Data and Innovation
Data is a powerful lever for transforming food systems. By developing various tools, we equip decision‑makers with the data and insights needed to transform markets.
What we do
- Increase access to packaged food data with a focus on LMICs and UMICs to support better nutrition monitoring and analysis;
- Promote transparency by sharing our datasets openly in standardised, machine-readable formats in line with FAIR data principles;
- Make data actionable through visual dashboards in a user-friendly manner to explain the data to broader audiences;
- Develop tools to empower local stakeholders in assessing their own portfolios and identifying the policy gaps to improve nutrition outcomes.
Our core values
Transparency: We make nutrition-related data publicly available to empower stakeholders across the food system.
Interoperability: We design tools and datasets that can be integrated across platforms and geographies.
Impact: We focus on data that drives measurable change in market behavior, policy, and product development.
Innovation
Developing tools and resources that support open nutrition data, knowledge-sharing, and evidence-based decision-making.
NutriCheck
NutriCheck is a free self-assessment platform that allows SMEs and other stakeholders to evaluate their products and nutrition practices against key international standards.*
The tool includes three components: 1) Nutri-Score Calculator, 2) Health Star Rating Calculator, and 3) Nutrition Self-Assessment Survey.
*Results are indicative and intended for self-assessment purposes only. The survey is currently being updated to reflect country-specific nutrition policies.
Product Profile AI Assistant
ATNi is developing a chatbot that allows users to ask questions and create customized visualizations directly from our database of over 30 food and beverage companies’ assessment data. The prototype is currently under development.
In addition, ATNi published foundational guidance on the use of AI in nutrition research and applied these advances to the development of an AI‑enabled prototype of the Nutrition Transformation Hub.
