Better Food, By Default
We’re powering a global movement for plant-forward, sustainable food systems.

We draw on behavioral science and storytelling to develop solutions that make plant-based food the easy choice, and we empower the changemakers who scale the solutions.
Make the Best Choice, the Easy Choice
Plant-Based by Default is a simple way to serve plant-rich food by default while preserving customers freedom to opt in for animal products. This simple shift reduces emissions, saves on food costs, and improves health of people and the planet.

Just as we always eat in community, we also need our community to make this transformative work possible.
There’s a lot of large-scale change that we could achieve in any of the institutions where food is served. Nudges are more than just quiet and discreet. They’re actively changing people’s attitudes in a positive direction towards plant-based foods.
