every recipe in the digital twin. Predict yield, nutrition and cost per tonne — and catch problems before the line is started.

04

Produce

Send the approved recipe to the extruder. The line follows the plan automatically and adjusts in real time to keep every batch on spec.

05

Verify

Lab and inline sensors cross-check the finished product against the recipe spec. Any deviation is flagged on the batch record before release.

06

Certify

Each batch is checked against its spec and gets a signed certificate of analysis — fully traceable from raw intake to finished pallet.

Predict the batch before you start it

The twin models your specific line — screw configuration, die geometry, moisture, throughput. It returns expected yield, nutrition retention and energy use, plus the operating window that keeps the batch on spec.

  • Compare scenarios side-by-side: cost vs. nutrition vs. throughput.
  • Catch off-spec risk hours before raw material is committed.
  • Approved scenario becomes the setpoint package for the line.
