JellyCo delivers naturally clean, safe, and sustainable collagen harvested exclusively from wild-caught American jellyfish.
JellyCo is more than just sourcing, harvesting, and producing the highest-quality collagen derived from jellyfish – it’s about driving meaningful progress. By sustainably sourcing and manufacturing 100% wild-caught Georgia jellyfish in the U.S., we’re pioneering next-generation bioactive solutions that support America’s Blue Economy.
Our Mission: To be America’s top Blue Economy innovator, delivering the highest-quality, scientifically backed marine products that enrich lives, strengthen communities, and sustain our coasts.
Our oceans are abundant yet fragile, and Georgia jellyfish, often seen as a nuisance and an overabundant species, present an opportunity to transform an ecological challenge into an economic solution.
JellyCo is working to revolutionize Georgia’s Blue Economy by diversifying its product portfolio, beginning with jellyfish, bringing back critical jobs and economic prosperity to these communities.
Our expert fishermen harvest jellyfish at the perfect time, ensuring only the freshest, highest-quality jellyfish become JellyCo products.
Using our proprietary process, we transform these jellyfish into low molecular weight collagen peptides called SimplySEA™. No by-products. No fillers. Just pure, natural collagen. The way nature intended.
Be confident in where your collagen comes from. Unlike most with unknown origins, SimplySEA™ is 100% Georgia jellyfish and we’re revolutionizing collagen with Earth’s Cleanest Collagen™.
SimplySEA™ is our most advanced collagen formula yet. Sourced from jellyfish and backed by science, it sets a new standard in clean beauty & health. Cosmetics are only the beginning as this food-grade ingredient unlocks vast potential for next-generation supplements, biotech applications, and more!
Traditional collagen is often extracted from animal by-products using heavy processing and chemical treatments. In contrast, Georgia jellyfish are naturally composed of just three components: water, protein, and minerals.
Thanks to this remarkable simplicity, we’re able to gently separate out the water and minerals, leaving behind a clean, high-quality protein, most of which is natural collagen. From there, our proprietary process uses minimal intervention to transform it into premium collagen peptides, what we call SimplySEA™.
It’s collagen from the sea, reimagined in the purest way possible. Minimal energy use and waste. That’s why we call it Earth’s Cleanest Collagen™.
We use the cannonball jellyfish. A native Georgia jellyfish species.
Jellyfish are not classified as a major food allergen under FDA regulations. However, individuals with fish or shellfish allergies, particularly those allergic to mollusks, may be at risk of experiencing allergic reactions to jellyfish. While jellyfish collagen is distinct from traditional fish and shellfish sources, allergy sensitivities can vary from person to person. If you have concerns, we always recommend consulting a healthcare professional before consuming or using jellyfish-based products.
Yes, our species has been harvested and consumed in Asian markets for over 30 years. The difference? We isolate its key ingredient, collagen, and transform it into a pure, versatile powder that goes far beyond food, delivering its powerful benefits across a range of applications.
Georgia jellyfish have a relatively short life cycle, reaching maturity within 3 to 6 months and living approximately 6 to 9 months in their natural habitat.
Great question! While researchers often say yes, no comprehensive population studies have fully explored this in depth. What we do know is that jellyfish are highly adaptable to changing ocean conditions, like temperature, pH, and acidity. Because of their short lifespans and simpler biology, the leading hypothesis is that jellyfish can adapt more quickly than higher trophic level species such as cod and tuna.
As their life cycle reaches its final stage, jellyfish naturally wash up on shore, marking the end of their journey in the ocean. Rather than letting these incredible creatures go to waste, our mission is to give them a new purpose through upcycling. By transforming them into valuable resources beneficial to humans, we not only reduce environmental impact but also turn what would be discarded into something meaningful. It’s about celebrating sustainability and making the most of nature’s gifts!
Jellyfish collagen is a powerful marine-derived ingredient known to support skin hydration, elasticity, and the reduction of visible wrinkles. By stimulating the natural production of collagen and elastin, it helps restore firmness and promote a smoother, more radiant complexion. Its natural antioxidant properties further support the skin’s defense against everyday environmental stressors, leaving it looking healthier and revitalized.
SimplySEA™ is a rich source of both essential and nonessential amino acids, setting it apart as a distinct and valuable form of marine collagen. Glycine is the predominant amino acid and has been detected in concentrations up to 48% higher than those found in traditional bovine collagen. Jellyfish collagen also contains notably high levels of hydroxylysine, one of the highest among known natural sources, differentiating it further from bovine and fish-based alternatives.
Additional amino acids such as glutamic acid, alanine, aspartic acid, proline, hydroxyproline, arginine, and threonine contribute to its distinct composition, supporting superior bioavailability and offering promising benefits for overall health and wellness.

SimplySEA™ delivers a highly advanced collagen profile, crafted through our proprietary process to yield a rich concentration of naturally low molecular weight peptides, targeting 2 kDa in size.
What makes our collagen stand out is its unique origin and processing. The natural structure of jellyfish collagen allows for the formation of small peptides without requiring extreme processing or harsh chemicals. This approach results in a cleaner, more sustainable product with enhanced bioavailability and functional potential, paving the way for more effective and eco-conscious formulations.
Great question! After years of jellyfish research, our team learned something pretty amazing. SimplySEA™ collagen is truly one of a kind. Because jellyfish are invertebrates, their collagen doesn’t follow the same naming rules “type I/II/III” you’ve probably seen. That makes it a fresh, exciting new source of skin-nourishing peptides you won’t find anywhere else.
What really sets SimplySEA™ apart is our proprietary process. We’ve carefully optimized it to produce low molecular weight peptides that are easier for your body to absorb. Thanks to our unique method, the final product is cleaner, more effective, and refreshingly subtle in scent. Plus, the distinct amino acid profile may further support enhanced bioavailability, helping you get more from every use!
