## About Kingdom

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Kingdom designs and supplies clinically-validated postbiotic ingredients (Superculture®) that address pet health needs at their root, enabling pet product brands to create effective, science-backed solutions.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Grant round; Total Funding $30.89M)
- **Headquarters**: Brooklyn, New York, USA
- **Founded**: 2019
- **Founders**: Ravi Sheth (Co-founder & Chief Scientific Officer) and an unnamed Co-founder & CEO

## Core Business
- **Primary industry/industries**: Pet health ingredients / Functional ingredients for consumer packaged goods (originally food & beverage, now focused on pet)
- **Target customers**: B2B – pet product brands (e.g., Dinovite, Native Pet, Woof) that incorporate Superculture® ingredients into their own products
- **Mission or purpose statement**: “Make a measurable impact on consumer health by harnessing the power of natural microbes.”

## Products & Services
- **Superculture® Ingredient Platform**: A range of clinically-validated fermentates that target specific pet health needs (e.g., oral hygiene, skin health). The company develops, validates, and supplies these proprietary ingredients to brand partners.
- **Superculture Pet Oral**: A postbiotic ingredient proven in peer-reviewed studies to reduce canine bad breath and positively shift the oral microbiome within 7–14 days.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly available (private company)
- **Key Metric**: **Total Funding** – $30.89M raised to date; latest round: Grant – IV (last raised $650K ~3 years ago)
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Pioneer Fund, Evolv Ventures, Shine Capital, National Science Foundation, and 11 other investors.
- **Growth Signals**:
  - 11 total clinical trials completed; 5 peer-reviewed publications across the Superculture® line
  - Two new studies published May 2026 on Superculture Pet Oral
  - Products used by leading pet brands (Dinovite, Native Pet, Woof)
  - Team combines PhD microbiologists, data scientists, and industry leaders; ~25–50 employees (estimated from team page)

## Competitive Advantages
- **Clinically validated efficacy**: Rigorous trials prove observable results (e.g., 26% reduction in bad breath compounds within 14 days), differentiating from “marketing-only” competitors.
- **Root-cause approach**: Ingredients target underlying mechanisms rather than merely masking symptoms.
- **Intellectual property**: 3 patents granted (bacteriology, fermented drinks, lactobacillaceae) – protects proprietary fermentate technology.
- **Scientific credibility**: Published in peer-reviewed journals; led by a co-founder with a PhD and a team of research scientists.

## Strategic Focus
- **Current priorities**: Expand clinical evidence base for existing ingredients, introduce new Superculture® variants for additional pet health areas, and deepen partnerships with major pet brands.
- **Direction**: Capitalize on the “humanization of pets” trend, where pet owners demand the same level of clinical proof and clean ingredients they expect for themselves.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: “Brilliant, innovative, and kind” team; values include collaboration, resourcefulness, and first-principles problem-solving.
- **Team composition**: Mix of PhD microbiologists, data scientists, and business leaders from organizations like Gates Foundation, McKinsey, Columbia, and NYU Langone.
- **Compensation & perks**:
  - Above-market compensation + equity (example: Operations Manager salary $110K–$130K)
  - 100% company-paid health insurance
  - Extended fully-paid parental leave
  - Generous and flexible PTO
  - 401(k) program with minimal fees
  - Full commuter coverage (indicating a Brooklyn office)
  - Fully stocked kitchen + weekly team lunches
- **Work model**: Based in Brooklyn (141 Flushing Ave); roles listed as “Full time” at HQ – hybrid/remote policy not explicitly stated, but commuter benefits suggest regular office attendance.
- **Career growth**: Emphasis on rapid professional acceleration and ownership; small team provides visibility into all parts of the business.
