The EVERY Company

The EVERY Company (Clara Foods prior to October 2021) is a FoodTech startup developing animal-free proteins using microbial fermentation with genetically modified yeast protein. The company had two commercialized ingredients—animal-free pepsin and EVERY Clearegg—while it debuted its third product, EVERY EggWhite, in March 2022.

The EVERY Company secured a new patent in September 2024 for its precision fermentation-derived ovalbumin. This  included variants with performance enhancements from various avian species, covering the use of the protein in a range of food formulations when combined with at least one additional consumable ingredient.

In 2021, the company became the first in the world to develop animal-free pepsin for commercial use. Later in 2021, it unveiled EVERY Clearegg, a co-branded product with BioBrew, and claimed to be the world’s first animal-free egg protein. Clearegg is highly soluble, nearly invisible, and can be used to boost the nutritional profile of products marketed to food producers. In December 2023, the company expanded its egg alternative range with the EVERY Egg, which is claimed to be the world's first liquid egg alternative made from precision fermented proteins.

EVERY’s products are sold globally by Ingredion, a leading ingredient provider serving customers in over 120 countries.
