From what I understand, they're not planning to go into the low-carb-high-protein market, as there is already a giant protein powder industry out there to cover that kind of need.
I'd love to be wrong though, as I usually do 40P/25C/35F and I would LOVE to not have to spend a hours every weekend doing meal-prep, having to plan just how much food I need delivered, stuffing everything into tuppowerare etc. Would love to do something more enjoyable and useful with that time.
Maybe I'm in a bubble, but I feel like there's an unmet need for healthy (arguably, powdered food is likely not in this category), quickly available, hassle free and nutrition-plan specific meals out there. I can't find anybody who addresses this need though. Idea for YC2016, please? :)

Most of them are made to target different goals (weight loss, allergen avoidance, bodybuilding, etc) and come with Amazon links so you can just add all the components to your cart at once. http://diy.soylent.com/recipes http://diy.soylent.com/recipes
