The challenge

Where teams get stuck today

Effective ingredient discovery requires deep formulation expertise and the ability to balance multiple constraints at once. In practice, teams often rely on manual search processes that focus on keywords rather than holistic fit, making it difficult to evaluate trade-offs between performance, sustainability, cost, and supply chain resilience in a structured way.

Our solution

How Covalo helps

Covalo uses AI-powered recommendation capabilities built on structured ingredient data to surface optimized candidates based on your requirements.

Teams can:

  • Generate ingredient shortlists based on formulation goals and constraints
  • Balance multiple criteria such as performance, sustainability, cost, and supply reliability
  • Discover relevant options beyond keyword-based search results
  • Enable less specialized team members to explore viable formulation paths
  • Accelerate early-stage formulation decision-making

This helps teams move from open-ended exploration to structured, high-quality candidate selection.
