Ben McKean, Founder & CEO of Hungryroot

Ben McKean is the founder of Hungryroot, the AI-powered grocery assistant built to make food decisions easier.

Ben McKean founded Hungryroot with a clear thesis: most people don't want to think about food, they want food to work for them. The result is an AI-powered grocery platform that learns your preferences and handles the decisions most people find exhausting.

Hungryroot has become one of the most interesting case studies at the intersection of AI and consumer behavior—a brand that is genuinely using technology to change the relationship between people and what they eat.

Ben joins Beanstalk to talk about that intersection, and what he's learned building a brand that sits somewhere between grocery, meal kits, and personalization software.
