What Changes When You Use Ration Lab

Go From Profile to Recipe in Minutes

Stop cross-referencing nutrient tables by hand. Enter the patient details and Ration Lab handles the formulation — checking all 38 nutrients before you ever review the result.

Science-Backed Confidence

Every recipe is validated against all 38 essential nutrients defined by NRC guidelines — the internationally recognised standard in companion animal nutrition research. Ingredient data is sourced from USDA FoodData Central, with over 8,500 ingredients verified. Send clients home with diet plans you can stand behind.

Personalized for Every Patient

From growing juveniles to senior patients, high-activity to low-activity cases, renal management to weight control — generate recipes tailored to each patient's unique nutritional needs.

Send Clients Home with a Plan

Export polished nutrition reports with complete ingredient lists, feeding guides, and nutrient breakdowns — branded to your clinic, not ours. Hand clients a professional document they can follow at home.

No Recipe Is a Dead End

Client can't source a specific ingredient? The AI suggests substitutions that maintain nutritional balance, keeping every recipe practical and achievable.

Refine Through Conversation

Ask the AI why an ingredient was chosen, request swaps, or adjust for allergies. Every change automatically recalculates nutrient compliance in real time.

Common Questions

Is it safe to use AI-generated recipes for patients?

Every recipe is a starting point for your professional review, not a replacement for clinical judgment. The AI formulates against all 38 essential nutrients, flags deficiencies and excesses, and shows you the full compliance breakdown before you approve anything. You remain in control of every recommendation.

How is this different from BalanceIT or manual spreadsheets?

Unlike static spreadsheet tools, Ration Lab uses AI to formulate complete recipes from scratch rather than just checking nutrient targets against a manually assembled ingredient list. You can also refine any recipe through natural conversation — swap ingredients, adjust for allergies, or ask why something was included — and the AI recalculates compliance instantly. And unlike per-recipe pricing models, you get unlimited recipes at a flat monthly rate.

How do I get access during the beta?

Ration Lab is currently invite-only. If your email has been invited, you can create an account and start using the dashboard immediately. If you don't have an invite yet, contact us and we'll let you know when access opens up.

Is my patient data private and secure?

All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Patient profiles and recipes are isolated per account and never shared across accounts. Your data is not used to train AI models. We do not sell or share your information with third parties.
