What We're Building

Products built on taste intelligence.

We're building Decanto — a wine platform with two sides: a consumer app for personal discovery, and a trade platform for restaurants, distributors, and producers.

Decanto.

Wine discovery, rebuilt around your palate.

Our first product is a wine platform that learns how you actually taste — not what critics score, not what's trending, but what's genuinely suited to your sensory profile.

The core experience: you interact with wines, our system builds a fingerprint of your palate, and over time it gets better at finding things you'll love before you've tried them.

Decanto also operates as a trade platform — giving restaurants, distributors, and producers a way to connect their offerings to customers whose palates are actually matched to them.

Personal taste modeling

Your palate is structured data. We build and refine it with every interaction — not through surveys, but through the wines you actually engage with.

Expert-validated knowledge base

Every wine in our system is structured by credentialed sommeliers and sensory scientists. The intelligence starts with real expertise.

Beyond scores and ratings

Aggregate ratings tell you what most people think. We tell you what you'll think — based on a model of your specific palate.

02  ·  Data InfrastructureEarly Roadmap

The taste layer for the broader industry.

The same model that powers our consumer product will eventually be available as infrastructure — enabling retailers, importers, hospitality groups, and other platforms to build taste intelligence into their own products.

Taste-based personalization is a missing layer across the entire category. We're building it once, correctly, and making it accessible to the industry.

Potential applications

Taste-matched recommendations for wine retailers

Personalized pairing engines for hospitality

Sensory data layer for producers and importers

Category expansion beyond wine, over time

Our Approach

Getting the foundation right before scaling.

We're starting with wine because it's the world's most complex and culturally rich beverage category. If we can build a taste model that works here — across thousands of varietals, regions, producers, and vintages — we can apply the same approach to any sensory category.

Our build sequence is deliberate: structured knowledge first, consumer product second, industry infrastructure third. We're not trying to be everything at once. We're building the right foundation so that everything on top of it actually works.
