NIH launches challenge to turn supplement fact sheets into digital experiences

The Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has announced the “Supplements, Facts First: A Digital Adventure for Every Age” challenge to transform dietary supplement fact sheets into engaging digital experiences. NASA’s Center of Excellence for Collaborative Innovation (CoECI) supports crowdsourcing across the federal government, and CoECI’s NASA Tournament Lab provides contract capability to run external crowdsourced challenges for NASA and other agencies.

The competition aims to catalyze innovative multimedia strategies to bridge a stated gap between authoritative supplement information and meaningful public engagement. It seeks prototypes that move static fact sheets into more interactive and accessible formats.

Targeted modalities include behavior change and health information apps, social media content, AI-enabled tools, serialized video and broadcast content, and other technology. The challenge offers $869,000 in total prizes.

The challenge opened January 20, 2026, and closes April 6, 2026. For more information, the announcement directs interested parties to https://www.herox.com/SupplementsFactsFirst/.
