Ripple Foods Accelerates Innovation with Uncountable’s Unified R&D Platform

How Ripple Foods transformed their research efficiency, reduced redundant testing, and brought plant-based products to market faster.

“Having a single source of truth has prevented costly errors and improved efficiency in bringing products to market. We estimate that using Uncountable has helped save us at least a half-day of work per week per scientist.”

Andy Seaberg
VP of R&D, Ripple Foods

About the customer

Ripple Foods is a leader in plant-based dairy alternatives, committed to providing nutritious, high-protein, and sustainable food options. Berkeley, California-based, they develop innovative products using protein from yellow peas, including plant-based milk, protein shakes, and half & half.

The challenge: before Uncountable

Ripple Foods faced significant challenges managing its R&D operations effectively. Scientists relied on multiple disconnected tools — spreadsheets, electronic lab notebooks, internal systems, and statistical software like Minitab and JMP — that did not integrate seamlessly. The lack of a centralized system led to excessive time spent managing data, increased risk of redundant experiments, and delays in product development.

Finding the right partner

After evaluating multiple vendors, Ripple selected Uncountable for its user-friendly interface, robust customer support, and flexible data analysis capabilities. A critical factor was Uncountable’s ability to integrate seamlessly with external lab partners, automating data pipelines and reducing the time required to process and interpret third-party results.

“What stood out about Uncountable was its flexibility and adaptability to our specific needs. Unlike rigid off-the-shelf solutions, Uncountable provided a platform that could grow with us.” — Nitika Dhamankar, Director of R&D
