About
Cancer treatment is precise.
Nutrition advice isn't. Yet.
Oncologists choose treatments based on the molecular profile of your tumor — which genes are mutated, which pathways are disrupted, which drugs target them. But when patients ask “what should I eat?” the available guidance rarely reflects any of that molecular detail.
addon was built to close that gap. We map the molecular overlap between cancer biology and nutrition — the same genes, the same pathways, the same interactions — so that dietary guidance can be as specific as the treatment it accompanies.
Our team
addon is built by a team with deep experience in computational oncology, machine learning, and biomedical data systems. We come from backgrounds in cancer genomics research, personalization engineering, and clinical data infrastructure.
We've spent years studying how cancer biology, nutrition, and treatment interact at the molecular level — and we built addon because patients deserve more than generic dietary advice when the science exists to do better.
How we build
addon is powered by a knowledge graph that connects foods, bioactive compounds, genes, biological pathways, cancer types, and chemotherapy drugs. We pull from over a dozen curated biomedical databases and use published research to verify every relationship in the graph.
When you enter your diagnosis and treatment, addon extracts the subgraph relevant to your cancer and scores every food and supplement based on how it interacts with your specific biology. Every recommendation traces back to a real mechanism and real evidence.
What addon is not
addon is a research tool — not a replacement for your oncologist, nutritionist, or any member of your care team. We don't diagnose, prescribe, or make treatment decisions.
What we do is surface information that's already in the scientific literature and make it accessible in the context of your specific cancer. Our goal is to give you and your care team better questions to ask — and better evidence to discuss.
