A food ingredients scanner powered by AI. Scan the list of ingredients or barcode on any food packaging! Instantly spot harmful additives, discover superfoods, search for keywords, and find custom ingredients. Includes 10 free scans per day.

Tired of wondering what's really in your food? Food Ingredient Scanner uses your camera and advanced AI to read and analyze food ingredients—just like a human would, but faster and smarter.

No barcode? No problem. Our app doesn’t need one. Unlike competing apps that rely on barcodes, our app can read and interpret printed ingredients directly. Since it's not limited by the size of a database, it can analyze millions of products. A barcode just represents an ID number. Other apps typically use them to look up foods (and their ingredients) in a remote food database. Unfortunately, most of these databases are incomplete, slow, and outdated.

While nothing beats reading the real ingredients with AI, as a backup (when a food label is damaged or unreadable), our app lets you instantly scan barcodes too. The app can recognize barcodes and look up ingredients for close to a million different foods.

In 2-5 seconds, the app highlights every ingredient—flagging over 500 potentially harmful or controversial substances in red, and calling out over 300 superfoods in green. It also searches for your own custom keywords and ingredients. Tap on any red or green item to get a concise explanation of what it is and why it matters. It can even scan ingredients when the package is turned on its side or upside down.
