Are you vegan, vegetarian, or cutting out animal products?
Food Check AI scans any food label in seconds and tells you exactly what's animal-derived - no barcode needed.
Hidden animal ingredients are everywhere. Carmine (crushed insects) hides in red juice. Gelatine hides in vitamin capsules. L-Cysteine (from feathers) hides in your bread. Food Check AI reads 500+ animal-derived substances so you don't have to.
HOW IT WORKS:
1. Snap to Scan: Photo the barcode or ingredient list
2. AI Analyses: Every ingredient checked against 500+ animal-derived substances in under 2 seconds
3. Know Before You Buy: Vegan, Not Vegan, Check
WHAT VEGANS LOVE ABOUT FOOD CHECK AI:
NO BARCODE NEEDED
Point your camera at the ingredient list directly. Works on local brands, imported products, farmers market items, and restaurant menus - everything barcode apps fail on.
WORKS ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD
Barcode databases are region-locked. We read what's printed on the label - so whether you're shopping in New York, London, Berlin, or Tokyo, you always get an accurate result.
WHAT WE DETECT:
* Carmine (E120), shellac (E904), isinglass - insect/fish-derived additives
* Gelatine, casein, whey, sodium caseinate - hidden dairy and animal proteins
* L-Cysteine (E920), E471 - ambiguous animal-sourced additives
* "Natural flavouring" and "spices" - flagged when origin is unclear
JAIN VERIFIED - UNIQUE FEATURE
The only food scanner with a dedicated Jain mode. Flags onions, garlic, root vegetables, and Jain-specific non-compliant ingredients including when hidden under terms like "spices." No other app offers this.
ALL DIETS SUPPORTED:
Vegan, Vegetarian, Jain, Gluten-Free, Lactose-Free, Allergen-Free
Download free. Just snap and know.
So first of all, great app amazing concept… If it would work, it doesn’t work one bit. I tried scanning pop tarts, just for a test I scan the barcode nothing so that I’m like oh well maybe it’s just a glitch so then I try to enter the barcode. Nothing then I was like well maybe there was just a mistake on the barcode or something so I tried the ingredients. Nothing I do not recommend at all unless if you just want to save your grocery list which you could just do that in notes. Sorry this is so long, but I am just so upset. please please do not download horrible. Please fix this. I am really so upset. I’m going vegetarian in two days so I’m trying to find an app that will help me do that.
