Air Protein

Air Protein is a Bay Area food-technology company producing a nutrient-dense, meat-alternative protein made from elements found in the air. Its carbon-conversion fermentation process — derived from NASA closed-loop life-support research — combines carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitrogen, water and renewable energy with hydrogenotrophic microbes to grow a protein flour, which it then transforms into whole-food "air meat" products. Founded by CEO Dr. Lisa Dyson, the company aims to decouple protein production from land and animal agriculture. Added to the API Evangelist network as a portfolio company of GV; it publishes a marketing site but no developer API surface.

Air Protein is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Frontier Tech, Food Technology, Alternative Protein, and Fermentation.

Air Protein’s developer surface includes FAQ, support, and 6 more developer resources.
