About the company

The EVERY Company creates animal-free protein, especially vegan egg protein, using precision fermentation to produce high-quality ingredients for food and beverage brands. Its products are not finished consumer foods but protein ingredients that manufacturers incorporate into vegan-friendly foods such as beverages and baked goods. The process works by using precision fermentation to grow microbial systems that produce specific proteins, which are then harvested and processed into usable ingredients. The company distinguishes itself through strategic B2B partnerships with large players like Ingredion and AB InBev BioBrew, enabling global distribution and scale, rather than competing as a consumer-brand producer. The goal is to supply scalable, sustainable, ethical protein ingredients to food brands, helping them meet rising demand for plant-based and animal-free options.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Orders rose 550% in early 2026, triggering quadrupled output and ADM scale-up.
  • Healthier Comforts launched the first consumer OvoPro powder on Amazon in March 2026.
  • Mario Patiño joined as CRO in April 2026 to push global retail expansion.

What critics are saying

  • Precision-fermented eggs still face brutal price competition from Cal-Maine, Avian flu, and whey.
  • EU approval remains unfinished in 2026, blocking Palacios and Vegetarian Butcher scale.
  • If Walmart or Target de-emphasize OvoPro, EVERY loses its fastest validation channel.

What makes Every unique

  • OvoPro won FDA GRAS letters in October 2023 and broad retail trust.
  • EVERY powers Walmart and Target products with functional ovalbumin matching egg-white performance.
  • ADM and Huvepharma give EVERY multi-continent manufacturing leverage unavailable to most fermenters.

EVERY names Mario Patiño as first CRO following Walmart rollout of precision-fermented proteins

The EVERY Company has appointed Mario Patiño as its first Chief Revenue Officer following its nationwide expansion into Walmart and Target stores. The San Francisco-based precision-fermentation startup produces animal-free protein ingredients for the food industry. Patiño joins from Insight M, where he served as CRO and built international business strategy. He has previously closed over $250 million in customer contracts and built multi-billion dollar pipelines whilst commercialising novel technologies at scale. As CRO, Patiño will drive US mass market adoption, lead global expansion into Latin America, EMEA and Asia-Pacific, and scale commercial infrastructure to meet demand for EVERY's flagship OvoPro product. The appointment follows the company's recent Series D funding round and marks an inflection point as EVERY transitions from concept validation to global scale.

Healthier Comforts launches first consumer animal-free egg white protein powder using EVERY's OvoPro™

The EVERY Company is supplying its precision-fermented egg white protein, OvoPro™, to Healthier Comforts for the first time, making the ingredient available to consumers. Healthier Comforts' Animal-Free Egg White Protein Powder launches on its website and Amazon in an 8oz resealable bag designed for home cooking and baking. Previously available only to food manufacturers in bulk, OvoPro™ addresses a gap in the vegan market for functional egg white replacements suitable for meringues, macarons and angel food cake. The product soft-launched in December 2025 and sold out quickly after gaining attention in vegan communities on Reddit. The partnership began when Healthier Comforts founder Aaron Vander Heyden met EVERY at IFT First in Chicago, recognising the potential to serve home cooks with a retail-ready format.
