MealMe offers a unified API that embeds food and retail ordering into consumer apps and websites. The company launched in 2019 as a consumer app and later pivoted fully to a B2B model, selling its ordering infrastructure to other businesses. Its API provides real-time product pricing and availability and enables customers to order from local stores. MealMe says it has inventory data on more than 1 billion products from over 1.2 million grocery stores, restaurants, and retailers across the U.S. and Canada. It currently serves more than 100 customers, including Fantuan Delivery, Favor Delivery, and TripAdvisor. The company plans to use new funding to strengthen marketing, grow the team to deliver better developer support to enterprise customers, and expand into broader e-commerce and AI. MealMe.ai is a food search engine that lets users search for food or restaurants, displays price points from various food-delivery apps, and supports in-app checkout regardless of provider. The product aims to boost pricing and delivery-speed transparency across apps like DoorDash and Uber Eats. The company began as a food-focused social network and pivoted after users used posts to find ordering options. MealMe rolled out in-app checkout in September 2020 to capture more gross merchandise value (GMV) inside its app. The startup has grown roughly 20% week-on-week and reached a GMV run rate above $1 million. Its business model appears to be earning margin between what it charges users and the revenue it passes to delivery apps, and the team plans to scale quickly to become a formal revenue partner for major delivery platforms.
