ScanWise

Know what is in it before you buy it

ScanWise reads a barcode or a photo of the label and shows a health score you can actually check — every point of it traced back to an ingredient and a source.

A score that shows its working

Every product breaks down into a ledger — what each additive, nutrient and processing signal added or subtracted. No single mystery number.

Additives explained, with citations

587 additives, each with a plain-language verdict and links to EFSA, IARC and the published studies behind it. Nothing invented.

Food and cosmetics

The same treatment for an INCI list as for an ingredients label — the two things hardest to read in a shop.

Works in the aisle

Scoring runs on your device, so a supermarket basement with no signal is still a place you can check a label.

The additive directory

Search 587 food additives by E-number or by the name printed on the pack — 26 of them carry a high-risk verdict, and 587 have a full write-up covering regulatory status, documented concerns and how they are made.
