    Foodpairing uses Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform to predict consumer tastes

    Foodpairing · Automotive operations automation · GCP

    Foodpairing (Belgium) uses Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform and Gemini with BigQuery, Cloud Run, Cloud Storage, Cloud SQL, Firebase, and Google Kubernetes Engine to predict consumer tastes. The company digitizes lab measurements for 100 products per day, streams them into Cloud Storage and BigQuery, and uses roughly 200,000 digital twins plus Gemini-powered agents to simulate reactions to new flavors and packaging. The article claims more than 75% correlation with real consumer panels and says the briefing-to-formulation cycle dropped from 18 months to days.
