Yaow Seamoss vs The Transformation Factory
How is Yaow different from The Transformation Factory?
Both sell flavoured sea moss gel, and the difference is how it reaches you. The Transformation Factory sells jars that sit on a shelf. We make each one after the order arrives, in a Houston kitchen, from a single named source, and ship it cold. Theirs costs less per ounce. Ours is fresher.
Key takeaways
- Yaow makes gel in 16 oz and 32 oz, plus bottled refreshers, freezer pops, and raw sea moss — a format for most routines. see section
- Yaow names its source openly — organic Purple African sea moss from East Africa — and lab-tests it at multiple stages. see section
- Yaow's 16 oz gel is $45, a little above The Transformation Factory's $39.99; the difference goes to fresh, made-to-order production in Houston. see section
The Transformation Factory is probably the best-known sea moss brand in America after its Shark Tank appearance, and plenty of Houston customers ask us how Yaow compares. Fair question. Here is an honest side-by-side, using their own website’s claims, last checked in October 2026, and ours.
What does each company actually sell?
The Transformation Factory sells sea moss gel in 8 oz and 16 oz jars plus sea moss gummies, with multi-jar bundles listed from $79.99 on their site. Yaow Seamoss makes gel in 16 oz and 32 oz jars, real-fruit bottled refreshers, moss pops, raw sea moss, and wholesale cases. If you want sea moss you can drink cold from a bottle or hand to a kid as a freezer pop, that is us.
Where does the sea moss come from?
Their site describes wildcrafted sea moss. Ours names the source: organic Purple African Seamoss, hand harvested off the corals of East Africa, never pool-grown, never bleached, and lab-tested at multiple stages from sourcing through production. We like naming our exact harvest waters, so you can check the claim for yourself.
How do the prices compare?
Their 16 oz gel lists around $39.99 before discounts; ours is $45. We will not pretend to be the cheapest jar. The difference buys made-fresh-to-order preparation in Houston, a named single source, and flavors built on real fruit rather than added sweetness.
Who is each brand for?
If you want the biggest brand name in the category, they earned it. If you want sea moss made this week in Texas, in more formats, with the source printed plainly, start here. Houston-area orders also get the shortest transit in the business.
The Transformation Factory is also the brand behind the Shark Tank episode; the honest recap is on which sea moss was on Shark Tank.
