Nourish has raised $100 million in a Series C funding round as the virtual nutrition-focused healthcare provider expands into broader metabolic care services by adding physicians to its platform.
The funding round was led by Menlo Ventures, with participation from Thrive Capital, Index Ventures, J.P. Morgan Growth Equity Partners, Maverick Ventures, and Y Combinator.
The company said the new capital will support workforce expansion, AI development, and payer and health system partnerships.
Founded four years ago, Nourish has primarily operated as a virtual nutrition platform connecting patients with registered dietitians. The company is now expanding into a more comprehensive metabolic health model by hiring physicians and adding services including lab testing, GLP-1 prescriptions, and broader virtual care offerings.
According to the company, there is currently a waitlist for physician appointments, with plans to scale physician hiring by the end of 2026.
Nourish said its platform integrates AI tools for both patients and providers. Patients receive access to an AI health agent that supports scheduling, meal planning, lab interpretation, coaching, and other functions through the company’s mobile application.
For clinicians, the platform includes AI-powered documentation tools, research assistants, messaging systems, and recommendation engines trained on historical clinical encounters.
The company has also expanded its GLP-1 companion program, which combines nutrition counseling with obesity medications. Around 15% of Nourish patients currently use GLP-1 therapies, according to executives.
Nourish said it focuses on offering brand-name GLP-1 medications through insurance coverage or at-cost pricing rather than generating revenue from prescriptions.
The company cited findings from a 2024 peer-reviewed analysis showing patients enrolled in its GLP-1 support program achieved stronger weight-loss outcomes and improved medication adherence compared to non-Nourish patients.
Nourish said it became profitable in 2025 and has now raised a total of $215 million. The platform currently works with more than 10,000 registered dietitians and partners with payers covering over 200 million lives. More than 250 health systems also refer patients to the company.
The company claims its care model delivers more than $2,000 in annual savings per patient for payers.
