Nutrition API for Wellness Platforms

Wellness platforms win deals with breadth: challenges, coaching, habit tracking, and nutrition. Embedding food logging and macro insights through an API turns a quarter-long data project into a sprint.

Commercial licensing is explicit (one header on a Plus or Enterprise plan), limits are per account so multi-tenant architectures just work, and stable food IDs keep your per-tenant caches simple.

Built for your product's hardest problems

Nutrition is table stakes, not your core product

Ship logging and macro features on top of the API instead of building a food database team.

Multi-tenant architectures complicate limits

Per-account rate limiting means one integration serves every tenant; size the plan to aggregate volume.

Procurement asks about licensing

Commercial use is an explicit, documented plan feature, no ambiguous terms to negotiate around.

Product needs → API endpoints

Each need in your roadmap maps to a documented endpoint you can try in the playground today.

Nutrition API for Wellness Platforms: frequently asked questions

How does licensing work for a B2B2C platform?

Your platform is the API customer: one commercial plan (Plus or Enterprise) covers your tenants. Send X-API-Usage-Type: commercial and size the plan to aggregate volume.

Can we white-label the nutrition features?

Yes, the API is invisible infrastructure. Your UI, your brand; the API only supplies data.

What happens when our volume grows past a plan?

Upgrades apply immediately from the dashboard, and Enterprise plans negotiate custom rate limits and quotas when you outgrow self-serve tiers.
