Shopify for Science-Backed Consumer Products

What if the research you heard about on Huberman or saw on Reddit could be rapidly validated, productized and shipped to your front door?

At DeSci Abu Dhabi, Bio CEO @paulkhls, announced Bio is building a platform for consumer products created and validated by research communities in the Bio Network. Think of it as Shopify for open science: a place where self-experimentation meets scientific rigor, and where products aren’t just sold, but continuously tested in the open.

Timed with the post-Christmas wellness wave, various products will debut alongside Ignition Sales for new DeSci projects, uniting purchases, product feedback, and capital formation into a single growth loop.

Initial products will include @Dermadao's skin care products, @Cerebrum_DAO's brain health formulations, @psy_dao's psychedelic tinctures & more.

For consumers, the goal is to replace opaque marketplaces and empty “clinically proven” claims with verifiable provenance - clear sourcing, visible lab data, and real feedback from research communities. For DeSci organizations, it is a direct line to the real world: a place to launch products, learn from real usage, and collect data and insight that feed back into ongoing research.

The world doesn't need another supplement brand. It needs a credible bridge between frontier science and lived experience. More details coming very soon.
