Plated was a meal-kit delivery company surfaced as a portfolio company of Slow Ventures and Techstars and added to the API Evangelist network for enrichment. The company was acquired by Albertsons in 2017 and later wound down; the plated.com domain now 301-redirects to safeway.com, and no independent developer portal, API reference, SDK, or well-known surface remains. This profile records the honest state of a defunct provider with no active API surface.
