Our mission
Pursuit's mission is to empower individuals and communities to live healthier lives through equitable habit solutions.
90% of shoppers are health-motivated but need guidance to turn that motivation into action.
How it started
Sisters Eva and Olivia Weinstein are on a mission to make healthy eating easier. Their journey started when they were young. They grew up with a working, single parent and witnessed first-hand how limited bandwidth can make a healthy lifestyle difficult to maintain.
They believe that better health can be achieved by creating simple, healthy eating habits. After years of research, experimenting, and working with clients, they came up with a solution. They created Pursuit, a technology that makes healthy eating easy in the short-term while training your brain to make healthy foods your default option.
