We’re Anniken and Eirik from Norway, founders of Agriris.
Our interest in health started the way it does for many people — through real-life challenges with energy, digestion, cravings, sleep, and stress.
We tried adding more. More supplements. More routines. More effort.
But the biggest shift came when we asked a better question:
How can we make healthy habits easier to repeat?
That question led us to sprouts and developing AutoSprout.
Sprouts are fresh, living food you can grow at home in just a few days.
They are nutrient-dense, affordable, and available all year — no garden needed.
But manual sprouting has one big problem:
It is easy to start, but hard to keep doing.
You have to rinse, drain, remember, clean, and avoid mold. When life gets busy, the habit disappears.
So we built AutoSprout to remove the friction.
It automates the rinsing process so more people can grow fresh sprouts at home with less effort, better consistency, and less waste.
To us, AutoSprout is more than a kitchen device.
It represents what Agriris is about – better systems for healthier everyday habits.
Agriris combines Agri — agriculture, food, growth, and nourishment and Iris — our first daughter, and a reminder of why this work matters.
Our mission is to build products that help families reconnect with real food and make healthy living more practical.
