About ZBiotics
At ZBiotics, we make genetically engineered probiotics that improve daily life. As a group of motivated, yet down-to-earth people, we are fueled by two things: a love for science and a commitment to being people-first. GMO products like ours, designed to benefit individuals who use them directly, are the future. As the first to market, we believe it's our duty to set a high bar for product quality, safety, and transparency for others to follow.
In 2019, we launched the world's first genetically engineered probiotic: a 15mL probiotic drink designed to break down an alcohol byproduct that leads to rough mornings after drinking. Since then, ZBiotics' business has continued to grow rapidly year over year. We are preparing to launch our second product, a genetically engineered probiotic with a new function related to microbiome health.
ZBiotics is headquartered in San Francisco, CA, profitable, and backed by venture investors including Y Combinator, Khosla Ventures, and Social+Capital, among others.
