Bon'App, Inc. is a social enterprise in Cambridge, Massachusetts founded by Laurent Adamowicz, a 2011 Senior Fellow of the Advanced Leadership Initiative at Harvard University. A leader in weight loss innovation and technology, Bon'App has a mission to fight the nation’s obesity epidemic and become the new standard for weight loss through nutrition education. Bon'App is an open platform that includes applications for Apple mobile devices, Android phones, and a website. The Bon'App application is type- and voice-powered, instantly telling users what is in their food with a simple language of calories, sugar, salt, and "bad fat" (the sum of saturated fat and trans fat).
